What a weekend! Nothing beats waking up to the sound of Supercars warming up, stepping right out of our campervan with a hot coffee in hand and heading straight to the fence.

The atmosphere at the Mount Panorama campgrounds was electric. Having our own motorhome setup gave us the ultimate base camp—comfort, hot food, and warm refuge when the mountain weather dropped at night.

We had four guys in a 6-berth RV from DriveNow and there was plenty of room for all our gear, food, and camping chairs. Will definitely be making this an annual tradition.

Taking a motorhome to McPhillamy Park on the Top of the Mountain was the best decision we ever made. Proper beds, a hot shower, and a cold fridge full of drinks while the V8s roared past!
