526 Conrod Straight, the ticket box and concession building appear to have both been demolished between 2012 and 2014.

The drive-in site might be visible during the Bathurst 1000 motor racing event in October?

The ramps are still there.

Looks like tne fences, gates, lights, and entrance/exit roads(and maybe the ramps too?) are still there?

Conrod Straight is part of the Mount Panorama Racecourse. I think it is 1.9km long?
