Dean, Your problem is that you have both the
Simpson Desert and
Lake Eyre in your path.
Other than going across the
Simpson Desert track via
Birdsville, the Plenty/Donohue Highway starting from just north of
Alice Springs and via
Boulia is the most direct route. The road is unsealed but formed and with loose stones but OK for a 4WD driven to conditions. It would be rather rough on a 2WD
sedan.
Otherwise you would need to go South to
Lyndhurst and then up to
Innamincka before heading West to
Brisbane. Again, some unsealed roads but of good condition.
To stay on sealed bitumen roads you would need to go South to
Port Augusta then head through
Broken Hill and
Cobar to
Brisbane. A long route.
