This exciting partnership brings together two of Australia’s most passionate communities: football fans and car enthusiasts.
As part of this partnership, Summernats will enjoy naming rights of the match, co-branding on all match day ticketing, in-stadium announcements, two minutes of full stadium LED, precinct and in-stadium activation including data capture, and the opportunity to deliver the match ball and participate in the coin toss. Each exhibiting car will also be honoured with four tickets to the Ambassadors Lounge, giving owners a premium match day experience.
Summernats will be activating in the precinct with ten of their most spectacular cars on display, including three standouts set to capture the imagination of fans.
Dom Luci, 38, from Menangle, NSW, will bring his 1975 Holden HJ Kingswood, LITMUP, a striking orange car with a personalised plate. A veteran burnout competitor, Dom has earned a reputation for crowd-stopping performances, including a Pro Burnout Series qualifier at Street Machine Summernats 38. LITMUP carries deep personal significance, having been gifted to Dom by his late father-in-law after being found abandoned, and rebuilt with help from family and friends. With his children often trackside, Dom and LITMUP represent burnout culture driven as much by heart as by performance.

Mitchel Hawkins, 33, from Wilton, NSW, will showcase his 1994 Holden VR Commodore, CAVIAR, finished in a distinctive salmon pink. Known for challenging convention, Mitchel transformed a long-forgotten garage find into a bold, motorsport-inspired statement car that gained widespread attention at Meguiar’s MotorEx and landed on the front cover of Street Machine magazine. CAVIAR exemplifies creativity combined with performance, blending family practicality with show-stopping design, cementing Mitchel as one of the most talked-about entrants in the scene.
Jack Mill, 24, from Parkes, NSW, will present SWIFTY, a radically reworked 2007 Suzuki Swift. Once a modest four-cylinder hatchback, SWIFTY now boasts V8 power and vibrant yellow paint, earning Jack the Hare & Forbes Machineryhouse Young Street Machine of the Year 2025. Originally intended as a low-budget build for fun, the car has evolved into a fully engineered show-and-skid vehicle. Jack and his partner Lara travel Australia competing at events, using SWIFTY to inspire young people and promote conversations around men’s mental health, making the car a symbol of creativity, purpose, and passion in the modern street machine scene.
Members and fans will also enjoy a half-time light and flame show, adding extra spectacle to the electric New Year’s Day fixture.
By bringing together two iconic Australian passions, football and car culture, this partnership promises an unforgettable match day experience for supporters and enthusiasts alike.
