The longest rally in a tournament was one in which the ball passed over the net 643 times and the point lasted for 29 minutes. The competitors were Jean Hepner and Vicky Nelson at Richmond, Virginia USA in October 1984. Nelson went on to win the match 6–4, 7–6 (13–11), which also holds the record for the longest match, taking 6 hours, 31 minutes. (source)

This means that, if you could drive your car straight up, you would arrive in space in an hour, more or less. (obeying all speed limits, of course and maybe stopping to stretch your legs)
You'd probably need a car much like this one:
