Default NoVA parking lot for figure-8s

Can anybody provide me with any suggestions for safe, secluded, and open parking lots in NoVA to do figure-8s in? I'd like to avoid any police and spectators, perhaps behind an office building late in the evening somewhere. Why you may ask? I need 30 minutes to break in my ATS carbon LSD. I currently live up near Sterling, so anything out in northern Fairfax County and/or eastern Loudoun is preferred. Thanks in advance.

Hey John,
Out here in Ashburn by my office, there is a new shopping center going up. The parking lot is in I think, but the stores aren't open, so it will be deserted. I'll swing by it on the way home and scope it out for you.

Off Hunter Mill Road in "Lake Fairfax Office Park". It's huge...sort of near Sunrise Valley and the Toll Rd.

It's super-secluded, although I don't know about them rent a cops.

Is that the normal break in procedure or are you doing this because you're going to the track?

Well, both... more emphasis on the first as opposed to the second... since my Z is a track car, I need to have it broken in correctly.
