The Speed Racer Achievement is available only when the geohash falls on a drivable road. The achievement can be claimed when you drive a vehicle through the geohash on the correct day. Satisfactory proof will probably consist of a photo of yourself near the location, preferably with your vehicle. Note that taking pictures while driving is dangerous and not recommended, so it helps to bring a friend.

- Yvh11a ran over a q-tip while achieving this award
- Jevanyn was on his way to a birthday party, so he couldn't stop for the geohash on 2008-12-06.

- Dtobias doesn't suppose the blurry and poorly-lit pictures here are sufficient proof.
