There are some "keystroke-combinations" you have to press if you want to be the fastest in a loop/corner/etc.

I'm agree with Zak. Even if a man could be very fast to press a key of a piano when he sees a red square becoming green, it's not automatic he knows to play a fast melody with 5 fingers...
A good reaction time it's sure useful in Stunts, above all to correct the path in a large curve, especially in a NORH race. But it's not the main quality for a Stunts driver. Coordination is more important, I think. Always after the passion and the taste of the challenge, sure...

I had another nice try yesterday:

1)137
2)135
3)135
4)134
5)142

Average: 136,6

What I like about the series is that they are all close together and not like 100,180,160,180,100...


Akoss Poo a.k.a. Zorromeister

New records (I played relatively much yesterday):

1 click 143.0
5 clicks (practised a lot) 166.2
10 clicks 175.8

5 click record consisted of the following result:
1 170
2 168
3 161
4 164
5 168

I did 127 in 5 tries few days ago. Around 128 in 10 tries...

I think the reaction time is the result which each of us got in his few first tries. After some training it's more of a reflex than a reaction time. Or maybe a combination...

Another test made today after watching this topic :
180.6 in 5 tries : 188, 196, 166, 182, 171 (I'm not as regular in reaction times than Akoss or Argammon obviously)

Argammon

Very nice for someone around your age  ;D...

Litlle padawan, I hope next time you'll show more respect for the elders of this community.

Anyway, I just tried for the fun to do the test with my left hand (I'm right-handed). Shitty result of 234 for 10 tries (results from 190 to 300 !!!). I didn't log in to publish such an shitty score.
Come on, try with your 2nd hand to see if your reaction times are slower compared to your 1st one.

Argammon

I tried with my left hand and got results between 125ms and 139ms as 5try averages.
So it looks like my left hand might even be a tad faster than my right hand! Did not log in though!

Btw, it is sad such a test attracts many cheaters. Look at "Sadistik" for example. All results between 99ms and 101ms. He is clearly a cheater. Probably used some script.

Not sure if the guy below him cheated. I think it is possible for like 1 out of 100.000 people. So who knows? The chance is high he cheated though :)

Well that's the internet.

Ok "Gunzlinger" cheated also.

He had several results above 200ms on the same day he scored 118ms in average.

Cheat method: A way more primitive method than the other guy. I think it is better not to publish it  ;)

Can just shake our heads about some people...

I did 194 with my left hand in my very first try. Also looks like left hand is faster than right hand, but maybe I'm more focused than other times... Let's see.
Yes, it is me. No, I'm not back at racing (for now...)

Chulk

Around 187 with my right hand, definitely I am more focused today. Although regarding my first try with my right hand was over 200, left hand should be faster with some training.
Yes, it is me. No, I'm not back at racing (for now...)

Argammon

Apparantly there was a big cleanup on the side and many cheaters are gone. At least some justice  8).

Another kind of reaction test : http://members.iinet.net.au/~pontipak/redsquare.html

Movements are always the same, so it's easy to progress and improve. Then, movement speed increase and it becomes hard.
Goal of 18 seconds is not so hard to reach though, I did more than 20 seconds at my job right now, after a few minutes playing only.
