Touge behind my house is barely two-lane and the road is old and bumpy as hell. Also there's plenty of houses on the side so it's dangerous to go over 60mph. Doesn't help that most corners are blind. But it's fun to drive on though, it's actually rare to see any ricers there.

Here are a couple roads I enjoy driving on at home:
Bouquet Canyon (Santa Clarita)
Mulholland (Malibu)
And I couldnt get a good satellite image of Kanan due to the smaller roads around it but I used to drive that every morning on the way to work in Malibu before I left for school.

Here in the desert, there are very little touge roads here. I do live inside of the valley, and I bet there are roads there that are interesting, but I've never driven the border mountains besides the one I'm about to mention. There is a highway near me the leads into Oceanside, and that highway is centered by a couple valley mountains and it's pretty curvy.

Haha well there is the Shenandoah mountain pass only 50 miles away or so but it is very tight and only good for the high elevation at like 2,000+ ft. I could be wrong but still its a mountain pass. Someone would need real balls to go on that pass full throttle

I would like to start by saying a do not condone any illegal or morally wrong activities on a touge or any other road for that matter, with that said i can understand the strong pull people feel to do so and would recommend that you take the utmost care when it comes to this matter.
Secondly i would like to say that in my country (Australia) there is a common unspoken agreement that you do not speak about where you do your runs and im sure it is the same in some other country's. (so i will only show information about a well know road that the cops already know about wink wink)
For those who are looking for local roads to touge i would recommend looking at local motorcycle clubs, websites and forums as i have found they tend to find pleasure in the same types of roads.
Now for the fun stuff
Macquarie pass:
This video shows a map with tracking dot and was very pleased to find this
This video backs up my third point
S13 getting a bit sideways and having some fun
A video showing the bad handling capability of an Australian v8
Hush Hush Touge:
A video of another pass im very glad the poster of this video took the name of the touge out of the title it is a very clean fast run that shows the true joy of a touge
Touge safe guys Wilson out.

I agree with Wilson. My buddies and I touge around the Appalachian mountains in western NC, it's a good time and maybe I can get a video soon.

Hell yea those passes are sick! and obviously I'm sure if people have driven on roads like these there is a Unwritten rule we all go by, As for cops around me they are too busy on the state parkways, thruways, Also busting idiots for selling Herion, crack, etc gotta love NY...

The road I posted cops are always round there because they know there is alot of racing on it, the road was on a police program and the cop was driving uphill right in front of a hairpin bend and a lotus elise came flying round and drifted onto the wrong side of the road, he only just missed the cop car lol was funny as hell

Since I've started college, I've had to drive down this notoriously awful state road that's only two lanes and runs up to Boston. And then I found out about this nice little driving road. Not necessarily touge, but a blast to go 45-60 on in my Altima, and no police ever go there. Currently have photos on Google Maps, but I will record the road somehow soon. Also, those roads are freshly paved for the most part. Oh, there are two connected to each other in the reservation.

Here's my road about 45 minutes out of my house, nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains of North Georgia, this road is heck of a lot of fun to drive fast on, most of its 3 lanes too which is awesome, the road goes on for what seems like forever and even has a almost 200 degree turn.
