just thought about something,

if the idea of burnouts worry you because of cop activity, no worries, its on private property, no cops will be breaking anything up, or even stopping by

Just because it's on private property doesn't mean they can't stop you, or stop by.

speed merchant owns the parking lot, if they say that they condone it, then its fine,

but like i said, its not for everyone, the meet maybe isnt your cup of tea, plus its also kinda far, so i can understand you not bein interested

Might wanna check on that. I think any open parking lot w/o any access control is pretty much open game for the cops.
