Anyone know of somewhere in the North Warks area where there is a carpark that maybe suitable for a bit of playtime with my S2000 ??

Magna Park? Probably too much security now.

Bruntingthorpe?

May be bit far for you, but me V15Ben Polarbert and Tea boy used to go to Donny Park overflow carpark for Ferrari fun. Normally no one around. Also the fields on the outskirts are good for offroading and there is gravel for drifting on too. We had plenty of fun thrashing the Ferrari round the Fields.

Do it on some deserted roundabouts and public roads. So long as you don't speed or use your phone while driving you'll be fine! hehe

Lol that car park was good fun in the 360 mate, third gear or not. The security guy from the airport parking further down actually helped us out when Matt was messing about in the Smart car and got stuck in the field!

Get over to Driftworks they'll have all the info I'd have thought - there's also a few guys book up Birmingham Wheels for some drif practice, worth looking into.
