The place was torn down before I had a chance to go there so I'm just going off of what I've read.

The first shot is turn 5 going up the hill to turn 6.
Second is looking down the hill from 6 back towards the esses.
I'd have to dig out some old pics and scan 'em but I've spectated from both those places.

The Simca Fulgur was a concept car from 1958 and first displayed at the 1959 Geneva Auto Show. It was also displayed at the New York Auto Show, and the 1961 Chicago Auto Show. The concept car was intended to show what cars in the year 2000 would look like. It was imagined it would be atomic powered, voice controlled and guided by radar. When driven over 150 miles an hour it would use only two wheels balanced by gyroscopes.

Although the Yugo was not imported into the US after 1991, these East-European 4-wheeled tin cans were quietly in production up until November 2008.

In the U.S. the Yugo is best remembered as being the Euro-equivalent to the Edsel or Aztek, as it was most often on the receiving end of jokes, some of which are:
Why does a Yugo have a defroster on the rear window? To keep your hands warm while you push it.

What do you call a Yugo's shock absorbers? Passengers.

The Yugo came out with an air bag. Before an accident you had to start pumping real fast though.

How do you double the value of a Yugo? Fill the gas tank!

What do you call a Yugo at the top of a hill? A miracle.

The Probe 16's claim to fame is from the movie "A Clockwork Orange" where it was called a "Durango '95". The cars were designed by former Marcos cars designers Dennis and Peter Adams.
