I'm from the Netherlands and we have a cool track here called Zandvoort. It was a day where we could drive our car on the track. Here are some pics I'd like to share with you guys:

Ahh, Zandvoort. Arnoux smacking the tyre barrier in 1982, Prost taking Piquet off in 1983 (and then crashing himself a few corners later), Piquet stalling the pole position Brabham BMW in 1985, before Lauda and Prost fought it out tooth and nail...

 

What a great track it was. Changed quite a lot now though, I believe...? Isn't there a housing estate built on the bit where Villeneuve put his smashed 3-wheeled Ferrari back onto the track and drove it back to the pits?

 

 

I'll get me anorak...

the track defenitly has some good history, although I was only 5 years old in 1985 ;)

 

too bad nowadays the safety regulations are too strict for formula one races on Zandvoort, and I have to agree, the walls seem awfully close sometimes :)

That's a tricky corner right there, you can't see it coming because of the height difference. I spun around 2 or 3 times there, but luckyliy I managed to stay on the track. Gotta love those days ;)

I've had the midpipe and downpipe installed since the summer. And I already explained to you that I shouldn't need a boost controller, since the jap imports boost so high when decatted that they need a rectrictor ring to keep the boost down :D
