Yeah theres a long dual track by me everyone parks roughly 1/4 down where there is a turning for a waste site, common question around here is "How can fast you do to the Tip?"

Nope not even anything close to it.
Edit:actually on 2nd thought, we have "the prom" in Kirkcaldy. Usually see a few idiots racing up and down there.

Yeah as Wilson said,Kirkcaldy prom.Its calmed down alot but it has been named as the worst in Britain for street racing a while back.
Dont get me wrong ive done it myself in the younger days,seen over 100mph,but wouldnt chance it now.There was a big crackdown with the traffic cops etc.
It is stupid and irresponsible,but at the time its the adrenaline rush u get and u dont think of the consequences.
However a38 looks immense,where is it about??
Ive seen a few vids on youtube from the "ring road in Bristol and that looks good.All of a sudden they came to this big massive roundabout and it was just packed with ricers coming from every junction.

Seriously though, Essex on a Saturday night is one big proving ground. Southend sea front but you can't really sped round there, Basildon trading estate, and lakeside flyover!

I used to a watch a fair bit of this. Gets dangerous when it's busy. Done properly it's as safe as a drive to the shops, but that's not always how it goes. I've seen accidents and very nearly serious injuries.
