if you're near the titusville area,about 10-15mins from trenton, there are alot of really tight 2 lane twisty roads there. The speed limit is usually around 35-40 but alot of the turns i wouldnt take much faster than 50 so you can have some fun and not worry about cops, although ive never seen any around anyways.

yep, well sort of. the roads are right off 31, i usually take titusville road and follow that all the way to the end , which isnt a bad road, and make a right. theres all kinds of hilly twisty sides streets back there. It's pretty amazing that 15 mins from the trenton slums are hilly farm type back roads.

There are some pretty nice roads up around Washington Rock Park, off of rt. 22. The turns are deceivingly sharp, especially when coming downhill. I've seen another Z up here before.

me and my friend have a little route through kinnelon we call "the track"

this really isn't a good idea to go crazy on and what we do on these roads could easily get us arrested, let alone the fact that we've almost died once or twice...but its still fun!

theres also some good roads down 23 north, and some more you can take between 23 north and 80

This should start a "Twistie Roads" in the regions section. A place where we can post a road we have driven so others can find it.

Johnson (sp?) Drive in watchung is a nice hilly/twisty road. This might be the road 04_CS_Z33 was talking about.

being in south jersey the deer definitly scare me, i see them all the time out on less populated roads, i drive slower where i usually would want to drive faster because nothing is around. my dad hit a deer going 60 in his brand new f150 2 weeks after he bought it. didnt do much damage to his truck but definitly would have been over the hood on a z.

8+ year bump from a Google search! Anyone have anything new? I'm 3 minutes from the exit 114/Red Hill road, that is very residential and we stay away from that. We are looking for some roads to just cruise on, nothing crazy, just something new, different, and fun.

Thumbs up

Lets get a bear mt cruise going need to take the Z out soon before hibernation time :/

Even driving up to new paltz on the taconic is a blast !!! the road is so twisty and the speed lim is 65 so you wont worry to much about getting pulled over
