Christmas Tree Simulator V1.4 free download
I have put together a Christmas Tree Simulator to allow practice and honing of reaction times.
I have no practical experience with drag racing, so I'm working from descriptions I found on the Interwebs, so any and all comments are welcome,
especially from those who actually race!
The URL for free download is:

Enjoy,

Thanks Adam,
I thought about doing an on-line version, but there is no way you can achieve accurate timing across the internet, you just end up measuring the
quality of the internet connection. Since the heart of the matter *is* timing, an on-lline version would be more of a toy than a tool.
Let me know which parts of the user interface need improvement - version 1.1 wants to be written!

If anyone has suitable images (i.e. view down the strip, clearly showing the tree) or sound files (there are three - prestage, staged and launched), I
would be happy to incorporate them in custom versions of the toy.
