Event organiser Brendon Clarke said about 90 people participated in the second annual Charity Ride & Hot Rod Cruise on Friday, with all proceeds going to Ronald McDonald House Tamworth.
"We had a total of $3980.90 raised," he told the Leader.
"Now I'm just on my way to the bank to transfer it to Ronald McDonald House, to support local sick kids."
Mr Clarke thanked everyone who came out and supported the cause, and all the businesses who donated items for the monster raffle fundraiser that night at Nemingha Tavern.

He also gave a special shout out to Santa, who came along for the ride.
"There were lots of kids out that were happy to see Santa throwing out bags of lollies," he said.
"We stuck Santa in the side car so he sweated it out and threw out ten kilos of lollies plus a couple of hundred lollipops combined.
"The raffles were really successful and everyone was happy."
