Hola, al analizar los resultados de una operación aparece:
So you are getting up there, so these days, you can get about maybe a 75% chance of hitting your target, it is not the 90% chance that you would like to be getting, but it’s getting up there, the results are not bad like they used to be, they are tolerably good is how I put it.
¿Alguna sugerencia para "getting up there? Gracias.

I'd use this because the idea is getting ahead, putting daylight between you and your rivals; often used in a sporting context, it could fit here as well;
