What's your favourite V8 racetrack?

[kyles]

Just for curiosity's sake Bathurst would be mine..... although I might be biased as it's only 2 mins from my place Best race in the world

Well, I've driven around Calder, and also been driven around Calder, and its not bad.

Hard to beat Bathurst though.

V8 there is no question:



Or for all time it would either be the above or one of these:

were you not actually allowed to go over 20km's or something? that was really boring watching that after a whole lifetime of watching the real thing

[TVR-190]

Speed limit of 60Kph, and yes it looks VERY slow

It's a public road.... speed limit 60KPH.

oh really? ive never been there so i always thought it was a permanent race track.

OPs question isn't really clear.

Track with the most history, Bathurst without a doubt.

Best track to attend to watch a race, Clipsal is the winner (i've never been to bathurst, but plenty of people i know who have say clipsal owns Bathurst for at the track)

[edals]

Bathurst For sure. Has everything, Skyline to the Dipper is the best part, so fast and skatey lol. And Holden is still king of the mountain hehe

[S.O.S]

Symmons plains.

[Grennan]

Indy. I rekon the street tracks are the most exciting. However Bathurst is the best race.

Off topic...but how many speed cameras are on that track during...normal times. I would imagine youd get every tom dick and harry blasting through there.

[TVR-190]

we saw about 5 different cop cars when we were there grennan, and they had a speed trap set up also at 1 point, but normally they just do laps in their VE SS'

[thedeadwalk]

best of all = Bathurst, most history = le mans 24hr, track i'd like to see the v8s at = laguna seca

When did the V8s race there?

[thedeadwalk]

my bad i was thinking most history of all car racing

[stu-k]

Bathurst would have to be the best, Queensland raceway the worst followed by indy and other street tracks

[minux]

Phillip Island by a mile.

I dont class Racetracks as ones that are not used all year to race on. Bathurst, Clipsal etc are just street circuits.

[dirt drifter]

oran park was good to watch the races at, too bad it wont exist for much longer
as for the best track any of us mere mortals will get a chance to drive on, i can't decide between phillip island and eastern creek (yes i am aware that the V8's aren't at the creek any more)

[thedeadwalk]

it sucks that nsw is getting rid of all the races we're the ones who started the v8 raceing in aus and now we're giveing it all away

[UFO]

The Best: The Mountain, closely followed by the Island.

The Worst: The poopshoot that is Sydney Olympic Park.... but I'm not a fan of the tight Montecarlo type racetrack. I much prefer the more open and fast tracks. ie not too many walls track edge and nice and wide where you can have 3 cars side by side jockeying for position into the corners.
