I was there for a week between the Spa and Zandvoort F1 races in 68. I was introduced to numerous frite sauces ( I’m probably the only Yank to use mayo on my fries) and too many great beers to remember . I watched testing in the Brabham pits where I met Dan Gurney. Awesome place for a 19 year old American to “wait” during the break beteen races.
I had a quick look at a few threads couldn't find an answer. 
A little question guys
Why has the race dates changed? To having the eu & na during the same week as the TT. I thought the idea of having them on the following week was to give people time to get used to the car & track. Especially when tuning is allowed.
Gl with that...Get on this, Kaz.
Awesome pics Guido. You must have had a great time.
That grind to 20 milion has nasty written all over it. It makes you really apreciate B-Spec races. In gt6 i used to just run my ps3 while i was studying, restarting a race ever 15 minutes and being able to grind 50 million in a weekend. O how the times have changed.
One of my all time favourite cars in Gran Turismo , I hope it still drives as well as it did in other releases
Now all I have to do is get enough Cr's
I'm not a big fan of his switch to black wheels, I think silver would have been better, but ... it's not my car! 
We only did a ~2mile loop around his neighborhood (Magnolia in Seattle), which has really bad concrete/asphalt, so not a great way to experience it. He knew every spot on the route that the front was going to scrape due to being so low, and he mostly slowed enough on those to avoid it. He gave it the beans a couple times when traffic cleared ahead of us, and the way the rear was squirming and raring to go was awesome! He said he only hit about 50% throttle and no more, otherwise in his words "we'd be dead now".
I'm not sure how authentic it is, but I'll ask him next time.
