Congrats on the new love and the new Z! We've got some curves here on the island. There is a mountain pass call Tantalus over here thats about DEEP corners back to back for about a 3 1/2 mile stretch. Not a high speed drive but ridiculously fun!

We have a lot of curvy roads in Cleveland, but that's just to get around all of the bic a$$ chuckholes. First you're like and then it's like .

Seriously, there are many curvy roads around NE Ohio, but if you want to get serious, you need to travel to the Southern part of Ohio.

Actually mults many of the roads in Indianapolis aren't anything to write home about either. (Excluding the big oval downtown....I forget what they call that race they have every May.)

I'm always down there for the Moto GP . Although I heard Indianapolis will no longer be hosting it?
