FL Anyone in Fl have favorite spirited driving spots?

Just wondering if any enthusiasts have favorite spots in Fl for spirited driving. I know that Fl is mostly flat and doesnt have spots like deals gap and so on, but i figure someone out there has a favorite local spot, or maybe a favorite route for going somewhere...

Done that a few times myself - decent spot...

As far as the Keys?......I don't know where are you talking about? The cross over to key largo? The traffic in the keys usually keeps you at or below 45 - and with the traffic - spirited driving is, well, non existant. Tell us more.....

Oviedo has some nice country back roads that used to be fun.....

SR 415 in Sanford is another place to open up with some curves.

The tampa bay area. Our group drives around a bit to several different events and meets, but we seem to have difficulty finding nice roads to drive on. 515 suggested an interesting idea thats not to far from us. And we're in Orlando enough that Sanford wouldnt be a stretch either. Thanks for all the input.

Gainesville, CR225 heading out to the Gainesville raceway and past. Long straights and curves (can do 90+ on these wide curves), no law usually unless there is a big event at the track (ie Gatornationals)
