    I'm not sure if they even hold church there, it may only be for weddings and such, they do hold car shows but it is a stretch.

    Heres what I found on google earth.
    The church I was talking about


    Local Airport


    An old Creamery


    Don't really know what this is but I can stop by


    Huge old chevy dealer


    Yellow freight


    A now abandoned Ford Dealer


    I'll get in contact with the owners see if anyone is willing to rent out

    Why does the owner have to insure? Couldn't you have waivers signed releasing their responsibility?

    No one wants to insure drifting. When I ran events, costs were huge. The amount I had to charge drifters turned them away (they are all cheap bastards). ODS is possible but the problem is that any event not backed by a huge company will cost $200-$300 per driver for a parking lot.

    Just go to E-town and Summit Point and be happy.

    Think I should call regular airports a call or is this a closed airfield style thing? I'm gunna go on google earth and look for big lots, try and get a hold of the owners.

    Really can't plan much without a location, I'll deff keep an eye out for more. Bear mountain has a huge lot but it's not exactly pristine. Theres also a church that hosts car shows around here that we hit up when it snows. I wipped up a quick mspaint diagram, the squigle lines show increased elevation. Granted it's not the best for highspeeds, but has alot of transitions and I think it's really the only one around here that will be willing to rent out. I'll also give a call to the local airports, see if there is any way we can get in there.

    I'm down, im sure some friends would be as well, to rent a lot to drift. I asked the manager of a "park and ride" around here, the guy looked at me like I was retarded. I used the term "motorsport event" I guess he couldn't figure out why we wanted his half an acre lot.

    You need overnight parts from Japan to drift.
