Surprisingly, there's no media consensus about that. In a series on the Ten Hardest Things To Do in Sports, USA Today writes that downhillers reach top speeds of up to 80 miles per hour. The Columbus Dispatch says the race at the Olympics will be decided at speeds in excess of 80 miles per hour.
DEFINITION of 'Primary Account Number (PAN)'. The 14, 15 or 16 digit number that appears on the primary account holderâs credit card. Often, the primary account number is also simply called the account number.
Account numbers are generally presented in the format PPPPPP-BBBBBBB-SSS where P equals prefix, B equals body and S equals suffix. Where a bank displays the suffix as two digits, a leading zero is added to create the full 16 digit account number (for example, PPPPPP-BBBBBBB-SS would become PPPPPP-BBBBBBB-0SS). This format allows customers to open multiple accounts using a common account number where only the suffix changes.
