Place to drift

Anyone know a place to practice drifting near San Francisco.

Obviously should be clear/safe.

Sonoma Raceway does drifting on Wednesdays I think. Then there is the skid pad at Thunderhill. Also the drifts at Stockton Fairgrounds run by multiple organizations. Closest ones to the Bay Area I can think of

Infineon does have tire apexes and concrete dividers. I've seen a couple of cars hit those dividers when I went with my friend. My friend almost ate the tire apexes a couple of times too. lol. I was told the set up isn't good for the twins for some reason...they usually end up in the dividers...
