Also, that clip they showed of the collision at the start (I guess it was last year??) was crazy. The fireball was amazing.
That was at Wannerro in my home town though. Just for reference, not at Bathurst!

It's a public road obviously, so you can drive it anytime you want.

I have driven the track many times over the years. It is trully awesome and scary at the same time. Well worth the trip down here.


Dam, its getting very interesting already

Being a passenger is a totally different world mate.

I was trying to decide if DW just simply looked old on that lap, or did have some serious G-induced second thoughts. He's certainly the "actor" though; you're right about that!
