CRAKK 2024

26, 27, 28 Jan 2024

Sorry for the delay.

CRAKK 2024 was a great success according to all the feedback! With a record number of entries, vehicles and people.
It is pleasing to see a consistent continuation of the family event that CRAKK has become known for, with all the old favourites and new activities each year.

This year saw some great tech sessions, chop top with Lucky’s Speed Shop, lots of kids activities with the new Kidzone, and lots of kroozin in the park. The red, white and blue theme was embraced all weekend, the ladies had some fun with cocktails, high tea and ‘Bra-pong’, the skid pan and choose a cruise took entrants out and about, and over 200 vehicles squeezed into Queanbeyan Park for the show’n’shine.

With the increased numbers, we filled the Capital Country Holiday Park within days of entries opening, but luckily have overflow accommodation close by. We had entrants from SA, QLD, NSW, ACT and VIC, so we hope you all had a great time.
Our principal media sponsor this year, Paul Beck from Killer Rides pumped out a great story with lots of pics within a week of the event, so if you didn’t see that, then check it out now! He said everything that I was going to say! Thanks Paul.
