I forget the exact code, it's exhibition of speed now though, which is a 2point infraction. Plea bargain options are looking up.
Sounds like:
"23109. (c) No person shall engage in any motor vehicle exhibition of
speed on a highway, and no person shall aid or a bet in any motor
vehicle exhibition of speed on any highway."
If you look up definition of "highway" in the vehicle code, it is fuzzy enough that it might include parking lots, but maybe not. Ask your lawyer.
"360. "Highway" is a way or place of whatever nature, publicly
maintained and open to the use of the public for purposes of
vehicular travel. Highway includes street."
Exhibition of speed includes general showing off, so burning rubber counts as exhibition of speed.
Don't quit fighting with your lawyers help, exhibition of speed is still serious, although a lot better than the original charge
