Mike Cantwell Gnoo Blas Motor Racing Circuit 1953 v1.0 for rFactor By Neil Faichney July 2013 NOT FOR COMMERCIAL USE WITHOUT PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT DO NOT USE TEXTURES FROM THIS WORK WITHOUT PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT SEE TERMS AND CONDITIONS BELOW This is a virtual historic reconstruction of the Gnoo Blas race track as it was in 1953. The project was organised by Rod Monk of Troyton Racing Simulators and has been funded by Tourism NSW as a promotion for the city of Orange (Central Western NSW, Australia). The Gnoo Blas Motor Racing Circuit was a temporary race track located in the rural city of Orange in NSW and ran car and bike races from 1953 to 1961. It was the birth place of the Australian Touring Car Championship (1960) which has now evolved into the Australian V8Supercar Championship. It was also the place where Sir Jack Brabham began his road racing career. Orange is only 40 minutes’ drive down the road from Bathurst and it was this proximity that arguably led to its eventual closure. The public roads that it was run on still exist today with very little change. Anyone can go there and drive around the original circuit layout. If you are visiting the Bathurst/Orange area make sure you visit the old Gnoo Blas track and experience Australian motorsport history.
