MOUNT PANORAMA 1967

Early history
Prior to European settlement, the area was home to the Wiradjuri people. The Wiradjuri called Mount Panorama Wahluu, meaning "to watch over", and it was an initiation site for young men. According to the Dreamtime, a warrior named Wahluu was killed by his brother in a dispute over a young woman – the bloodspill upset Baiame, who caused a volcanic eruption around Wahluu's body to form the mountain of today.

The area's racing history dates back to the 1900s. A man by the name of Dr. Machattie persuaded two local builders to drive from Melbourne to Bathurst- a 793 km (493 mi) drive in his steam-powered Thomson. Various circuits made up of public roads made up of dirt and tarmac were raced on starting in 1906. Until 1913, races took place on the 33.0 km (20.5 mi) Peel-Limekilns circuit, then from 1914 to 1925 the 24.9 km (15.5 mi) Yetholme circuit was used, then the incredibly long 100.6 km (62.5 mi) Sunny Corner (also known as the Mount Horrible circuit) circuit was used from 1926 to 1930 and the 11 km (7 mi) Vale Circuit was used from 1931 to 1937. Construction of the Mount Panorama circuit commenced in mid-1936. The first race meeting, for motorcycles, was held on 16 April 1938 and the first race, the 1938 Junior Tourist Trophy, was won by 20 year old Queenslander Les Sherrin riding a Norton. The first car race, the 1938 Australian Grand Prix, was held two days later and was won by Peter Whitehead driving an ERA.

It's set by the track files, not independently, so 37mph=60kph

 

The track creator built it that way. It's a minor thing, so I'm leaving it like that.

 

None taken, whatsoever.

And always remember that your fellow SRO members have also put in a lot of time practising for this race,
so please be careful and respectful with your buddies.

 

Thanks for the info. Good luck with the house, if we don't see you

Btw, didn't you drive a Ferrari last time?
We have to keep the same car throughout the series, but you are allowed 1 change within the same class. So if you take the Austin now, that will be your car

 

I am re-starting Qual in 2 minutes. That will fix it.

 

You go through the pit lane for a drive through. If you stop in your pit box, you still have to do the penalty. You can't do both.

 

The Doctor couldn't hold his appointment because he had died?

Yeah, that is a special track. It was converted by Corti on my request. I loved that track back in the rFactor 1 days. Did multiclass racing and everything there at Race2Play.
