Australia’s Great Race - the Bathurst 1000 - starts at 11.30am with eager drivers ready to take on the famed Mount Panorama circuit. Follow all the action:
As we mentioned before, reporter Emma Kemp is on the ground in Bathurst today, and has been soaking up the atmosphere around Mount Panorama all week. Here’s a sneak peek at what she’s witnessed so far: Mark Chicka can’t remember exactly when the quantity of beer cans became unmanageable, just that the pile of empties was growing too fast for the available receptacles in his group’s Mount Panorama campsite.
“We didn’t know where to put the cans, and it was something to do in the downtimes,” Chicka says as he admires the illustrious aluminium tower before him. “We actually stuck them on the pole the first year, then we couldn’t get them off.”The first year was almost 30 years ago, when his mate Adam Clark took up the spot alongside their “Shell Corner” neighbours and, through the event’s first right-of-refusal policy, held on to it ever since.
