The Oodnadatta Track is the most interesting of all the iconic Australian tracks. Do some research and buy a book or two on its history before you go, take it quietly and it will be a great experience.
Road condition varies greatly depending on the recent traffic and the timing of the grader, but unless it is wet it will be no problem, but maybe quite slow.

AS already said depending on there grader it can be as smooth as silk or rattle your teeth out, but no serious challenges. watch out for stray rocks on the road I smashed a rim due being over confident and traveling to fast.

Bru, if you prepare well, in all aspects of Out Back remote region travel, and drive to suit the road and terrain, not rushing and be very vigilant re your rig and your health and talk, talk, talk (rather listen and consider, listen and consider, listen and consider) to and with those you meet along the way I reckon you will have one of the greatest experiences ever in Australia's Great Out Back.
Cheers

Just been there, its as Peter says, worst part is coming into William Creek. We traveled via Cooper Pedy, but comments from others say the track is good.

Section SE of Oodnadatta VERY corrugated 20-30km is bloody  terrible. Others told us worst on the track - I believe them.

Came off a station so not many options for us other than 250km detour backwards across rough tracks. Station tracks were better than Govt roads.

On worst section camber of road bounced us off to left, needed 4wd (already selected) to keep us on track <20kph for ages. Some damage to van internally (m/wave, pantry goods, solar controller pulled off wall, fire ext v loose) so after 12 years we met our match so to speak.

So based on what we have been told at William Creek today better to Maree.

DON'T RECOMMEND  William Creek to Oodnadatta for vans at all. Hasn't been graded since rain in March and you can still see where others have travelled and left ruts, for us to venture in and out of.  Speed very limited obviously.

Just for yr info.

Between William Creek and Oodnadatta, travelling south. The last pic is 5km north of William Creek.

Bru,
It's best not to travel those roads after Spring - it's uncomfortable & adds extra stresses to your car & van.

DRIVE TO CONDITIONS, have good tyres, vary your tyre pressure according to the road. We did most "Tracks" in our Jayco Eagle Outback camper & I recall dropping the pressure by around 4psi.
