What approximate speeds equate to what sheave stroke?

I know that's worded a little funky, but I'm been poring over the weights and that seems to have revealed a little more mystery behind the black art of clutching. The ramp up curves of course have a sheave travel associated with them. When I'm making what I feel in my own mind is an educated decision on a different, more aggressive weight, I want the quickest shifting one my sled can hold. They plot force vs distance, is there any way I can approximate what the 10mm and 20mm sheave travel points are in mph? Around 70-80 Yamaha mph is where I'd have to back off on my shift speeds as the little redhead seems to lost a bit of spunk up there. I'm ASSuming I could take the most aggressive ramp in existence up to 10mm, but that's just an unsubstantiated conclusion I've drawn from a few hours of today's searches. Would it be accurate to say the holeshot comes primarily from the weight itself, and that the midrange and top end are largely compensated for through swapping rivets? If so, my stock weights gotta go but that's just from looking at the charts. Real world might not be that much difference.
