Georgia is pretty good.
Car scene almost as big as SoCal Lots of great mountain roads Easy access to several road courses within 6 hours driving distance.

Texas is very good, downside is you have to travel far usually for the best roads otherwise it is just flat. Though modifying cars, other enthusiasts, etc. are very prominent in Texas and welcome.

With mods in Texas most cops in big cities won't mess with you, but if youre an outsider in a small town. Any reason to pull you over an bring a little income to the local economy will do. It's also a good way to check you out and let you know they're watching you.

Large cities in TX are good.
Only thing that sucks is attending any meets that are larger than local meets (statewide or national). Driving to the TX border from here sucks.
