<VV> TSD?

[Arjay Morgan]

And you shouldn't even think of running a TSD rally without a Curta 
calculator a/k/a a "peppermill." We used them all the time to run 
TSD rallies through the Pocono Mountains with the Northeastern Region
of the SCCA. Today, however, there are two Curtas listed on eBay..
One with a bid at $743, the other with at buy it now of $995. That's 
asking a lot for a mechanical, analog calculator. Methinks someone
has written a Curta-like program that'll run on a laptop.

Time, speed, distance.

You receive a set of instructions. The time you leave is noted. First, 
there is an odometer check used by you to calibrate your odometer. 
Then, they tell you to proceed at a certain average speed. They give 
you additional instructions and tell you when to change your average 
speed. At checkpoints you are "clocked in". At the finish the amount of
 
time you are off from the theoretical time counts against you, low 
score wins.
