Should I drive my car to the track?

Another thing to think about: why do you want to go to the track?

If its just to get some times why not get a vector or if you have a smart phone you can down load an app. These devices will give you everything that is on a drag strip time slip. Just find a long stretch of level hiway that is lightly traveled, early Sunday morning usually works. Stop in the break down lane and launch from there.

The accelerometers in devices these days are extremely accurate as are the clock features. That's all you need to know time speed and distance. They are also extremely accurate, at least within .01 seconds.
