Default Where Can I go to do Sick Skids?!?

As the Title, HOWEVER, I would like to know where I can do a skid pan day where I can flick the DCCD back and have a bit of a play without getting a warning or kicked off. The ACT guys had one where the track was wet and they got to do some cool slides.

Anyone know of where this can happen?

I'd love to get access to a big tarmac/concrete skidpad just to let loose and practice.

On subject, is the old Caversham racetrack still in existence, & if so, available for use?

It was a long time ago, but when I was doing my police pursuit driver training back in '92 we had several days of short course rally/drift/cutting sick at Stirling Moss's old haunt.

Sorry, been out of the Perth metro loop a long time & wouldn't have a clue what was happening at Caversham now

they're building a new sea of houses there, most of the previous driving area is now filled with rooms for the construction guys or something

40kms of twisty gravel tracks next door to where I live in mount Helena.
Plenty of Tarmac spots in the hills but none of it's legal.
Perth needs another skid pan!
Oh I think there is an historic raceway between lord st and west swan rd. Not sure what it's used for now, but it's still in use in one form or another.
