    Convert everything to one base unit (let's do ft/s in this case)

    There are 660 ft in a furlong and 2 weeks or 1209600 seconds in a fortnight

    Multiply 537,600furlong and 660 ft/furlong and divide by 1209600 to get 293.333ft/s

    The race car is already in ft/s

    There are 30.48 cm in 1 foot and 3600 seconds in 1 hour. Multiply 9,000,000 by 1/30.48 and 1/3600 to get 82.02ft/s

    THe peregrine falcon is the fastest
