The 2.1 km circuit was opened in 1961 and remained in regular use until the 1970s. It was originally used for top level motorsport including touring car, open wheeler, motorcycle and sidecar racing through the 1960s.

The mountain location was problematical with fog causing delays in the race programs, the track was narrow by today’s standards and surrounded by walls, Armco railings and hillside. The circuit became used less with the opening of other circuits nearer to Sydney, such as Oran Park and Amaroo Park.

In the 1970s the circuit was used for Rally cross, where the cars would use half the bitumen track and a dirt infield section with jumps, like Motocross.

By the 1980s the track was only being used for lap dashes with only one car on the track at a time, this continued until the mid 1990s.

The circuit still exists and can be walked around however it has deteriorated quite badly with grass growing through the track surface and water seepage has caused partial collapse on some sections.

Now known as Garguree (The Gully) it was declared an Aboriginal Place on 18 May 2002.

There was a rally of European sports cars going near the Eiffel Tower then evening we were walking around. Based on some web searching, I think this car is a Lancia Flaminia, but I’m really not familiar enough with those cars to be 100% certain.
