[[File:Mount Panorama street racing circuit in Australia.svg|thumb|250px|Layout of the [[Mount Panorama Circuit]]]]

The '''2002 Bathurst 24 Hour''' was an endurance motor race staged at the [[Mount Panorama Circuit]] just outside [[Bathurst, New South Wales|Bathurst]] in [[New South Wales]], [[Australia]]. The race, which was the first [[Bathurst 24 Hour|24-hour event]] to be held at Mount Panorama, started at 4:00pm on 16 November and finished at 4:00pm on 17 November. It was the first 24 Hour race to be held in Australia since the [[1954 Mount Druitt 24 Hours Road Race]].

The race was open to several classes of GT and other production based cars and was intended as a showcase for the racing categories promoted by [[Australian GT Production Car Championship|PROCAR]], which included [[Australian Nations Cup Championship|Nations Cup]], GT Performance and [[Australian GT Production Car Championship|GT Production]]. While there was much speculation about the highly popular [[V8 Utes|V8 Brute Utes]] class also being eligible there was resistance to the idea and they ran short sprint races as a support category. Ten classes were announced, but only five classes attracted entries.

The race was won by [[Garth Tander]], [[Steven Richards]], [[Nathan Pretty]] and [[Cameron McConville]] driving a [[Holden Monaro]].

==Group structure==
The race was open to entries in ten Groups.<ref name=Stats>[https://web.archive.org/web/20060821130631/http://www.procar.com.au/StatsBathurst24hr.pdf Bathurst 24 Hour Race, www.procar.com.au, as archived at web.archive.org]</ref>

<small>* During the first qualifying session, the #999 PHR Scuderia [[Porsche 911 GT3|Porsche 996 GT3-RS]] driven by [[Jim Richards (racing driver)|Jim Richards]] set a time of 2:20.4364 which would have placed the car 4th on the grid. However, later during that same qualifying session, Peter Fitzgerald crashed on the top of the mountain which damaged the car beyond immediate repair. PHR were then forced to substitute team owner Maher Algadrie's [[Porsche 911 GT3|Porsche 996 GT3 Cup]] car in the race. Due to having to substitute cars, the original lap time did not count and the GT3 Cup car eventually qualified in 14th place.</small>
