Default OK racers, test your reaction time
OK, you get four tries (be honest)

Took me 4 hours, 7 minutes.

Looking at the sheep put me right to sleep.

When I sent it to Greg Fishman, he said he did a .061.

I think I can trust him, he's my co-drover.

Well...I had a 0.0000 on my first sheep....no penalty...

However, I'll admit that I accidentally hit the mouse button as it is quite sensitive...the rest were in the 0.2xx range...


Subsequent attempts my fastest was 0.126...

0.123 was my best, 0.174 was my average. Probably explains why I'm slow

Me, too! It wasn't on my first, though. It's weird; the sheep actually goes backwards to the left of the screen.

The rest of mine were in the .1XX range or worse.

My average was .260. I guess that's why I'm so slow although I see little correlation between nailing a sheep and driving a racecar. Then again, it may be because I am on a MAC right now.

.063, but it was probably the product of anticipatory sheep shooting. The average was .2242.

You have to think of the sheep as your on-track competitors, and you're picking them off one by one.

My .13 was on a MAC
