The kids were long there before you hit the spot.. lol... Look out for the black S14 there with Meister Gunmetal S1 rims. He'd smoke any of us at the turns.

What are twistys? Do any of you perhaps want to race for money on the highway?

My favorite spot is the parking garage @ Montgomery mall I can Drift Drift all day long.

Since I am in retirement in about 1.5 months...

this was my columbia route and it was absolutely perfect! I didnt see one cop the entire trip...other than the Highway getting to Columbia from VA.

Enjoy!!!!!!

1. Start Wal-Mart in Columbia MD

2. Head west on 175 to 29N (briefly)

3. Make LFT to 108 then right onto Centennial LN going north

a. This road goes around the Northrop Fields and Central Park

4. Centennial turns into Bethany LN but we go under 70

5. RT on 99 headed East (away from golf course) or Old Frederick Rd

6. Turn LFT on Dogwood Rd going north but then road turns West.

7. Turn LFT onto 125 or Old Ct. Road (west)

8. Quick RT onto Granite Rd (north)

9. LFT onto Marriotsville Road (south and West) almost back to golf course area.

10. RT onto Wards Chapel Rd. Headed North

11. LFT onto 26 ( Liberty Road ) headed west passing 32 and 97 this crosses over a bridge and the water was picture perfect blue..didnt have a cam at the time! URGH!

12. Left onto Woodbine Rd (94) headed south crossing under 70 still going south to Annapolis …………….Rock area

13. Left onto 108 ( Damascus Road ) traveling south east

a. Turns into 650 New Hampshire Ave.

14. LFT on Bright Dam Road which runs into 32E… end cruise.

takes about 30 mins to get to I295 from here on 32... you are waaay west at this point.

I've mapped out a 30-40 min twisty road course through the back roads of Great Falls, I believe I took a few members on here through the course once while there were sand pebbles everywhere on the ground from last year's snow storm. Maybe we'll do another run before the cold weather hits, but it has to be done past midnight otherwise you'll hit a lot of traffic (roads are only 1 lane.)

Catoctin Mountain Park

The best I've seen so far. Really tight turns all back to back with alot of elavation change. Plus I've never seen a cop up their. It's not too far from Mason Dixion racetrack. I always take this road when going to Mason Dixion. The only down side is pretty much no shoulder except large rocks.

I left work around 3:30 today (I work on Godwin), and drove out here (took about 10 min). And I had a blast. I did this road about 4 times, including the mild drive to scope out the area. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can come back with a passenger and take a video (using my phone, if it even lasts that long lol) if anyone cares
