In Florida, where I live, almost every auto parts store has a "waste oil" (not hazardous waste) recovery program. The county I live in (county next to the county for Gainesville) has solid waste disposal sites. The state/county encourges drop off of used motor oil. I don't know the law, for certain, but I think as long as the used oil is less then a certain amount, it is perfectly legal to transport it in the original containers (or even milk jugs), in your personal vehicle.
If NHRA/Gainesville raceway will not allow you to retain custody of your used oil, is that not a violation of the law? It is your property, is it not?

PS: Hi Rich, haven't seen you since the old days at the cabbage patch.
