Default Twisting it up in Bako?

Anyone know a good spot to twist up my suspension in or very close to Bakersfield? Preferably where I wont get arrested.

The Lake Isabella area has a few nice trails. The Freeway Ridge has a combination of washouts, ruts, and rocks. Also some trails that lead out to the Mojave area also. I'm not sure how far you are willing to drive, but the Red Rock area in Mojave has lots of rock crawling trails.

I don't think the offroad park in Hungry valley is open at the moment cuz they just had a big fire there in Frazier park area the past couple of days
