Make the on trigger of one of them be the other reaching the destination.
This is pretty much half baked from my end. Sorry.

▼Yeah, that's where my brain was going with that.

First option(for two pistons): Set the starting piston to your speed, then take the next-in-line piston to have disabled movement and start trigger to start when first piston reaches target distance.It will look like this.

Second option(for more than two): Set all 'pistons' to disabled movement, and start trigger to frames elapsed. Set first piston delay to 0 , then each subsequent piston to one extra frame.It will look like this

Sorry for the skippy clips, I can't get it to work right.

No problem. Just PM me if you have trouble or need to ask anything else. I just happened to experiment with something similar a while back, so it was a piece of cake.
