As the customary passage of the Fun Cup, the Zolder circuit still has its share of surprises. Built in 1963, Zolder hosted the Formula One Belgian Grand Prix on 10 separate occasions in the 1970s and 1980s, as well as the 1980 Belgian motorcycle Grand Prix. F1 moved to Zolder in 1973 and with the exception of a race at Nivelles-Baulers in 1974, Zolder was the location of the Belgian Grand Prix until 1982. That year popular Canadian driver Gilles Villeneuve was killed during qualifying at the 1982 Belgian Grand Prix. Villeneuve's Ferrari 126C2 collided at speed with the March of Jochen Mass. The Ferrari was torn up in the accident and when rolling, Villeneuve was thrown from the car.

Climb aboard a Fun Cup on this wonderful hilly track by the beach and get off to a good start. The most famous corner of the circuit is the Tarzanbocht ("Tarzan bend") which provides excellent passing opportunities. The alleged origin of his name comes from a local character nicknamed Tarzan, owner of a kitchen garden in the dunes and who wanted to abandon it if the designers of the circuit named the turn next to his name.
Probably the best suited circuit to the Fun Cup. Short, sinuous and fully visible spectators. The perfect place for a family weekend. Probably the circuit best suited to the Fun Cup.
