Wagz i think going down the hill on 460 would be a great shoot, have a person in the island and one on the side, that way you kinda get an eagle view and a side view as you fly by
and there are hardly and cops there
its near 81, do it early in the morning, that way, crisp air, no cops and no traffic
i am talking about 8am or 7am
that way you can see your car clearly and not light reflections!!

but of course...this is only a "imaginary situation" cause cops do read these boards....


no one on DragVA would ever knowingly plan a high speed event...period.

lol dude, i never exceed the speed limit nor do i endorse racing on anything but a closed course, which is of course what we're looking for. "460" is code word for "closed course"

know where ur talking about and thats actually a favorite hangout for cops - they are there at least 3 times weekly if not more - i live at the roanoke road exit and see them there all the time, but do like the idea of some cool shots coming down a hill - 460 is full of them going the other direction too.

its really all up to you

I've posted the video. I don't know why it appears that the color is so off. I was using the crappy microsoft video editor and they all seem to be doing this. I'll have to play around with it more and I'll try to compress and upload another tomorrow using Divx. The quality is fine, the colors just look all green and wacky. (This may just be my computer, since I vaguely remember this happening before, but I don't think it is)

So, what speeds did we reach on these closed courses? Nice runs by the nissans.
