A place to drive?

Does anyone know a good place to practice driving? I want to find a place with alot of turns where I can practice pushing my car. Somewhere safe and away from people. Perferably legal but I have no money to spare so I ono.

I'd like to know all my options. Or if you are willing, teach me a few things. If I had the money to spare i'd head to skip barbers racing school but eh oh well lol.

Redline usually has the cheapest that I've seen. For example, their one in Feb at Streets of Willow is $110: http://www.redlinetrackevents.com/event_Feb10.html

Look into Auto Cross. I haven't been to any events, but I've talked to a couple of guys and done some reading on it. From what I understand you throw down a couple of bucks ($30 from what I remember) and you volunteer for half of the event and get to drive the other half. (Or something like that, I don't remember exactly.)
