I say NO (to the pants), and someone was in the backseat giving him a reach-around.
This is a strange thread here.

This is the common assumption. However, you cannot average MPH over two different time periods. For example, in your answer, Warrt would drive for 1 hour @ 40mph then for 20 minutes @ 120mph. You cannot average these two numbers for average total speed, because you'd have to keep driving @ 120mph for a full hour (to match the full hour @ 40mph).

Thats how he drives so fast in the 1/4 mile! He spills his hot coffee on his crinkle-bag when the light goes green. Maybe we should move away from talking about Warrtalon driving "Comando", it is getting close to dinner time.

Yeah, because he's already passed the half way point, at the fully allotted time. It would have been possible if he noticed when he had gone less then half the distance or traveled at a rate more than 40 mph (to the half way mark).

fun fun...
