It is 5-6 seconds from the start, and another 6-8 seconds throughout the first section, depending on the car... The flying lap start can also be faster in some cars than others, sometimes cars start out at 50mph, sometimes 80. This was initially why the stop start was popular for manufactures because people timing the cars on the Bridge to Gantry wasn't sure how much a stop start took off from the time.. Individual sources were never close enough to the official time so everyone timing the cars were wrong now, the times are closer to the originals however, the the times still were off...
