I've tried this also with a high speed camera and 1 foot indicators in the background. I like your wheelbase method better for eliminating the skewed camera angles of the distance from the vehicle to background measuring device. I was a little scared of hitting my camera on the ground. I never did analyzed that video or run the formula to figure the speed. Myth Busters use this method all the time.
