I read somewhere that women on average have faster reaction time than men. Plus less weight.

This was used to explain Shirley Muldowney's dominance in drag racing - which is all reaction.

Also, I've heard because of their reaction time, women make better fighter pilots than men, though there are obviously other physical constraints like g forces, strength, etc., to consider.
