10 hits ... .172 fast to .218 slow ..average .203

I find I'm quicker reacting to orange and red and slow on green and blue.

Here's another reaction time site that is a little more entertaining...

I think I would be quicler if I knew what color it was changing to as well. It takes a few thousandths to process the color in addition to the fact that it changed.

.187 best on that, too.... guess that's all I've got!

Sorry Vic.... it's an old program. Still works great on my old Windows 95 machine, but I can't get it to work on my Vista machine. Tinkered with it on XP a couple of times, but I'm not as sure of the timing system on it. My old partner, Mark Towslee did the programming for it. I just did the sound and graphics for it. I may have to pester him about it sometime.

OK I gave it a try .188, .219, .203, then 6.583 what the?
I let go because I got tired of waiting. Found out it was because I couldn't see the color change. The change from one color to the other didn't register in my brain! I may have some color blindness.
I had better reactions when there was more contrast between the colors.
I wonder if our reaction times would differ if NHRA used a different color for each bulb?

Tried a shim (business card) under the button. Improved to .172

Somebody would figure out what shade of sunglasses work best with any particular color!
