Fantasy Tiger Run has plenty of company in a long tradition of players chasing timing, patterns and better decisions. A top Formula 1 tyre stop can happen in under two seconds; McLaren set a 1.80-second pit-stop record.

It is a good reminder that simple game mechanics can carry a surprising amount of history.
