The rest of the day was action packed, thanks to Skid Row, the Last Chance Wildcard Shootout and cruising aplenty.

After dark, it was time for the annual Milwaukee Street Machine of the Year VIP party, where we handed over the iconic trophy to this year's winner, Chad Ribbons. Chad was running on fumes, have completed a respray of his HD ute only hours before the party started.

We also hosted the induction of the latest Laurie Starling Scholarship award winner, Corey Scragg from Deluxe Rod Shop. Corey has worked on two cars that you can check out in the elite hall this weekend - a rad FX Holden that is set to be unveiled tonight and Brian Imlach's stunning '34 Chev.
