I finally got to Oran Park!!!! RIP Oran Park

[Odie]

Yup well as the title says I finally got a go on Oran park in sydney before it closed forever!!!!

Infact it was the last day ever... About 100+ cars let loose on the track for the last time ever. The final lap was a parade of everyone, with helicopter filming it... Very cool and quite emotional for the owner of the track.

It is well was an awesome track and without seeing it in person you have no idea of just how technical it is (was)... The bridge is awesome and god knows how the V8 boys did it 2 wide!!!

Photos and video coming soon provides it turns out ok... Had a film crew there all day worst part of the day was seeing the bulldozers driving onto the track behind us as we did the last lap

RIP Oran Park

Why did they shut it down?

Ah.... google is my friend.

Cant believe they sold the land to the govt to build houses on it..... Not like there isnt plenty of land elsewhere in Aussie to build!!!!

Sad day!

Didn't you know everybody like street circuits now...i think most of them are as boring as batshit. Oran was an old style circuit, Eastern Creeek was suppoosed to be its replacement years ago but Oran just wouldn't die.....until now.

Sad day

Glad one of our own was there to farewell it though.

Throwing houses over whatever they can... stink. Developers eh? Same reason they flattened the house my grandfather built - they wanted another driveway for the school behind him -______-;;

There was rumours of Oran Park 2 but it looks like the council have changed thier minds now that they have the Homebush street track... but there will be another one soon by the sounds of it, just not by the owner of OP.
