Bathurst – the one day of the year when you pray for rain, and when it doesn't, you sit inside all day anyway!
There aren't too many Sundays motorsport fans look forward to more. Even if you're not a dyed in the wool Supercars fan, you'll probably at least watch the first half hour or so when the cars are close and the action is fast and furious.
Most of us, though, will never get the chance to drive the famous Mt Panorama circuit at speed. Unless, of course, you competed in a Bathurst Rally in the 1990s, as I did.
Back then I was a youngster keen to do any rally I could, and when the Bathurst Rally organisers announced that a stage of their rally would take in parts of the track, I couldn't get my entry in fast enough.
Sure, it was a long six-hour haul north west to Bathurst, but it was well worth the effort.
