Ahh Bathurst - I went once for Brock's last race, without a doubt it was the highest concentration of boganism I've ever seen. Never again.

Being an inner-city boy it was a cultural shock. Mt Panorama is awesome though, some say it's the world's best racing circuit.
I like the fact that when it is not in use you can drive it with basically no traffic. Putting my Camry wide body station wagon around the circuit gave me a much greater appreciation for what the drivers can do.

You can even tour it in Google's street view. Looks like the track side advertising remains year round
When I was there, over 20 years ago, they removed all the temporary adds. Google can't give you the terror as you try and push a hulking great pig of a car through the top of the mountain bends. Years later I took a Mazda 6 around the circuit and it was a completely different experience.

I remember my '62 Falcon (in 1973), however it was NOT a muscle car. At times it had trouble getting down the road.
