Here is my code for my Timer.

onClipEvent (load) {  
start = getTimer();  
startCount = 60;  
}  
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
current = (getTimer()-start)/300;  
if (current\<startCount) {  
elapsed = startCount-current;  
bCounter = Math.floor(elapsed);  
} else {  
\_root.speed += 10;  
\_root.score += 10;  
}  
}

It’s a typical timer now see the last two picces of code that makes my speed and score go up but i dont want it to go up and keep going i just want to add 10 to both i figured in order to stop it i need it to reset.

So anyone know how i can make a rest function i never used it before jus heard of it.
