Nope. twenty plus minutes. Too many checked mistakes. Gave up.

To buck the trend slightly, the reason I like this series is not that you can speed run them.
The reason they work for me is that they are generally straightforward - up to a point - and then need a little thinking to finish, and it's the bite size problem in the middle I find the best part.
(it's not usually a lot - little killer one excepted :) - but enough so it's not just a write in.
I'd be worried that if the focus shifts to solving at speed that the nice speed bumps will be lost.
