Top speed running
Hey guys...
There are plenty or road racing courses .... 1/4 ... 1/8 mile tracks....
So ... where can someone go to run flat out.. like an old military airfield??? Un policed piece of road? Just would love to run to the upper end of my Z06 but have no clue were to do it at.. Would be willing to drive a long ways to do it
Any ideas?

An issue might be compliance with the regulations groups establish.
They require equipment and demonstrated ability before approving
runs at the kind of speed a C6 ZO6 can travel.
Are you interested in links to posts by members who have been
close to or over 200?

The Z06's that I've seen run in open mile runs have hit about 180 but would need a lot more room to top out.
Non patrolled road might be good for some short speed bursts but you don't want any issues like deer or road kill when doing above 150 mph.
I too wold be interested in hitting top speed but outside of a test track or the salt flats I don't see any possible/safe place to do it.
Maybe the Autobahn.
I would really love to hit the speed limiter at least once, anyone have any other viable locations?
