Can anyone tell me the formula to calculate speed if I know the lap time and
size of the track? I used to know..but it has slipped my mind. Thanks.

Distance divided by time = speed
formula is:
distance
-------- = speed
time
if you want MPH, then you must convert time to hours by multiplying by
3600 (which is the number of secs in an hour).
Ex for a 1 mile track:
1
----- x 3600 = 186.528 MPH
19.3s
Ex for a 2.432 mile track:
2.432
----- x 3600 = 150.175 MPH
58.3s
