You say you will take whatever precautions you can, but you still race on roads. Which is it?

What sort of emergency support do you have there? Anything in case a bystander gets hit? Anything in case something goes up in a fireball (yeah.. I know.. nitrous is completely non-flammable.. right :))? Thought so.

I have a somewhat harder time condeming road racing on private roads. However, you're still lacking the fire/EMT crews you'd see at a track. If it takes the police 1-2 hours to respond, how long do you think it'll take the fire department to respond? What if there's other unforseen traffic?

Racing on public roads is just plain stupid. No two ways around it.

If you're going to put your own life at risk, that should be your choice. When you start making that choice for other people without their permission as you do with racing on public roads... you've crossed that line.
