Try Carlos Barbosa's free TThreadedTimer components, it's great, I have been using it for a while. It's freeware, runs in a separate thread and has a higher resolution than the standard timer component according to the author.

Or phrased another way can I think of two timers as if running in separate
threads, or in the same thread, so that one finishes before the other can
get a chance to run.

The reason I am wondering is if there are any issues to be careful of in
modifying variables shared between the two timers.
