Formula Batak Training

Being able to maintain 100% concentration and precision throughout the race while under these physical stresses is incredibly tough, and a lapse in concentration for a split second can have disastrous results. An obvious major requirement of drivers is competent motor skills – a blanket term for speed, agility, reaction time, coordination, power and balance. In particular, reaction time is crucial, with high speed and precision levels being essential components.

This machine has been designed to improve reaction, hand–eye coordination and stamina by enabling sportsmen and women to train under simulated "sports-like" conditions. It works by switching on a random series of lights that must be pressed as quickly as possible. It is used regularly by many top drivers to keep their reactions sharp.
