What are some of you favorite roads around Charlotte?
One of mine is Mayes Rd from Old Statesville (north of Huntersville) then across 73 and a right back to Old Statesville.
77 and 85 get old real fast from commuting, so let's hear about some fun roads.

Carolina Motorsports Park, about 1hr south of Ballentyne area. Great 2.2 miles of road, 14 corners : D
Take it to the track, please!

You misunderstand. I'm not talking about wild driving or even exceeding the posted speed limit. Just fun to drive rather than stuck in traffic on the interstate.

Sorry for the confusion. I understand completely regarding traffic. When I first went to UNCC a few years ago, I drove to the southside of town to checkout Uptown and other areas...bad call at 4:00 on a weekday afternoon--ended up being an hour drive back to campus!
Rocky River and some of its sideroads are decent, but I don't have much experience with backroads in the area. Tom Short Rd. off Ballentyne Commons is a nice one
