Default Test your reaction time

Now, Cobra owners/drivers should be good at this.....

Default It's addictive...

I got faked out on my first try and busted. Second try .2394 Then .2268, .2112 and a best of .139 I'll try again after I get out and about to see if that makes a difference.

Buzz,

You darn drag racers make the rest of us look really bad. I never did have a good reaction time with any thing.

Sheep 1 - 3.0 seconds (aparently you dont try to click on the sheep)
Sheep 2 - 0.222
Sheep 3 - 0.330
Sheep 4 - 0.000
Sheep 5 - 0.222

Just wait 'til the NewZealanders see this - then you'll really see some low time :P

I wonder if this sort of 'test' translates into an actual ability to react while driving.

It seems like the NASCAR types would really need to end up in the Turbo category.

Not sure how it relates to driving, but I did try a telling little experiment. I had just got in from doing some running around so I was wide awake and feeling fine. 3 turns at the sheep with the following times: .158 , .1738 and .1676.

I drank 1 beer (Heineken), waited 5 minutes and took another 3 turns. Best time: .1852 all the others were just above .2

Quaffed another beer, waited a while and tried again. Couldn't do better than .2205 in five tries! Two were in the high .22's , one was .239 and one was .245. And I was trying!

I weigh 187 pounds, not much fat and I have a pretty high metabolism. Anyone who says a couple of beers has no effect on your motor skills is not dealing with reality.

I seem to run the .180 to .120 pretty consistently.
