Deluxe Version
The Deluxe Version is identical to the network version—having all those great student progress tracking features—except that instead of saving the students' scores to your school server, that data is automatically saved to Barnum Software's Quarter Mile servers.
Key benefits:
- Nothing is on the school server
- Free upgrades
- Students can continue working at home if they install it on their computer(s). They can even conduct school-wide tournaments with students competing from their homes and seeing their school-wide ranking updated race after race!
The Deluxe version is an annual subscription.

Dial-up, minimum. While students never need to go to the web, the computer must have access to the Internet. The Quarter Mile automatically saves the student scores to our secure server. |
