Drifting sheffield

So been looking for places to drift local and not be drawn into illegal street drifting.. all I’m thinking is the old airport at tinsley Sheffield which now sits derelict next to a new business park. Do you think a possibility of getting permission would be granted and if so I’d imagine restrictions would be very harsh with a busy surrounding such as the need to run as a wet track and very low decibels from the exhaust to prevent any disturbance to the surrounding public. Just want somewhere local to practice my drifting don’t see it worth the repercussion if to get caught street drifting.
 
Absolutely no chance, you can't just pitch up anywhere and run an event, even with the land owners permission

There's nothing left of the runway is there? It got ripped up.
 
I’m not too sure I just saw it on google maps and I don’t know just was hoping for somewhere closer than Buxton or Stafford but I guess the commute I will have to take
 
Yea it's not just finding a suitable location, it's one that's allowed to hold motorsports events/activities.

The old Aerodrome at Norton would be ideal, but would you f*ck get permission to do anything there.
 
Yeah not a chance although there use to be driving lessons there but I think the smoke would cause too much pollution with it being a built up area
