| This left-turning bend
near the top of Mount Panorama was named after a very famous race driver
who drove Open Wheelers back in the early days of the Bathurst Circuit.
Getting the timing right here, coming out of Reid Park, can help to set
drivers up nicely for McPhillamy Park. Getting the timing wrong here can
see precious seconds lost in kerb-hopping across the top.
It was up here in 1974, the year of the famous commentary, that Goss in a McLeod Ford skidded across the track on top of the mountain in heavy rain — 'just aquaplaned across the road ... bank bloody heavily,' — while leader, Peter Brock was six laps ahead. In one of the most dramatic races of all time, Goss went on to do the unthinkable, winning the contest from a previously unwinnable position. |
