View Full Version : Good Twisties in the Carolinas? Low Level 05-13-2008, 10:13 PM I live in Myrtle Beach, SC --- can anyone recommend some good twisties that aren't TERRIBLY far away? Perhaps some good roads that are near a good campground, or a fun town, to make for a weekend trip that includes fun driving and then some beers in the evenings... ?

But that is a little bit farther away for you... 540IForMe 05-19-2008, 12:36 AM kinda far, but the NC mountains cant be beat, and lots of things going on, easy to make a weekend out of it Parkway ftw!!! Veritas325 05-19-2008, 06:52 PM the Tail sucks these days, as it is heavily patrolled and they lowered the speed limit to 35. Asheville is a good center location for most of the twisty roads in North Carolina. There is highway 215 ( I believe) tat is near the SC border. go to WNCrides.com , they have a section dedicated to the roads of the WNC area. It's a good resource.

I'm actually going up to Asheville during the weekend of 6 June --- specifically to go do some driving on some twisties :D Gonna bring my E30 M3, with some recent upgrades. Anyone want to join me? extra chrispy 05-19-2008, 10:02 PM Good info!

Come check out the Wolf Ridge Hillclimb (June 7 and 8). Its about 30 minutes north of Asheville (in rural, mountainous, Madison County). See the thread in this section or PM me for more info.

Not just about the "Dragon", either. If you peruse the site you will find a wealth of trip ideas. Have fun! :buttrock BMWmotorsports 05-22-2008, 12:44 AM lookup Shull's Mill Road in the NC mtns its an awfully crazy road |
