Maybe a guy needs to keep one of those measuring devices with the wheel that one roles to measure distances in the trunk of the car for when the need arises. I can just picture this scenario at the street races trying to set this up.

I was wondering the same thing. How do you measure 25 car lengths? Get 25 people to line up end to end?
