so it would be
1: 50 cones @ 1.60 clean on flat
2: 50 cones @ 1.60 clean with pitch? Or should it be 50 cones "anyway you like it" just like it is with the 100?

I have made lots of changes under the hood, so thats why this is 4.0 instead of 3.6. I have not had the time to test it with a trackmate but I hope it works just fine. http://www.ett...

On another note, I'm not sure how the timer works in mode1 but in mode0 the time does not start running until the fourth beep, so starting one second earlier gives that you get a one second shorter time in the course than what you really had. So you really need to "add it back" using false start mul...
