those are all the best place to practice and learn from some amazing drivers.
Adams is a pretty horrible track, as it's a go-kart track. Very slow, very tight, with 6" drops off the asphalt at spots. Dangerous for new drivers in nice cars.

Willow Springs (WSIR) is ideal, as is El Toro because there's great run-off room and a variety of setups.

YES! Can't reiterate this enough. You make yourself and the drift community look bad when you get caught on the streets, not to mention you will smash a curb or light post and wreck your (presumably decent) ride.

i would say keep it off the streets but i think it is safe if your in parking lot areas or around industrial buildings that are abandoned

and if a cop rolls up while your drifting in a parking lot he will give you a ticket for reckless driving.

Nope, I have a white LSx FD. Sadly it's sitting in my garage since I've got a broken right foot :/

I'll shoot up there in a month or so when I get this cast off and hang out.

You guys in Cali are pretty damn lucky to have so many tracks, over here in Texas there's very few n the drift track is like 2 hours away 97 miles, n only on Sundays mineral wells $50 all day if your driving or $5 if you wanna watch or take a ride with the drifters really fun but like I said far..
