no, I am doing it on the highway, no way to exactly duplicate the reverse course. my area is quite hilly, so finding a flat area is not simple. stupid ordinances got rid of all the race tracks but nascar ... so that's out. I suppose I could use an airport runway to get more accurate results. but are you others out there being overly precise in your calculations? I have had as high as 12.2 seconds to as low as 9.55 seconds depending on how I vary my foot positon for shifting.
