The original Assen track was first used for the 1925 Dutch TT (Tourist Trophy) race, held on country roads through the villages of Borger, Schoonloo and Grolloo, and organized by the Motorclub Assen en Omstreken. The brick-paved track had a length of 17.75 miles (28.57 km).
-The TT Circuit is the only circuit on the world championship calendar that was already on the calendar when the series started in 1949.
-The Dutch TT is always held on last Saturday of June.
-It is the only roadracing circuit in the series specifically designed for motorcycle racing. However, Champ Car made its Dutch debut in 2007 at Assen.
-The track layout makes it a very technical, twisty circuit with little room for error, although track alterations carried out over the years paradoxically make it a 'safe' circuit. Further alterations were carried out in 2007 for Champ Car.
-Iron Maiden was the first band to have played a concert there, as part of their Somewhere Back In Time World Tour 2008 on 16 August.
