The name Surfer's Paradise and racing in Australia are well linked but
long before CART and V8s did battle on the streets there was action on
this now defunct permanent circuit. The track featured a Dunlop Bridge
with a fast right hand turn underneath it that was one of the fast
corners in Aussie motorsport until the Caltex Chase was built at
Bathurst in 1987.

This track operated from 1966 through 1987. The track hosted the ATCC,
the Tasman Series, the Rothmans 12 Hour endurance race, and the 1975
Australian Grand Prix during its years of operation. After it closed it
then sat abandoned for 15 years before it was demolished in 2003 to make
room for a housing complex.

(At the time of this posting this track's four ATCC races do not appear
to be counting toward its total on the track page. The races in question
appear to be counting toward the Adelaide Grand Prix circuit's one instead)
