Reviving another old thread. I'm pretty familiar with central Fla having grown up there. There are actually some decent roads because of all the lakes and roads following the shorelines, although speed limits are slow in the residential areas. Here's something I drew up with some of the better stuff going N to S, The interface went a little haywire east of Astatula but shouldn't be hard to figure out. Also it goes by Alex Job's race shop, I'm sure he wouldn't mind visitors if he's around (I'd call ahead, he has a nice operation). Granted it's not the mountains but is some of the better stuff on the peninsula.

Again, there are some good driving roads in Florida, you just have to know where they are. In the 70's I put together a few rallies for PCA events and could string together 3 or 4 days worth of fun backroads now but i'll leave it to the armchair experts to find them because after all, they're experts : )

I stumbled across this a few months ago but have not used it much. Not too many roads show up in FL...

No surprise there, IMO. Seems like race tracks are the way to enjoy a Porsche in FL.

I first discovered the joys of the perimeter Road at FLL airport when I was in High School, driving a 4-banger Mercury Capri. The road has changed a bit, but it still makes me smile.

The Nature Coast area. I have some country farmland roads with no streets intersecting where I can safely open her up

AIA, is the best direct option, you could meander around by going west on 16 which will bring you into the crowded parts of jacksonville, or you could take take the bridge to green cove springs and head north via the new first coast freeway, then west on 90 or I10 to 301N then take 200 which will get you back to amelia islnd

Best drive if you are in N Florida, ( Jacksonville, St Augustine area) is Roebling Road!

Best drive in Florida is a HPDE day at Sebring International Raceway. Ive go about 3 times a year and have had a great time everytime.

In South Fla, Id recommend Snake Road off I75 in Broward County

not a super long drive, but "the Loop" in Ormond is nice, just do not over cook it or you will be swimming. Avoid at all costs during bike week.
