    Question: What speed will the team that wins RTL average for the entire
    race?

    - 20 kph (12.4 mph)
    - 21 kph (13 mph)
    - 22 kph (13.6 mph)
    - 23 kph (14.3 mph)
    - 24 kph (14.9 mph)
    - 25 kph (15.5 mph)
    - 26 kph (16.1 mph)
    - 27 kph (16.7 mph)
    - 28 kph (17.4 mph)
    - 29 kph (18 mph)

    There has been a lot of talk about the speeds people get on their RTL
    race setups, but the reality of RTL will be that your overall team
    speed will be quite a bit slower than your top speed or even your
    cruising speed. Transitions, traffic lights, missed turns, mechanical
    problems, and UPDs will eat into everyone's overall speed. I expect
    that every team will have to deal with some of the above circumstances;
    it's a long race.

    So, what do you think the winning team will manage as an average speed?
