Here are my times.. That's a pretty cool test, I did it a second time and it was much better the second time around. They hit the brakes faster the second time around..
Thanks Tammy

That's still pretty quick, Lownuff - esp after working all night! If I did that, my times would be much slower.

Lownuff - be sure to post your drunken times. That should be interesting.
