With the temperature rising into the two digits; 14 degrees Celsius and the dry weather were the perfect combination to swing by the Zandvoort circuit where several car dealers in American brands exhibited a part of their collection. Among them were: Auto Bedrijf Andre Boer,\u00a0 Bosv8supercars, and of course Carway. One of the eye-catchers was the Sebring Orange ZR-1 Chevrolet Corvette exhibited by Autobedrijf Andre Boer. Another eye-catcher was the C8 R special edition Corvette brought by car Carway. The C8.R edition was a celebration of Corvette Racing\u2019s inaugural racing season with the C8.R race car and Chevy only made a thousand of this R edition. If you had your wallet with you, you could have bought yourself a nice ride to drive back home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Also, the Unity low-riders club exhibited some of their finest low-rider cars. Since the early days of hot rods, muscle cars have been modified & personalized. This personalization had a revolutionary twist with the ability to change the car’s height by flipping a switch: The Low rider culture was born. The unity low riders club was there representing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moving on to the strip, Arie Wester was the man to beat in the Drag races. The grandstand was the place to be for the adrenaline seeker. As it became a tradition, the straight part of the circuit will become a quarter-mile track. Around fifty participants competed against each other for the number one spot. Remarkable was that the semi-final and final races were between a Camaro and a Corvette. In the last race between Arie Wester (1969 Chevrolet Corvette) and Johannes Moster (1994 Chevrolet Camaro), Arie proved to be too quick for Johannes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

The ones looking for an adrenaline rush without the need to be inside a car were to be found at the RC arena. The RC Arena was the place for the downs sized cars. TMJ Racing RC group and No Prep RC DRAG NL group joined forces and entertained the audience with quarter-mile and Big scale RC races. TMJ Racing RC group founded by racer, Tymon Wijngaarde, is a group of RC car owners who organize races with Big Scales remote-controlled cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the world of RC, anything above 1\/8 scale is considered a big scale. TMJ Racing RC group organizes several events and races in the Netherlands. Big Scale racers use 32 cc engines and compete on and offroad track. Competitors get an onboard tracker which records the elapsed time. The one who can set the quickest lap wins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Drag Race RC was in the hands of No Prep RC Drag NL. They are a small group of twenty members enthusiasts who developed a passion for the RC quarter-mile race. RC quarter-mile races are not well known here in the Netherlands but are very popular in the Dutch Caribbean and the United States. Categories during these races are; Pro Outlaw, Pro Street, Stock & Stock Brushed. These 2000 grams cars can reach a top speed above 100 km\/hrs. Unfortunately, the conditions of the designated area for the RC races weren’t good enough for some side-by-side races. After several crashes, the teams present decided to hold solo demo runs. That didn’t take the fun away. Like RC DRAG NL leader Tanguy Gouverneur Highlight it; it is part of the lifestyle! We build it, race it, break it, fix it, and start all over again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
