Photos of Race Tracks

I thought this up a couple days ago but didn't have the time to make a thread. If you have photos of race tracks (cars on them or not) you can post them here. They don't have to famous or anything. Just some cool tracks.

Heres a pic from me

I'm not quite sure, I just came across it when searching on google. It's amazing how it zig-zags accross the mountain.

It's not surprising how it zig zags across the road-steep mountains necessitate it. You can't take a harsh grade straight on, you have to take it in doses-ie Lombard St. in San Francisco. What makes me think it isn't real is how the only visible cars in the picture are a Porsche and Ferrari.

Brings to mind the opening sequence of the '69 'Italian Job.'
