Great practice tree
Setup... then setup again.
Other than that, though, this app is a good way for an ol’ bracket racer to practice RTs. Also, keep in mind I’m writing this while gritting my teeth in frustration right after I had to reset everything for the 4th or 5th time.

Hi JonSP3030, Just before a race, you can set things up how you want for the upcoming race, but they will reset to default. To change the defaults (like sound, day/night, etc) so the settings are "permanent", click the Gear icon in the top right corner. There are many settings to choose from that will remain after each race...you then of course could change them for one specific race as you've discovered. Sorry for any confusion.
Not happy
Response from developer
This is not a common complaint Gambler013. Only 1 person has ever complained of this and I never received any details regarding the specifics of the issue. There sometimes is confusion because there is a setting that allows for 0.000 based results (perfect reaction) vs 0.500/0.400 based results (old school perfect reaction). In addition, since the app runs on devices that max out at about 60 frames per second, there is some fractional amount of delay between the screen being asked to update and actually showing the update...which could cause some inconsistency issues on much slower devices. If you could provide some more details, it would be helpful to narrow down possible problems. What type of phone/tablet are you using? What type of racing are you using? (ie. using gas pedal, transbrake, delay box, etc) Are you running pro street or sportsman? Can you give a more detailed scenario of your reaction times from one race to the next (using the same settings each time)?

Incredibly inconsistent

Sorry for the late response Jason! And I apologize for any frustration you may find with Starting Line. I haven't had any reports of it being inconsistent in the way you describe.
