    I can't get you a standing mile, but if you come up I know a place where you could do a standing kilometer :)

    Does it happen to me the property of a car maker? Some 2.3 guys on that side of the border did some "street racing", sort of like flashlight drags, and got access to 2.4 kilometers of flat, straight road to do their thing ... it was owned by an automaker.

    Not sure where you really are up there to compare.

    No its not. :( Its just a road out in the country that can get closed due to low usage bordering 2 farms that happens to be long enough to have 1km of a straight plus enough room to shut down.

    EDIT - sent PM
