Ahuh .. so it is a known track ... Ive just never heard it mentioned before, especially it being so close too.
$650 seems a tad steep though .... anyone been there and can report on the track????/training??

(From interwebs)
It seems to be a fact, that this track does infact exsist on the central coast of NSW near Kulnura.
It apparently belonging to Mr Dean Wills... the old CEO of Coca Cola. The track is a private track and it was infact build for him to flog his McLaren F1 and other toys he has to enjoy. (who said Money can't buy happiness?)
HRT are rumoured to have had secret test days up there in the past...

I think one of the mags may use it too???
If you look at it on Google maps, it looks to have a lot of TREES around the outside of the turns. Maybe they are better than sandtraps???

No it's not Marulan. It's a privately owned track. Look up the Circuit Breakers website for more detail.

This may be urban legend but the story on the Kulnura track goes like this -
The owner applied to build the track to be used for his private use in the '70's. Not surprisingly he was knocked back by local council. So instead he applied to build an access road, left out the fact that it had 22 corners and would be 5+ks long and it was duly approved........It does link from the road to the house.......
And his son wrote off his Maclaren F1 several years ago somewhere down around Akuna Bay. I remember reading the article and thinking it left my indiscretion of writing off my dad's old SR500 somewhat down the scale of young, dumb son screw-ups.
