Anyone remember the Euro's in 2001, France (St Gaudens)? They had a few really nice sections, a pair of doubles going away from you at an angle before a 160 degree corner on to the main straight which again came at an angle but towards you then a nice right hander followed by a large(ish) jump....
In 2wd you had to come right to the inside, but in 4wd you had to drift wide out of the straight and jump it right on the outside, just clearing a bit of pipe each time – it was awesome.

I loved st gaudens, but it seemed only the Losi cars would take that double double, the B3's didn't like it at all!
I thought sweden washboard whoops section from 2000 euros was pretty ace, I have not seen a nice washboard/whoops section on any other track as good as that one.
this was back in the days before the big meetings got photographed, shame really.
