Is there a way to estimate a 60 yard time from a 40 yard time??

I guess for baseball the 60 is the defining distance and a 6.8 is mlb avg was just wondering if a conversion exists to estimate this??

6.8 is a combine average or the actual on field average?

No way to estimate but Shane Victorino set the Hawaii 100 meter record 10.80

I would probably take the last 10 to 20 yards of the 40 time and extend it out because that is when you are at your fastest in the 40. Then I'd probably add some arbitrary fatigue metric to the final number since the athlete might slow down a bit at 60 yards.
I made this all up.

Strange that sixty yards would be the defining distance. the bases are only 30 yards apart and only one third of the defense plays in and area that requires you to run frther.

Going from 2nd to home. or 1st to 3rd. I think they just time those actual runs vs 60yd dash though.

Dominic Brown was listed at a 4.5- 40 before opting to play baseball

why wouldn't you take the time and distance you know and divide them, multiply that by the other distance to get a rough estimate?
6.8/60 = .11333
.11333 * 40 = 4.533 or an estimated 4.53 40 time, maybe bump it up to a couple of hundreth's to 4.56 or something

Actually, you can estimate different distances. I could not do it that well, but you can use "running calculators" that will give you a very good estimation.

Take the max speed, subtract 1 mph, and extrapolate that time for the last 20 yards and add it to the previous time.

Some people run that last twenty yards a lot faster than the first part and vice versa. that's what i meant by "no"
