I have to get in mine to drive it to the staging lanes. After I set the tire pressures and see the first pair crank up to go into the water box, I get back in my car and strap in. How long I'm there before getting into the water box depends on a few things. How many pairs are in front of me. How many of those guys in front of me are the kind that takes forever between the burnout and getting staged.
Then I get to run and have to drive back to the pits.
At that time I could have spent 5-10 minutes in the car.
