Where is the best place to watch the Finke Desert race from!

G'day Hairy ,was thinking about going next year as well,we are from Adelaide ,we like to camp on our own in a good spot to see all ,don't like crowds ,like the fast sections ,staying all week end ,were would you recommend .cheers GREENDOG

Gday Greendog,
Between Alice and Deep well (the first 65km) is the busiest area along the track. Its full of piss heads and party animals so generaly a good place to avoid. It does thin out as you get closer to Deep Well but still pretty populated.
Between Deep well and Rodinga is the road section. Its very fast and very dusty, so not an ideal place in my eyes either.
Alice creek has a few corners and a good camping spot but you would want to get in early to get a spot and even then you might be pulling up in someone's regular camp and get surrounded.
Anywhere South of Bundooma your starting to get into the sand country with less people less dust and more camping spots with a good view of the track.
Race camp at Finke is very crowded and noisy and there is no camping between there and the river.
A good spot is a couple of Km's North of the Finke River in the sand hills and even further North in the scrub.
My goggle earth isn't working at the moment , but if I can get it going Ill try and give you some cords of the sand hills.

Cheers

Thanks Hairy ,that would be great ,cheers for the info.
