Default Probably a dumb question

I pretty much already know the answer to this, but you never know for sure until you try. I don't have a track near by, and with my work schedule, it is almost impossible to get the time off to go to one. I am just wondering if there is anyone other way for me to get into the 12 second club. If not, it's really no biggy. The closest track is an 1/8 mile and it is closed until spring. Just wondering. Thanks for your time.

Yeah man it's really no biggy, I know what my car is capable of. I guess it really doesn't matter, just wish I could actually get to a track.

Sorry, but no. You have to run the number.
