I am having problems with the 3rd challange in stage 8. It says that I need to "stay no closer than 55 yd in the first lap and then win spectacularly on the final lap."

Each time I try, it says I failed on the 1st lap, even when I give "M" a huge cushion. Am I supposed to stay 55 yds behind EVERYBODY??? Or am I mis-interpereting something???
