Let's say the room is 100 feet long, makes that straightaway look about 75 feet. Straightening the track in my mind into a triangle with 3 equal sides, that's 225 feet total. Pure guess. The lap timer at 3:16 has one of the slower racers at 2.214 sec/lap, so let's bump that to 2.25 sec/lap. 2.25 sec to go 225 feet, that's an easy average 100 feet/sec = 68 miles per hour. However, these cars look to be are 1/24 scale, so scale speed is 1635mph. Or Mach 2.14. Average.

Yakuza minigames relies on a different type of car, made from tamiya, called mini4wd. The difference is that the battery is contained in the car and relies on a set of springs and pusher bars at the ends to keep in the lane while a slot car gets the power from the rail and relyies on the slot to keep itself in the lane.

On the subject of slot cars... There's a slot car sim on Steam in Early Access and it looks kinda rad. I already own HTR+ but this new one looks real neat

The video itself is somewhat underwhelming in how it's shot, but Jesus loving Christ, this Texas Mile run: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F94O-Qk8O7U 300mph. In a standing mile. In a road legal car.

Are manual transmissions a deficit for high speed runs with plenty of runway?

I haven't looked into the car spec, but is it a standard H-gate manual, or have they put a sequential cam setup in there? You can run those with paddle shift.
