Red Racer Factory

The Red Racer Factory is an abandoned Red Racer tricycle factory on the outskirts of southwestern Washington, D.C., northeast of the Nuka-Cola plant and south-southwest of Grayditch in the Capital Wasteland.

Exterior
The factory's door faces east, towards a partially enclosed parking lot. There's a loading dock on the south side of the building where an overturned container of irradiated barrels has spilled into another parking lot below. Raiders occupy the area; expect to see one above and to the east of the upper parking lot and a couple in the lower southern parking lot any time you travel here.

With Operation: Anchorage installed, the entrance to Bailey's Crossroads Metro is a short walk to the southeast.

Factory Floor
This area is a fairly complex maze of assembly lines and catwalks, with a few scattered offices and a large number of toolboxes, workbenches and components for crafted items. The quickest route through is to follow the hall west from the entrance, keep moving west and north until you can go up a stairway, then head through the covered passage southwest directly to the CEO Offices door. More careful exploration will uncover two safes and two well-hidden skill books.

Feral ghouls are found throughout, and high level characters with Broken Steel will encounter a number of powerful reavers. Each time you kill one of the ghouls here, you'll notice an electronic "chirp" exactly like a mine prior to exploding. The head of the dead ghoul will then burst if it has not already been destroyed.

CEO Offices
The offices section is smaller and more straightforward, and is protected by several super mutants (up to masters depending on level) with the same head-bursting effect as the ghouls below. Characters with the ability to hack (Average) computer terminals will be able to find information on this phenomenon, and the terminal closest to the entrance has the option to "Disable Chips," killing any remaining ghouls and super mutants.

The Surgeon, a mad scientist armed with a missile launcher, is responsible for the brain implants in the creatures you've been fighting. This random NPC is hostile, but may be fooled by wearing the Ghoul mask. The Surgeon carries the key to two safes and a cell nearby. The cell holds Stefan, a prized glowing one subject.

Exterior

 * Guns and Bullets - in the eastern alley, on a shelf.
 * U.S. Army: 30 Handy Flamethrower Recipes - in the eastern alley, next to the footlocker near the bed.
 * Grognak the Barbarian - inside the overturned container of irradiated barrels to the south. The body will disappear over time.
 * On top of the overpass to the north of the factory is scavenger's bridge where a scavenger has three skill books (1x Chinese Army: Special Ops Training Manual, 1x Duck and Cover!, and 1x Grognak the Barbarian). They are on a shelf in the scavenger's shop, and cannot be purchased; only stolen. The overpass can be recognized by a wrecked cargo truck underneath and can also be accessed by following the road starting from the Grayditch sewer.
 * Ledoux's Hockey Mask - worn by Goalie Ledoux. See the unmarked quest Just for the Taste of It.

Factory Floor

 * Dean's Electronics - on top of the machinery in the first assembly room north of the main entrance. Jump up onto the barrels to the west of the machine to get on top and find the book.
 * D.C. Journal of Internal Medicine - under a bucket on top of a large machine on the eastern side. Drop down from a catwalk into a small section between two generators.

CEO Offices

 * Nikola Tesla and You - on a shelf behind an (Average) locked door.
 * The Surgeon's Lab Coat - worn by The Surgeon.
 * Nuka-Cola Quantum - inside Stefan's cage.
