Hello, does anyone know of a good place for speed runs in the Northern Virginia Area? In a perfect world looking for something flat, over 1000ft long, and with no traffic would be nice. I just started going up to RFK and there seems to be a couple spots there but not very flat and quite a bit of gravel. Thank you.

I had been to an abandoned WWII era airport. The surface was terrible. Speed runs really need a well maintained surface.
I have spent years searching google maps for good roads. Then you have to go scout them in person.
Google maps can tell you from the street view if there are key necessities:
  • Free from obstructions on the side of the road and curbs
  • Smooth surface (needs to be verified in person)
  • Flat surface
  • Free from road reflectors
  • No homes/children likely to get in the street.
Finding suitable roads is the biggest challenge in this hobby!!!!
