National Motor Racing Museum

Situated at Murray's Corner at the foot of the world-famous Mount Panorama Circuit, the National Motor Racing Museum stands as Australia's ultimate shrine to motorsport history. Celebrating the passion, speed, and engineering heritage of Australian motor racing, this iconic facility displays over 100 historic vehicles spanning touring cars, open-wheelers, rally, speedway, and classic motorcycles from the 1920s to modern Supercars.
Visitors are greeted at the entrance by the iconic bronze sculpture of Australian racing legend Peter Brock. Inside, dynamic rotating exhibitions showcase winning vehicles, rare driver trophies, helmet collections, historic leathers, and thousands of pieces of authentic racing memorabilia. A highlight of the experience is the high-octane Immersive Room, where surround sound and multi-screen visuals replicate the thrilling sensory intensity of taking a lap around Mount Panorama at full race speed. Whether you are a hardcore Bathurst enthusiast, a historic automobile collector, or a family seeking an memorable pit stop on a regional road trip, the museum provides an unforgettable window into Australian sporting culture.
