Bathurst is Australia's oldest inland town, it's also where you will find Mount Panorama, the place where the biggest car racing event of the year takes place.
It's the premiere V8 race that separates the real drivers and vehicles in Australian racing. This is where the whole Holden versus Ford thing really got up and running.
Hell Corner, Mountain Straight and Forest Elbow are all well known landmarks in the journey around the track. The winner now receives the Peter Brock Cup trophy names after the legend, the man who won the race an amazing nine times.
The clip above features some classic moments on the mountain all the way back from Bill Brown's crash in 1970.
You can also check out classic moments featuring Jack Brabham, Kevin Bartlett, Dick Johnson, Tom Walkinshaw and Larry Perkins.
We know we've only scratched the surface here, what's your favourite Bathurst moment?
