Why don't we meet at Carlsbad Raceway. Who ever wants to can run 1/4 mile runs and other's can just watch. I think it's $10 to get in, another $12 to race.

Mesa Grand is more fun than Ortega, but shorter.
Pines to Palms Hwy has some nice hairpins, but you end up in Palm Springs.
The Vallecito run actually makes a nice trip and Julian is great place for lunch.
... and I'm sure there are some more

The Vallecito link I posted was merely for reference; I am not suggesting we do a run of that length, but we could.
Another good one:

I did not know you were looking for a good road to travel. If you get down to San Diego one weekend and want to have fun, drive from Julian through the mountain range that Green Valley has to offer. I love to drive that stretch of road, it is great if you got the stomach for it. The Benz will not dissapoint your driving needs.

To be honest, I'm not actually too interested in a spirited drive cause I just sold my RX-7 and the C240 isn't really anywhere near as fun, but if you guys are gonna have a GTG somewhere afterwards, I'll be there

I've been on roads scarier than the Ortega, heck I owned a cabin by Lake Gregory, I know what it's like to drive mountain roads, still prefer the Ortega for the wild ride.
