We kick off Crank It Up in the best possible style to with a cruise from Batemans Bay to Moruya, to show of these amazing machines and let the community be part of this event.
We follow the ‘Betta’ truck from under the bridge in Clyde St Batemans Bay from 11am, with a drive through town, along the coast, winding along the river to Moruya before stopping at the Waterfont Hotel for a feed and to catch up with mates.
Chill out for a couple of hours and head back to accomodation ready for the evening bands at the Soldiers Club.
There is not cost for the car cruise, but please register so we know numbers.
Crank It Up will be a weekend of cruising and showing off those amazing classic cars, bikes, customs and rods. Whether you are a driver, a show’er or just someone who loves real automotive art, the Crank It Up event on 17,18 & 19 November is the place to be, to see those amazing machines … the pride and joy of those men and women who built them.
Saturday 18th & Sunday 19th – Tyre Torque Show n Shine …Yes we are closing the main street of Batemans Bay for 2 days to show off your amazing cars, bikes, customs and rods. Park up at the Crank It Up event site, catchup with old friends, enjoy the music and drinks, and let the rest of the coast appreciate your vehicle.
The Show n Shine Zones
Zone A – Vintage, Historic, Original – This section has the unmolested classic cars that everyone loves and generally in original condition or resto’d to original. Generally pre ’55 cars in this zone.
Zone B – Rock ‘n Roll era – This section has the mid ’50s cars through to mid 60’s. This zone is positioned near our main stage to show off the cars of the retro rock n roll era. Think big tail fins, chrome, cool cars. Caddy’s, Thunderbirds, Bel-Airs etc
Zone C – Lil Niks HotRot Alley – Proudly supported by Lil Niks Mechanical in Batemans Bay, this zone is right in the heart of the event and has its own special feel. From hotrod T-buckets of the 30s, to dropped and dragging Mercury’s of the 50s and even Ratted trucks and cars.
Zone D – Classics, Muscle, American, Customs- Set near Stage 2 down under the bridge area, this zone was a huge hit last year and is the car lovers paradise with cars of all types with something for everyone to get into. Great vibe here and this is the zone where you’ll see everything from bug american muscle to morris minors to exquisite airbrushed cars. A bit of everything.
Zone E – Overflow- This zone is just past zone D and will likely have a few club who want to bring cars together and will be overflow when other sections fill up and we run out of space.
Bump-in Times Bump in for event cars will be from 8am on Saturday and Sunday. Bump out will be from 3pm on Saturday and 2pm on Sunday. Follow Directions of volunteers at all times.

The Suede Cats
An area dedicated to the hotrods of the 30’s -50’s era. These cool cars are loud, chromed, and just plain cool. They might be T Buckets, Street rods, Chopped roadster or Rat rods.. the headturners are in the Hotrod Alley.
This area is near the main stage and is focussed on those oh-so cool cars of the rock n roll era of the 50’s to early 60’s.
Think Chevy Bel Aire, Cadillac Coupe De Ville, Ford Thunderbirds, Pontiac Star Chief or Buick Roadmaster. The sort of cars that Elvis would’ve driven or Chuck Berry might cruise down Hollywood Boulevard.
These cars have shape, chrome, wings and whitewalls. Glamour and style to boot.
Early model vehicles which have been restored or remain in original condition. These cars bring back memories of an elegant era and are the true meaning of historic vehicles as they tell their stories of yesteryear.
This is a cool zone to hangout with all sorts of chrome bumper cars, classic bikes, old trucks, American muscle and those amazing customs which just draw the crowds.
Hang out with mates, under the bridge where we have the second stage playing music all weekend, car memorabilia displays, food and a dance floor.
This was the favourite of many visitors at last years Crank It Up Show n Shine.
