What an event! Street Machine Summernats 34 wrapped up yesterday against a backdrop of perfect summer weather.

With the afterglow from the Supercruise, Fringe Festival and some old-school mayhem on the cruise route on Saturday night still flowing through everyone's veins, entrants, punters and officials all had mile-wide smiles.
