Where to drift in Chicagoland?

If anyone is willing, could I get some PM's from Chicagoland peeps of safe, LEO free places (large unobstructed lots, industrial parks, abandoned runways, etc...) where I could practice skid pad /drifts?

(I know this is sacred info, I appreciate anyplace anyone is willing to share)

As Ill_roller said. ClubFR is a good place to start locally.
We will also post up events, as information becomes available.

We will try to pass the info as soon as things are set in place.
Plenty of events being planned for 2013.

You can also check MyAutoEvents.com.
There are lots of track days listed on that site.
Many of our staff frequent open track days and high speed auto-x events through this site.

Please let us know! I host track time at Autobahn and Blackhawk Farms and have never checked out a drift event. Sounds awesome!
