during the 1974 australian touring car championship the torana gtr xu-1 was gradually superseded by the wider bodied sl/r 5000. the holden bathurst contingent for this year included 13 sl/r 5000s, 7 xu-1s and one hq monaro gts. ford was represented in the outright category by three falcon hardtop headed by moffat's brut 33 xb falcon hardtop gt. he was supported by john goss and kevin bartlett in an xa hardtop and murray carter in another xb falcon hardtop. the v8 toranas ran away at the start of the 1974 race and holden victory seemed assured. by lap 11 brock had already lapped 7 of the outright class d cars. on lap 12 moffat pitted and lost several laps as a new coil was fitted. by lap 20 the hdt toranas of brock and bond were over a minute in front of goss in the only competitive falcon. by lap 85 the two hdt toranas were four laps clear of the field. around the 90 lap mark rain started to fall at the top of the mountain. the hdt toranas soon pitted for wet weather tyres after which the bond torana started smoking from an oil leak. the car was eventually black flagged. while the mechanics were trying to fix the problem brock pitted with a broken piston caused by a failed oil pump. bond returned to the track but lost more time with a spin. despite determined driving from jim richards and wayne negus, the goss/bartlett car was able to gain a slight lead as the torana challenge faded amidst oil smoke and torrential rain. bartlett completed the 163 laps in first place. the only other car on the same lap was the forbes/negus sl/r 5000. the smaller classes were won by a morris cooper s, an alfa gtv and a mazda rx3. car number 34, a lone morris marina finished 6th in class c having completed 125 laps.

the circuit has been unused since late 2013 and has fallen into disuse. motocross activities ended due to noise concerns and, in the interests of improving relations with the local community, the new owners of the circuit have no plans to recommence motocross.
