Make sure you do it. It is an unbelievable experience and one of the least commercial operations I've ever attended. It is just a bunch of car guys going fast on the salt. Just take your sun glasses.

Can you take your own car, or are there any special events that let you use theirs? Maybe the speed demon.

They have classes for stock vehicles. You have to be registered, pass tech etc. I suspect you can find all you need to know on website for The Southern California Timing Association.
