I'm going to be hosting a 1:24 event with a local 1:1 car club. Scale 1/4 mile for these cars should be about 200 feet, but how would you accurately time a 1/4 mile run to maybe 1/10 or 1/100 of a second? Has anyone come up with a track timer for straightline courses?

I like twisties just as much as the next guy, but we're bound to en up running in a straight line to see who's got the fastest 1:24. Also, is there a good way to test top speed (real MPH or scale is fine, as it will be relative)
