That's pretty interesting, I read a thing about the reaction time of racing drivers and Michael Schumacher was actually quite slow, his brain however processed much more information in that time than yer average Joe.

there was a thing on telly about the  raceing car drivers   useing there subconsciousness part of the brain   kinda like    learning tapes etc etc   they  hypnotized these guys and talked them around the race track   gears brakes etc etc etc    first time on the track  they were not far off lap records  some times even faster   ..
bit like the training thing  1 find target 2 fire   said  out aloud  so ya  aim on target on "1"  and  fire on "2"   ment to take the mind off  things like recoil etc etc   any how   spoken  1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2 etc etc ya can only  go so fast   but in ya mind the speed in way faster    try it  say 1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2  aloud  then   think it to ya self     brain beats the mouth  all the time  (well  almost    there  are the  mouth in gear  brain in park  kinda times  :blackeye:)

how do ya get the target to draw  frist ???????????

catch ya

The start beep is your surprize to trigger things off.
Subconscious mind is a zillon times faster than "thinking" each step - that's my we have reflexes!
I've done this a thousand time before and no-one's been hurt........much

yea it is the reaction time   intresting  seeing people starting to move  when they "hear"  the beep  or  "heard" the beep  ..

like the turning targets   alot of people  wait untill the face of the target is fully showen before they start to move   depending on  time settings  the target is long gone  before   people  react   even tho   if asked they  can recall seeing  the target  move  way before  they  started to react ..

that was one thing i liked about the speed steel   it  was  a lot faster    and it did show up some  weak areas  i have     intresting a lot of people that  deal  with speed  or even  game on PC's  or time zone etc etc   have faster  hand eye
