The streets of Bathurst are set to come alive later this morning with the annual transporter parade ahead of the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000.

All of your favourite Supercars transporters will make the trip up William Street to Mount Panorama Circuit and you can also catch a glimpse of some of the superstar transporter drivers who have featured on our site.

With thousands of fans expected to line the streets, the transporters will start rolling from 11.30am at the intersection of Durham Street and Bentinck Street before turning left into William Street.

It’s all part of B-Rock Super Wednesday which officially opens one of the biggest race weeks in Australia. There is also a driver parade and autograph signing session later in the afternoon.

If you are lucky enough to be in Bathurst for the transporter parade, please make sure you send us a couple of photos as @MetalGrate did earlier this week.

It doesn’t get any better than a transporter convoy through downtown Bathurst. Let's hope that the weather holds out!
