Default [fl] places to drift in south florida?

Hey all, I'm kind of new to the drift scene and want a legit place to drift. I see all these videos of places in CA, New Orleans, and pretty much everywhere in the country except SFL that holds open parking lot style events (like an SCCA type track with cones), but I have not seen any of that in South Florida.

I am familiar with the Ter Tec events @ PBIR, Countyline skid pad, DeSoto and XDC tracks. Drifting on a full-blown track seems a bit unforgiving for a beginner - walls suck.

I have seen huge parking lots to hold events (Sun City Casino, Miami-Dade Transit Authority HQ, etc). Is there a reason that open lot events aren't popular down here?

If anybody knows how this works, I'd be willing to help out making calls or organizing the event to get people here. If it's a matter of getting enough people to make it worth it, I don't think that'll be a problem.

The reason is most likely because there are so many tracks that allow drifting. If you're a begginer then just take it slow, no need to go out and try to show off.
