Small update to the mod. Use the link in the quote if you want to try the update.With permission from @RacingSounds , I created a quick and not very good raceday layout for his excellent Zandvoort 2023 track. It was thrown together quickly so there are plenty of mistakes and I can't vouch for the accuracy of the placement of the grandstands. I used the 2020 version of the track as a guide on where to place things. Also, because of the terrain changes he made, the car objects I used don't line up right so you will see some floating and some sunken cars. I plan to do some more work on this eventually, like adding some sponsor billboards in front of the grandstands and a few other things. My hope is that @Pyyer beats me to it so that we can get a good race day mod for the track, but this will have to do for now.
The mod will overwrite @RacingSounds original ext_config files, but no changes were made to his settings. I needed to add a line at the bottom in order for the included grass skins to work, but you do not need to use them. The raceday layout will still work without one of the skins enabled. As for the skins, they will get progressively more burnt out looking as you go down the line. There is also less saturated versions of the skins included if you find the grass too vibrant.
Zandvoort 2023 Raceday Layout
As always, please let me know of any mistakes or suggestions on how to improve it.

-- Changed the way the digital lights work so that they don't flash green all the time.
-- Added a drs_zones file to both the raceday and stock layout and drs_markers to the raceday layout. The drs_zones file comes from Pyyer's 2024 F1 extension. I did not get his permission to use it so I hope he doesn't mind. If he says anything, i'll make my own. I saw no reason to reinvent the wheel so I just used his.
I did not add the drs markers to the base track because that would cause issues for those that use Pyyer's F1 extensions with this track. There would end up being two sets of drs markers. If you don't own\use Pyyer's F1 extensions and want the drs markers on the base track, copy and paste the code below into the bottom of the models_2023.ini file.
[MODEL_4]
FILE=drs_markers.kn5
POSITION=0,0,0
ROTATION=0,0,0
