Sounds like me looking at the trip odometer.
I went out first, with it at 0. I figured I'd use it as a gauge for how long I'd been out there. Drove for a while, looked down, saw 12. I though I'd been out there longer than that, but convinced myself 12 was possible.
Drove some more, looked down, saw 15. Gotta keep racking up laps. I'll go until it says 20. This proves that my mind wasn't thinking things through.
Drove some more, looked down, saw 17. Too worn out to get to 20, so I pulled in.
Turns out I was out there for ~150 laps or ~120 miles.
The front straight didn't seem that fast to me...
