Whincup (88) - Oran Park

Taken at Oran Park last year. It was the last time the V8’s were going to race there. A sad time for them.

    Great image that sums up the place well.

    Ahh I so miss the park – I ran there a few times myself – such a wonderful roller coaster track.

  • Bill Fonseca replied

    You’re not wrong about the roller coaster track. I’ve got a few others where the cars are on 2 wheels through this section. Thanks John

    Nice shot Bill. That angle is quite unique to Oran Park. You’ll be pleased to know the V8’s are still racing at Oran Park this year. This will be their last though which is such a shame. Should be massive though – early December, a four day festival of motorsport and the grand finale of the V8 series this year.

  • Bill Fonseca replied

    Thanks for that David. We were all told last year that it was to be the last. Cool. Might venture out there.

    great angle Bill!

  • Bill Fonseca replied

    Thanks Sarah, I love what they call ‘Marbles’ in the foreground (The rubber) from the wheels, really makes this image more interesting.

    Cool shot Bill.
    Oran park is a shit hot track. I used to go there every year during the late 80’s and early 90’s. It truly is sad to see it’s demise like Amaroo before it…...

  • Bill Fonseca replied

    Thanks Boz, Gees Amaroo – Now that is a blast from the past mate.
