Nah... just for having too much fun. Some random security guard said he spent 15 minutes looking around the area for us, cause he could hear all the tire screeching and exhaust noise, but in the end he just didn't want us there.
We had like 10 to 12 cars going and he waltz in and watches for a bit then kicked us out. Said he doesn't want to call the cops on us, but he didn't want to put his job in jeopardy.

Even if you rent space. You can still be ticketed for reckless driving if its your personal driveway, private owned parking lot, whatever. It'd have to be an organized event with the proper paper work, permits, and required insurance and safety precautions. You're better off going in on private track time at Sebring which is tough to schedule and expensive to reserve.

My suggestion, do some research, find the people you need to talk to, get the permits and paperwork to make it an organized event, and what youll probably have to do is pay for private on site medics. If you go this route, hit me up and il go in on it with you and your friends

Then again you can always take the hoonigan route and find and empty parking lot and ask for forgiveness not permission. But id advise against that and say you should definitely not do that.

What kind of fucked up laws does florida have?

Not that i specifically condone this, but about 10 or so years back in college a friend went out to an empty part of his apartment complex parking lot drunk in a snowstorm and did donuts, stupidly he did them till police came by.

He was arrested for dui, etc.

And beat it because the complex was private property.

Isn't every state like that?

I know in New York if you get caught reckless driving in a private property you may be able to dismiss the ticket if the owner of the private property says it's okay to do so.
