Peter Van Muyden has a bunch of those on his website. Interactive and all that. http://jpvm.org Or shoot me an email and I'll send what I have to you.
Best,

These are what we use.
Do the race management links above work for you, or were you looking for something more along the lines of what I'm suggesting?
I just sent you a PM with a speed and distance table for fulls and radials. Each knot is 1.688888 ft/sec, and the speeds are taken from the Speeds worksheet in the files that Roberto, Mark and Peter linked (they're all close enough to each other for government work).
Bob, one data point is that in ~10 knots, a Laser will sail from ~8 kph to ~16 kph downwind, depending on whether it's surfing or not.
(We know this from a video by Brett Bayer, a 14x Laser Masters World Champ, who shared a training video with us. It's behind a subscription paywall, so I cannot share it here.)
Given that there are 1.852 kilometers in a nautical mile, each kph is 0.9 foot/second.
So, a Laser non-surfing in ~10 knots will do ~7 feet/second (= 8 kph * 0.9 foot/second/kph, or half a boatlength per second). A Laser surfing in ~10 knots will do twice that: ~14 feet/second -- that's one boatlength per second, which means a 3 BL zone will be traversed in 3 seconds.
Bigger picture, if there are time/distance questions in a protest involving Lasers, it's worth asking about wave state and if/when someone was surfing (or upwind, pounding), since either of those will impact boatspeed and the time/distance situation.
but doubt their usefulness in the protest room regarding boat-for-boat interactions,
other than their psyche-out/bullying bluffery.
