Let's rent a skid pad at Thunderhill

Hi everybody. I want to try go sideways on stock fr-s. What do you think about renting a skid pad together on Thunerhill (it's something like $600 for a day up to 4 cars).

I'd probably try it, would anyone be willing to lend me some stock wheels/tires for the event? lol I'm on 255 MPSS and don't think I would want to be drifting on those

Yes. Because that's what a skid pad is for.
