Its actually a public street and anyone can drive on it. Last time I was there the speed limit was 60, has it changed since then?

A mate of mine went over the ditch recently and had a drive around the track, he reckons it's a hell of alot steeper and the corners are alot sharper than it looks on TV.

Always has and always will be 60kms/hr, its a listed tourist drive. And Plod is frequently there so its not worth trying to be Lowndes.

Yeah Still 60km As They All Say , And Yeah The Cops Are There All The Time .not Allways In Police Cars . But The Grade Going Into The Dipper Is 25-1 .the Pics Dont Really Show This But If You Have A Look At The Shot Of Bathurst(cloud) Shows How High It Is At The Top

At 60Km/h you can still have fun. Try doing it through the dipper. Coming out of Forest Elbow it's very hard to keep under 60 down Conrod.

Just remember that the track is a TWO way road when you go around.
