Good places on the peninsula to test car's limits?
is there any place in or within 20mi of San bruno where one can test his car in a safe envirnoment (ie not on a public road, or a very quiet, wide road)? i'm talkin good big empty parking lots and such. testing grip and suspension limits, not top speed or anything.

Calaveras in Milpitas. Watch out for blind turns. I would have a buddy of yours on another end with a walkie, to tell you when cars are coming. Very, very dangerous if you are inexperienced. I almost slid off the cliff many times in my life pushing my car to the limits.
Pagemill road is another good "canyon" style road.
