Palm Coast. It is south of St Augustine and North of Daytona Beach. It is not a tourist meca and was founded by a development company in 1995 so it is well laid out and modern. Virtually every house is 1995 or newer.

I will still come north to do the Tail of the Dragon with the Spyderchat group and do some SE Ohio runs with my brother (and you guys if anyone is around).

It is unlikely we will sell our house and move before summer so I still have one good season of SE Ohio roads ahead.

Are you talking the Meadows Run/Tail of the Newt?

Near brecksville in the metro parks?

The Boston Mills/Brandywine area is pretty nice too.

Actually, we headed down to southeast Ohio last fall and did a nice run on RT26, RT260 and RT555. It is a bit of a drive but well worth it if you can invest a day into driving the cars the way they were meant to be driven. The last groups was comprised of 2 MR2 Spyders, a VW GT1 and 10 or so BRZ and FR-S.

There are a few roads around the Metro Parks that are nice but the speed limits are 35MPH and there is quite a bit of traffic. The speed limits down south are 55MPH and there is very little traffic and even less LEOs.

We were in the Hocking hills area, but the park is a bit west of where we were.

The routes I would like to do in the spring are closer to Hocking Hills. The west section of RT78, RT278, RT555, RT669, RT56, RT274 and RT664. The last three form a triangle in Hocking Hills State Park.

I added the front lip to my car this winter. Also have a few other goodies that I'm doing.
1. Front lip
2. Rear Spoiler
3. Rear Diffuser custom made
4. CF dash panels
Plus whatever else comes along. Can't wait for spring!!

Shot of Rear Spoiler

Just need it to warm up a bit so I can install this. It goes on with 3M tape so it need to get a bit warmer so it will stick.

Looking good pete. I like the CF look. What front diffuser did you end up going with?

To contrast Pete's picture, this is what I came out to see this past Wednesday:

I'm fabricating my own rear diffuser. I've made several templates and finally decided on one Saturday. Have it all cut out including the fins. Just need to test fit it B-4 I paint it and install it.
