What would be the world 100m running record if Usain Bolt could start running any distance, like 120m or 150m, and record his fastest 100m? I'm talking about adding the bonus of reducing the time of acceleration minus the time that he will lose, because he got tired of running additional xx meteres beforehand. What distance would be the best choice? And of course we are talking about Usain Bolt in his prime.

According to Google, Bolts top speed is 12.5 m/s, multiple that times your desired distance and blamo
probably slower than the real GOAT michael johnson's 50m to 150m when he broke the world 200m record. 8.76 seconds.

check his 200 wr splits

Thats not how it works
His top speed is 44,64 km/h and he reaches it after running 60m so the optimal distance would be to run 160m total and record the speed from the final 100m.
Assuming he can sustain that top speed for 100m it'd make him cover that distance in 8,065 seconds

30-130?
8.4 ish

I checked because I thought I might be wrong. indeed johnson's last 100m and 50-150 were both faster than bolt's WR.

He said to take away from acceleration and fatigue in the OP.

hold the fuck up! not as fast as asafa powell's 100m relay spilt time - 8.70.
enjoy your fastidiously researched answer OP.

This guy is right, at least if I'm understanding OPs question correctly

The second 100m in the 200m is always faster even though they are slowing down.
