Best place to take a drive?
If you could go anywhere in the world, just to drive, where would it be? Leave out tracks for now, I just wanna know if there's a certain place that you guys have been to or want to go to in the future.
Honestly, I don't know of many places, but the show Top Gear seems to praise the Isle of Man (sp?) for its lack of speed limits. I always see these amazing European roads in car mag photoshoots, especially in BMW's press release videos & photos. I just want some ideas for the future.

The backroads of my family's homeland! Modena, Italy...which also happens to be the worlds "Supercar Capital" and the birthplace of Enzo Ferrari.

Well, I was trying to find places other than tracks, but ya that'd also be nice. I plan on going there one day. That, and Laguna Seca, Sebring (real close), and another place I can't think of atm.

The Col de Turini in France.
The Stelvio Pass in Italy. Both from the Top Gear episode [10x01]. I know there are so many other places that would be great, I just need to find out where they are... |

TECHNICIALLY, the North Loop of the ring isn't a race-track. It is a 1-way toll road with no speed limit for a majority of the drive.
