CELEBRATING 50 YEARS SINCE THE INAUGURAL STREET MACHINE NATIONALS
MANY consider the first Street Machine Nationals in Griffith over the 1975 Easter long weekend to be the birth of street machining here in Australia.
With 2025 marking the 50th anniversary of this formative event, the organisers of Griffith's Biggest Lap charity event have invited a select group of legendary street machines and notable personalities to headline this year's Lap on the weekend of 4-5 October.
This story is from the October 2025 edition of Street Machine Australia.
