Do they exist? I was replying to another post about how easy it is to navigate around here because all of the roads are straight. That is a good thing. But the part that sucks is, I haven't found any roads that are twistie or exciting in any way. These are what I enjoy the most about driving my car, and Indiana had plenty. Now that I live here, where can I go to find some twisties? Anything with more than two lanes is automatically excluded.

If that is the case then I am going to have to drive extremely fast on straight roads to make up for it. Man, that really sucks.

That would be a bad idea. Save the money you would pay for speeding fines & come with us all for the Dragon Runs. We're gonna have one in the spring/summer & then there's the extra special one in the fall. Those trips are worth every penny, & every minute on the Tail of the Dragon is absolutely heart pounding! Try it, really!
Check it out here.
In the mean time, there's an active auto-cross chapter near you. That's some FUN stuff and not expensive. Try looking up SCCA events near you.

Out in Ocala, Gainsville, and some parts along the west coast have some turns and elevation changes, but nothing like mountains. The best your gonna get is on and off ramps.

Haha! Funny you should mention that, at Deal's Gap, there are shirts that say "Ride Deal's Gap; 311 turns in 11 miles" and others that say "Ride Florida: 11 turns in 311 miles".  It's funny cuz it's true.
