The three-hour event saw entrants come from as far as Kyabram, Ballarat, Warnambool, Ouyen and Mount Gambier support the event, with around 100 cars and bikes on display.

Organiser Simon Clark said despite the miserable weather it was a great day.

"I was blown away by the support we received," he said.

"It was outstanding to see so many getting behind WACK and their cause."

Mr Clark said it was the third time weather hadn't been too friendly, but they still managed to attract a good crowd.

"It just shows how strong the car and bike community is and it's a great social catch-up," he said.

"Thanks to Horsham Rotary for cooking up a barbecue breakfast and to Allison from Horsham Plaza."
