~ 2025 Victorian 360\LS sprintcar TITLE ~ 1st place Jamie Veal, 2nd place Lockie McHugh, 3rd place Tate Frost ~

Despite early weather challenges which caused delays and program adjustments, spectators were treated to an exciting night of racing on Saturday.

Warrnambool-born Veal provided plenty of action as he drove his way to the chequered flag on Saturday night, taking victory in the 360LS Sprintcar Victorian Title.

With the two-heat format placing an emphasis on clean air and taking advantage of passing opportunities, South Australia’s Ben Morris started on pole alongside Warrnambool’s Will Carroll.

Unfortunately for Carroll, his night ended early when he recorded the first DNF.

The feature race saw a tight battle between Morris and Veal, with Veal using lap traffic to his advantage.

The pair traded positions several times as they ran the high line, but ultimately Veal’s patience paid off.

Recently crowned number one Lockie McHugh finished second while Tate Frost wound his way through the field from 11th to earn third spot on the podium.

In the Super Rods, Jamie May took line honours by four seconds over Michael Coad, with Jacob Pitcher completing the top three.

Despite being a late addition to the program, the Production Sedans also provided plenty of on-track action.

The 20-lap main was won by Nathan Hutchins, followed by Brad Colquhoun and Shane Hammond.

Action will return to Premier Speedway for the Easter Sprintcar Trial on Sunday, April 20.

The program will also include Super Rods and the always-popular fireworks display.
