A Dragy can be setup to basically give you a timeslip. It'll give 60ft, 330ft, 1/8mi ET and mph as well as 1/4mi. We've checked one at the track with a car in the deep 5's and it was pretty accurate. It can also give you 0-60 and other mph ranges if you want. Pretty cool IMHO.
They also record elevation change over the run and a G meter.
'63 Dodge 330
11.19 @ 121 mph
Pump gas, n/a, through the mufflers on street tires with 3.54's. 3,600 lbs.
10.01 @ 133mph with a 250 shot of nitrous an a splash of race gas. 1.36 60 ft. 3,700 lbs.

Its NOT a data recorded past what has been stated from you last run. And they are quite accurate pretty cool little device.

Oh, and I think the only way to get the data is to pair it with your "Smart" phone. That can be a challenge for us older folk...!  Smart Phone, VAS is dat AKA aside I may have to step up to one of those, DANG IT

Here's a slip from my Mercedes. You can see the data displayed. The screen scot shows you what it will record. 0-30scrolled off the top of the page.

, their website doesn't say squat about what it does.
