Promoter Mandy Searle announced at Heartland Raceway tonight that this will be the final season of the All Stars 360 Sprintcar Series.
The Series, which began in 2007 has travelled and presented shows in Australia’s South Eastern Region continuously since that time, commencing with a vision that started at Baccus Marsh Speedway and grew into the series as we know it today and which will conclude at Mildura Speedway this Easter.
The All Star Challenge, held in January at Simpson Speedway is the Series major event of the year, paying $15,000 to win making it the richest 360 Sprintcar event in Australia. This year saw 42 competitors, 5 American drivers including World of Outlaws Carson Macedo, Sheldon Haudenschild and Justin Peck take part in the event. Series regulars also got to compete with some of Australia’s leading Sprintcar drivers.
Mandy thanked all the attending teams for their support and commitment and was very proud that 6 teams were still racing with the series since its beginning in 2007.
She also thanked the series sponsors, without whom, the Series could not have achieved its goals. In particular, the support of Andrew Elder from Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers as the principal sponsor of the Series for 14 years and that of the All Star Challenge and the significant support of Max Dumesny Motorsport & Hoosier Tire Australia. She also recognised all the loyal contingency sponsors which have been with the series over the years, allowing the drivers to take home something extra regardless of whether they had a win or in some cases a bad night.
Mandy pointed out the series also would not have been possible without all of officials in her team over the years who have given up their spare time to help run each race night.
“Running a travelling series like this for 17 Seasons takes a lot of effort. I would have liked to have achieved a milestone 20 seasons with the series, but I guess none of us are getting any younger and I find myself not being able to give 100% anymore so have made the hard decision to end the series whilst it is still at this level.
Incredibly we have tracks already asking about increasing their number of rounds next year and tracks other than our series regulars asking about securing rounds. After the success of the Challenge, returning to Warrnambool the night after and having a healthy car count all season, its very satisfying to know that what started as a dream all those years ago has grown to become what it is today.
I have so many more people to thank for their support, which I will do individually over the course of the next few weeks. With Mildura at Easter, we have our series final night on Good Friday plus the 360 Sprintcars Easter Nationals on Sunday to look forward to so if you are in the area, please come up and say hello and enjoy a great weekend’s racing as we close the chapter on the All Stars and celebrate everything we have achieved for 360 racing in the last 17 years”.

Long term All Star Chris Solomon finally gets to lock is name into the record books as he celebrates his 100th Series round this Saturday night at Heartland Raceway.
Chris will be only the 3rd driver to hit this prestigious record. Solomon is renowned for his No 83 but this season he is driving for the Kristine & Brad Foster owned V11 so will be seen in a different mount this weekend.
“What a huge achievement, we are all so proud and pleased for him. All Star Legends Locky & Paul were the first two to reach the 100 milestone; this is our 139th show so that means that Chrissy has only missed 39 races with us over the 17 seasons – that a lot of commitment right there.” Mandy Searle tells us.
Congratulations Chris Solomon

In front of a packed house at Heytesbury Stockfeeds Simpson Speedway USA99 Carson Macedo became the 14th winner of the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Challenge. The crowd had come with high expectations and weren’t disappointed.
Macedo and Charge lined up on the front row, Haud & Hickman behind. Going 3 wide into T1 Macedo came out in front. Haudenschild was the first car to bring the yellows on after only 4 laps after hitting the wall and knocking out his read end. Local track hero John Vogels went for a wild ride along the back straight, Vogels walked away but the car had too much damage and his night was done.
A couple of laps later young American gasser Kalib Henry also bought on the reds in T3 ending his night. Hickman, Charge, Hallett, McHugh & Veal were fighting for track positions while Ely, Milburn, Peck, Randall & Chris Solomon were also all putting on a show for the crowd. At the chequers it was Macedo, Hickman, Hallett, Charge and McHugh rounded out the top 5.
SA14 Brendan Quinn who went into the night leading the Championship points had a horror night flipping twice. Quinn was unhurt but the chassis was not as lucky. Originally starting in P8 of the C Main D26 Todd Moule ran the alphabet to finish 12th in the A which naturally won him the Transport Equipment Hire Hard Charger for the night.
“It was an awesome night overall for us, the weather was perfect, we had a great car count, as always with this show they got to watch some nail biting racing. At these big shows everyone has highs and lows, they all have their own stories to tell, and we have to thank every single team that competed with us. The flies were back in force, and we got to share them with our overseas visitors.” Searle says.

With an influx of drivers for the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Challenge credit must be given to All Star drivers for making this event as strong as it is today. Without the 360 All Star drivers supporting the event over the years it would not have grown into the show that it is today, they are the true stars of the show.
This is also a series round and every one of them will want to have the best possible results to secure more points. Defending Series Champ and Aust #1 Mark Caruso is certainly in with a show, SA14 Brendan Quinn is currently leading the series and has won the show before. V7 Paul Solomon, V11 Chris Solomon, V40 Rusty Hickman, V10 Steve Loader, young guns D26 Todd Moule & SA3 Ben Morris, new dad VA2 BJ Harris, V64 Kane Newcombe, V4 Farmer Phil Lock, VA9 Jamie Hennessy, NS22 Jarreth Argus, NSW46 Stacey Galliford, V47 Jeremy Kupsch, VA75 Donnaz, VA91 Dan Scott, SA11 Scotty Enderl just to name of few of the regular All Stars, all turning up and giving 100% show after show.
“Its fantastic to have all the names race with us but let’s face it our guys are the backbone of the Series and without them we couldn’t put on a show. We wish all our guys good luck.” Searle says.
So, remember the date for the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Challenge - January 13th Heytesbury Stockfeeds Simpson Speedway.

4 drivers have already taken the accolades and the money in the past for the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Challenge and are lining up again to try and become two time winners.
Sure, the temptation of $15K has something to do with it but also the prestige of winning the biggest 360 race in Australia is also on their minds. John Vogels, Brendan Quinn, Kaleb Henry & Sheldon Haudenschild are all nominated. Vogels won back in 2016, Henry - 2020, Quinn - 2022 and Haud last year.
“Sheldon will want to make it back to back after a strong opening to his Aust tour last season. Night one in Australia and he collected $15K. Everyone will remember the fairy tale story when young relatively unknown gasser Kalib Henry drove for Team Green, they drove down from a washout in NSW, had an engine bought over from SA and bolted it in the car on the actual afternoon of the race. They took home the $10K it was at the time and the team celebrated in Green fashion for days. Quinny was another to make an unscheduled trip from Sydney after a washout up there and it was worth the effort for him for him also with a $15K pay day.
Those that were there remember it was a nail biting race, this seems to be traditional for this show as we always have one of the most exciting if not the most exciting race of the season. Vogels is the local track favourite at Simpson and the crowd will get behind him. Simpson dials up a brilliant race track which allows this. We know that in a few days it will be exactly the same. Let’s see if any of these 4 drivers can double up.” Promotor Searle tells us.
So, remember the date for the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Challenge - January 13th Heytesbury Stockfeeds Simpson Speedway.

Sacramento’s 23 year old Kalib Henry is back in Australia driving for Jimmy Matchett in the USA88. Last time Henry was here he won the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Challenge. “He was only 20 years old then and driving for Perritt Family Racing with Trevor Green as Crew Chief.
This year he has Trev mentoring him and back on the spanners, so we know that he is in good hands. The team gelled together well and after an unscheduled trip from a washout in Sydney, a quick engine change after an engine was express freighted from SA, the took out the win and the $. It was a fairytale story for them.” Searle says.
Henry joins the impressive field of top 360 competitors as the car count continues to grow.

“Pinch me and see if I am awake. I’m not sure it’s real but I cannot stop smiling anyway. We have had some incredible names run with us in the past at our $15K to win show, and with Haudenschild winning last year but this year is next level. We were excited enough to have Sheldon return to defend his title, then Justin Pecks name was next to be added in the mix and then I got a call from Dyson Motorsport asking if they could run with us, I’ve just said Hell Yeh!” a very excited Mandy Searle tells us.
“That’s 3 top name WOO drivers. Then to add to this another couple of young hard chargers, Riley Goodno & Chase Randall bringing the Yankee tally to 5. I watch all these guys race in the States, and they always put on a show and to have them at our 360 show is just mind blowing.”

With the disappointment of Tuesdays washout out at Premier Speedway we are excited to announce that the date has been rescheduled to Sunday 14th January.
“While we were talking with the board on Tuesday I asked if maybe we could reschedule this show and to my delight, they came back to us with this suggestion only 24 hours ago. It means that we go back to back after our $15K to win All Star Challenge but teams are in the area, we think it will work well. All our teams have been hanging to get back to the Bool and this should replace Tuesday’s disappointment, our followers also can get 2 nights of top class racing.” an elated Searle told us.
Not only is the date locked in but thanks to Premier Speedway Club first place prizemoney has been increased to $4000 to win with an added $2000 to be spread amongst the field.
A huge thanks must go to JSR, Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers, Megan Evans & Go Traffic for their support of this newly scheduled event.

Young hard charging Texan Chase Randall arrived in Australia before Christmas and after a quick trip up to Toowoomba for the Red Hot Summer Shootout, again this year as part of his Aussie tour the team are slotting a 360 in and throwing their hat in the ring for the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Challenge $15K to win. Last year Randall finished 2nd and will want to go one better this year and take home the $15K.
This quietly spoken 19 year old racer comes to Australia after running another strong season in the States with 100 plus shows under his belt. This kid has been racing since the age of 5 and has collected many awards along to way, winning the Knoxville 360 Rookie of the Year and the Knoxville 360 Hard Charger. Concentrating on 410s last season they also had strong results competing against the best in the world with the WOO tour.
Randall is again driving the EzPrint USA 9 “Team owners are giving it 110% and deserve every credit for bringing this young hard charger back to Australia for the 2nd year in a row. Watching him at several shows I and I’ve seen him run the little bull ring at Simpson before and he is guaranteed to put on a show for the crowd.” Promoter Searle says.
So, remember the date for the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Challenge - January 13th Heytesbury Stockfeeds Simpson Speedway.

As the date gets closer the numbers keep growing for the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Series return to Premier Speedway on 2nd January.
Already the car count stands at a solid 30 plus cars with a few more names expected as it gets closer to the date and teams see how they have survived the 410 Speedweek being held in both SA and Victoria. This will be Round 3 of the Series and for the All Star regulars it will be a chance for them to lock in more valuable points for the $10K to win End of Season Championship.
V11 Chris Solomon took out RD 1 and SA14 Brendan Quinn winning the Col Beasley Classic. V40 Rusty Hickman has been on the podium 2 out of 2 times and will be looking to make it they’re 3rd time.

V65 Kane Newcombe, V7 Paul Solomon, SA96 Brendan Guerin, D21 Zac Farrer, D26 Todd Moule, VA75 Donnaz Donnegan and all the All Stars getting the chance to run at Premier Speedway with the series as it returns to the Bool.
USA9 Chase Randall is just one of the visiting American drivers swapping the teams 410 for a 360 for the night. It will be interesting to see who else from the states does the same and takes the opportunity to use this night as a shakedown for the $15K to win show in 2 weeks time.

From Knoxville, USA young 20year old gasser Riley Goodno has teamed up with David Challons Camden Signage & Building Services V45 over the Christmas period and whilst their schedule is predominately 410 races, they will be swapping engines have locked in the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Challenge $15K to win. Goodno will take the Yankee tally for this show to 3.
People that follow the USA race season will already know his name and have seen his impressive results in the #22 J&J over the past few seasons. Riley has been racing everything on wheels since the age of five. You can still see him driving anything from 410's to 360's to micros but this season his focus was on 410s at Knoxville, but he is certainly used to 360 racing having overall top 10 results for several seasons now.
“The talent of this young man stands out and we are absolutely rapt to have him come and race with us for our biggest show of the season. The names for this show just keeping rolling in and Riley is another we can add to our growing list of Americans that come and run with us.” an excited Promoter Mandy Searle tells us.

SA14 Brendan Quinn won his first Flocon Col Beasley Classic at Timmis Speedway Saturday night for RD 2 of the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Series. SA98 Chad Ely came home in 2nd, V40 Rusty Hickman 3rd, V7 Paul Solomon 4th and Keke Falland rounded out the top 5. With windy conditions all day rain rolled in after the Pole Shoot Out was completed but fortunately not enough to cancel the remainder of the night.
The hard working track prep team managed to get the track back so racing could continue. “We cut the laps to 25, dropped the 4 wide hoping that we could get a result and we did. It was fast, and the guys were lapping around the high 11 and low 12 second mark, but it ended up being a great race. Our guys drove to the conditions, and we must thank all of them and the crews that worked so well to make this happen.” Searle told us at the end of the night.
Lap 1 saw V95 Ryan Davis, V11 Chris Solomon, VA9 Jamie Hennessy and VA91 Dan Scott bring on the yellows ending the night for both Davis & Hennessy. Solomon and Scott managed to restart. From around half race distance all eyes were on the charging Paul Solomon who started in P13 and after he found the high line finishing a strong 4th place. Falland, Walker, Newcombe, Loader who had come from the B Main & Chris Solomon all having their own battles for mid pack placings.
Having a terrible night SA96 Brendan Guerin rolled in his second heat. The team battled hard and rebuilt for the B only to have his 2nd roll and earning him the HCC Maxie’s Keep on Trying Award.
“We cannot say enough about how much work the Club at Timmis have completed at the venue. The new lights were brilliant, and it is a credit to them all. They continue to upgrade every time we go there, it really is a pleasure to race there.” Says Searle.
Heat race wins went to Rusty Hickman, Mark Caruso, Brendan Quinn, Chad Ely, Ryan Davis, Jamie Hennessy.
A Main results: - 1st SA14 Brendan Quinn, 2nd S98 Chad Ely, 3rd V40 Rusty Hickman, 4th V7 Paul Solomon, 5th Keke Falland, , 6th Lisa Walker, 7th V65 Kane Newcombe, 8th V10 Steve Loader, 9th V11 Chris Solomon, 10th D21 Zac Farrer, 11th S8 Terry Pitt, 12th V4 Phil Lock, 13th N46 Stacey Galliford, 14th VA2 Boyd Harris - DNF, 15th A1 Mark Caruso -DNF, 16th V47 Jeremy Kupsch -DNF, 17th VA91 Dan Scott -DNF, 18th D26 Todd Moule – DNF, 19th VA9 – Jamie Hennessy -DNF, 20th V95 Ryan Davis - DNF

Flocon Engineering continues their support of the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Series by bringing you the Col Beasley Classic. “Col used to race with us back in the day. Unfortunately we didn’t get to run the show last season so we are excited to bring it back.

“We can’t thank Flocon enough for the support over the last few years. We have held the Flocon King of the River, the Mildura Masters & the Tri State Challenge in the past but these themes have altered with time but Flocon have always worked with us so again we have rebranded and increased the dollars on offer with a total payout of $13K for the feature. It’s pretty exciting news for our drivers” an excited Searle tells us.
Previous winners include V40 Rusty Hickman winning the show the last 2 times; his family were friends with Col for many years with Dad Darren racing against him. A1 Mark Caruso & SA44 Dan Evans also claiming victory in the Beasley Classic.

In what can only be described as a nail biting finish the newly formed V11 Foster/Solomon team driver Chris Solomon took out bragging rights for Rd 1 of the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Series on Saturday night at Blue Ribbon Raceway. V40 Rusty Hickman was on Solomon’s tail for lap after lap and the pair did trade positions a few times.
Hickman made one last ditch effort to pass as the chequers came out but as the pair crossed the line almost together Solomon came out slightly in front. With a solid drive SA14 Brendan Quinn came home in 3rd, SA96 Brendan Guerin 4th and V68 Brett Milburn rounded out the top 5.
Solomon brothers Paul & Chris lined up in the front row of the A with Davis & Hickman behind them. Greens dropped but the first lap wasn’t completed. Caruso & Loader tangled with both of them rolling into T1 unfortunately ending the night for both of them. At the restart Paul got the jump and led until Chris managed to pass leading the race until the finish. Lap traffic came into play about third way through allowing Hickman, Quinn, Guerin, Davis & Milburn the opportunity to trade positions.
Farmer Phil made his return but probably didn’t have the night he may have wanted. Minor mechanical problems caused him to not start his first heat. With repairs made he won his 2nd heat but had brake issues in the feature causing him to pull infield.
VA9 McClure Racing Team with Jamie Hennessy behind the wheel also had a shocker with engine gremlins at Hot Laps, with the problem solved they managed to take a time in time trials, but the rear end exploded putting him into the wall and finished his night. He hit with such a force repair work had to be done to the Pit Gate before the night could continue.
Travelling over from Adelaide for his first trip to Horsham SA3 Ben Morris was another with night 1 gremlins. Running 2nd in Heat 1 he had an oil fire at the completion of the heat, Morris was fine, but the car sustained damage ending his night also.
Racing was hard and fast, and the crowd were treated to an excellent night.
Heat race wins went to A1 Mark Caruso, Chris Solomon, Steve Loader & Phil Lock.
A Main results: - 1st V11 Chris Solomon, 2nd V40 Rusty Hickman, 3rd SA14 Brendan Quinn, 4th SA96 Brendan Guerin, 5th V68 Brett Milburn, 6th V7 Paul Solomon, 7th V95 Ryan Davis, 8th v65 Kane Newcombe, 9th VA91 Dan Scott, 10th V47 Jeremy Kupsch, 11th NS22 Jarreth Argus, 12th N46 Stacey Galliford, 13th D21 Zac Farrer - DNF, 14th V4 Phil Lock- DNF, 15th VA2 Boyd Harris-DNF, 16th D26 Todd Moule-DNF, 17th V10 Steve Loader-DNF, 18th A1 Mark Caruso – DNF, 19th VA75 David Donegan-DNF,

All Star’s favourite driver is making a return this Saturday for the opening night of the Mainline DynoLog Dynamometers All Star Series. Phil Lock (AKA Farmer Phil) is finally returning to the series he has been a part of for the past 17 seasons. “Locky is a true All Star Legend and we are thrilled to see him back on track. It’s not just Locky it’s his entire team, Murray, Jayden, Pary, Nicole, Jacko, Kev, Katrina, Chris, Tracey – to name just a few of Team Lock; they have all played a significant part of our All Star family and we welcome them home.” Mandy Searle says.
Up until a couple of seasons ago Lock had only missed one series round just proving his dedication to both the All Stars and 360’s. As the years went on, he became the unofficial ambassador and mentor of younger drivers as they came along; but it wasn’t just him alone it was the entire Team that helped/mentored/encouraged all the new names that choose to run the All Stars. Farmer Phil is a welcome addition back.
A solid 21 car field will line up for the opening round – AU1 Mark Caruso, SA3 Ben Morris, V10 Steve Loader, SA14 Brendan Quinn, D21 Zac Farrer, V91 Dan Scott, VA95 Dave Donnegan, V95 Ryan Davis, SA 96 Brendan Guerin just a few of the names joining the list of titans released earlier in the week.
