Repco has started the countdown to Supercars fans' annual pilgrimage to Mount Panorama.

The Supercars Championship naming rights sponsor has launched its ‘Bringin’ the Bathurst’ campaign for 2022.

Just 34 days out from the event, Repco released a 30-second promotional clip to its social media accounts.

This year's event will be held across October 6-9. Tickets can be purchased here. 

The event will be the 65th edition of the Great Race, and 62nd at Mount Panorama.

The Repco video features several real-life Bathurst 1000 campers, who have made the annual trip to Mount Panorama for decades.

Thousands of fans have already renewed their camping and grandstand spaces for October's round. Tickets on sale now. 

Shell V-Power Racing Team driver Will Davison also features in the video aboard his #17 DJR Mustang.

The video demonstrates how fans will be bringing the spirit of the mountain to everything they do.

It includes a young girl doing burnouts in her ride-on Mustang, with another fan sharing their purpose-built Holden V8-engine-powered barbecue.

Repco fan favourite Garry Reid also features in the clip, visiting fans across Australia to show how they are 'Bringin' The Bathurst'.
