It’s April 1988, somewhere near Uluru, and the starter gun fires
off one of the strangest, most audacious events to mark
Australia's bicentennial year, the Great Australian Camel Race.
People came from all around the world to take part in a feat
which spanned over 3000km, as camels and humans endured scorching
heat, flooding rains and serious sickness that almost sent
the race belly-up.
