Anyone in North Carolina

[White Rabbit]

Does anyone live in or near North Carolina that knows of a legal drifting area, I have been searching for weeks and don't feel comfortable in parking lots,(since I have no idea what the laws are here). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What part of northcarolina?

it's huge!

In a small hick town called Angier, but its kind of close to Raleigh (45 minutes). I'm mainly looking for a place to practice, some where I can go even if there is no event, and without having to drive out of state. I've called a few tracks with road courses and everyone says that their tracks are not set up for drifting.

How close would that be to Piedmont Dragway?

How often do they hold events their or is it open to the public?

[soultron]

Only one so far, but looks as if they'll be more.

That telephone pole down at the far end looked really close? Not to mention the chainlinked fence up at the near end.... Large areas of pavement are hard to find "round these parts"...

Yeah they just made a track next to Piedmont dragway its hosted by a local drift team named " Drift Brothers" I was there it was wet and like 38 degrees but we all had a great time...But other tracks are Virginia Raceway and Summit Point they are the closest

There's drifting at Myrtle beach Speedway in Conway SC sometimes also... but yes, it's far from you guys out west.
