Just moved 3 weeks ago to Birmingham, AL, and attended my 1st AutoX on May 20th. Placed 2nd, no big deal, only 3 in my class! But, it was a lot of fun, and fellow racers told me of a good local twisty...Grants Mill road!

A good fast (flat out!) run up I459 then turn off onto a great road of short straights into hard S turns, up & down twisting hills and around a lake...and very little traffic (post rush-hour) I loved every second! A great session in my snarling little rice rocket!

How do other members of this board find the great roads to stretch their Stooks? Especially if they are new to the area? I wanna know.

I had such a great drive tonight...I'm still smiling...God I love this car.

BTW...it is a REAL sports car...it has the edge.

No place better than this site to find that sort of info. Even better if your area has a "clubs and affiliates" section. Otherwise, just go out and drive. Worst thing that could happen is that you spend a day driving around in the S2000!

Get an Atlas & Gazetteer for your state from http://www.delorme.com They have great detail, so you can easily see which roads will be fun.

Someone else here posted this site:

I discovered most of the cool roads in the Hill Country by going on sportbike rides w/ my local club...they showed me roads I'd never have discovered otherwise.
