Borrowed this from somewhere else and credit is on the image itself, but I found this interesting and wanted to share with everyone here. It's not ALL tracks but a lot of them being scaled for comparison. Wow I thought the Nurburgring would be one of the largest so this was pretty shocking for me (save to your machine and zoom in to see the detail):

Regular racing took place there until 1998. It is an amazing looking track as it's basically two highways with a U-turn at each end.
Here's more info on it, unfortunately it's now just part of the Autobahn into Berlin:

really cool. I saw that recently somewhere else, but can't recall where. I like looking for the tracks I've run/been to. I have a lot more to go!

My list is TINY compared to most others. But I plan to expand that list now that my kid is getting older and can appreciate it.
