Stunt driving play day

A lot of people have been asking and we now have a chance. With the stunt company I work with and our insurance policy we can rent the police skid pad for the day (10am-8pm) for $600.
We have about 6-8 drivers from our company "Extreme stunt driving team" that will be comming and we would like to get 10-15 more to help with the cost.
It will be $30 per person. That is ALL day, in and out if you want to. We aren't here to make money we just want to cut costs. We won't have more than 20 or so it would get kind of crowded, even though not everyone is driving ALL the time you get the picture.
We can set up ANYTHing we want to. Of course trying to keep some sort of organization makes it a lot more fun.
There is a Skid pad to wet down and practice slides and drifting and "parellel parking" ect.
A lot of room for dry drifting and autocross action.
This is not a "class" but we can help out if you want to learn something.
This is a feeler for interest before we try to schedule it. Hoping for the middle of MAY on a weekend.
Lets start a list of interest:

For under 50 bucks, what kind of room we talkin? I'd like to get up to speed and test some stuff, log, practice heal/toe, fine tune the sways, enough where i can finish/pull over and not have to worry about being timed or using the expensive time we usually pay for

EDIT: Is there race gas nearby?

If you have been to a Martin's Autocross they use a police skid pad.
I can't find the actual dementions but it is a big square with a black top pad in the middle for the slides. It is made like a parking lot and I can top out 2nd gear and into 3rd in a stragiht line and stop, maybe 400-500ft.
I have never sseen race gas in the area but never looked either. It is on Simson rd. in Kissimmee. right off the t-pike.

Cool, could turn out to be a fun little day, i'm down. I'd say 4 areas if ya''ll feel like it Straight area with figure 8 style cones (just one on one end and one on the other) for anyone who wants to log/tune, then the drift area on the blacktop, then a small autocross, and then a putz around area maybe. Would love to see some kramer parallel 4 wheel slide into a parking spot sh*t too Are you guys bring any "company" cars out that we could practice this or that in?

Hey no dates yet, we have to get availability of the pad from them, it will have to be mid to end of May. Just getting an idea cuz we got to pay first so it looks like we will set a day I think enough people will show I will let you all know.
The people from Extreme (that is our stunt company) will be renting cars to play on. That is how we roll when we seriously tear them up. I use my car cuz I like to drift it a bit. I bet someone may let you play who knows what deals can be made.
