OK, hopefully I'll get some spare time at home to have a closer look ;-)

Yes, it's a bit different than the Gran Turismo 6 challenge I played 
recently, after I thought I had done quite well I was ranked something 
like 60000th with 100 people either side of me having exactly the same 
time to 0.001 of a second! Then my PS3 decided to die :-(

Also reminds me of a web-based competition a long time ago which was 
some sports game (the type where you had to press left/right arrow as 
fast as possible), with prizes of TVs and music systems. I was very 
surprised nobody else had thought of writing a small bit of code to win...
