    [FONT=&quot]The driving manual says the average driver's reaction time is .75 seconds .... Or 1 car length for every 10 mph......[FONT=&quot]
    Test your average reaction time.

    Be very careful this can be addictive.[/FONT]    [FONT=&quot]Click on the blue link below and good luck.[/FONT]    [FONT=&quot]

        Second go I was a rocketing rabbit and got .1911 and thought I'd quit whilst I was winning. :heehee:

        Obviously my computer is running a bit slow tonight.

        One of those sheep kept making a false start, giving me a 3 second penalty?

        Hedging plants that love shade, preferably that grow fast and maybe even flowering?
