    thast the one. they sometimes have advanced driving courses on there, the only problem is its a bit rough so its gonna kill your tyres

    I've been thinking about it but my drivings scary enough as it is. there is also the large car park at hillaries neer the boat ramp. thats sweet when its a little wet. but once again there are usually cops neerby.

    yea ive seen that carpark it looks awesome but ive heard there are cops there frequently like u said, and aparrently they have security cameras on the buildings caus people go there heaps. makes it even harder to find somewhere to drift it up:(

    Find a nice flat paddock and go nuts! Wont wreak your tires and you get more sideways :p Only downside is cleaning your car afterwards!

    Why don't you go to AHG driving centre near the airport. If you get a goup together they will arrange soemthing for you. Of course its not about burnouts but learning to control your car.....

    Also go down to whoopass Wednesday at Quitmotorplex and enter your car in the burnout comp.........
