Show Meeting - simply sensational Posted 7th May, 2012 Phrases like "Meeting of the year", "best Speedway ever", don't get thrown around very offen, but last night thousands and thousands of people turned out to watch annual Show Meeting at the Kingaroy Showgrounds which was a huge hit. Modified Productions headlined the show and put on some nail biting racing which ended up seeing Kingaroy's David Barbeler getting the epic 25 lap feature race. Barbeler worked his way through the field to get past Toowoomba's Peter Gary on the final corner to win an thrilling feature race in front of his home crowd. Hervey Bay's Steven Zahl finished third. It has been some time since David Barbeler stood on the top spot of the podium, but he certainly showed the big local crowd that there is still plenty of life in the those legs yet. The feature race had everything from great side by side racing along with plenty of drama and some big rolloevers. Kingaroy's Stephen "Chook" Gertiz rode out a massive rollover mid way through the final while running 5th. Geritz walked away unhurt from the crash but the SB10 EL Falcon was junked in the accident. And then only a few laps later Dalby's Mick Shelford rode out a big crash in turn 3 which saw him land on Jessica Raymonts AU Falcon. Both drivers where once again uninjuried in the crash. But the story of the night and the final, was the dominating performance of Gympie's Aidan Raymont who won all three heat races and took up the Toowoomba Steering and Suspenion back of the bus Challenge which meant he started from the rear of the final. Raymont started from position 20 in the feature and passed every single car around the outside to get to the lead within 15 laps. While leading Raymont suffered a broken shock causing him to retire from the race. Kingaroy's Ben Stead had a perfect night in the Street Sedans by winning all three heat races along with the 20 lap feature race. This has capped off an amazing season for the youngster who has been extremely fast in the little Honda. In the other events Ken Crompton took out the Wingless feature, Carter Armstrong won the Junior Sedan feature (that also saw a first lap rollover for Jayden Peacock - who was uninjuried in the massive crash) and although the Q52 Lancer of Al Mathers crossed the line first in the 4 Cylinder feature race, it was later discovered that Al substituted Ian Jones into the car, so the officials later disqualified the car from the event, meaning second place Joel Thomas (on debut) ended up with the win. So after a fanastic season, the South Burnett Speedway club now has a well earned break until racing returns in the new season for the Queensland Street Sedan Title on 29th & 30th September. From everyone at the club, we would like to sincerely thank all the drivers, volunteer officials and the massive crowds who have supported the race track during the season, as because of your support, the Kingaroy Speedway keeps going from strength to strenght and looks forward to returning bigger and better in 2012/13.

After starting from pole position during the feature race, Mat raced out to an early lead, but was gunned down by Steve Pearce who entered into a sensational battle in lap traffic. Pascoe and Pearce battled for position right across the track that provided multiple lines of racing on the very much improved new racing surface. Pascoe eventually got back into the lead and held off a late charge from newly crowned Tasmanian Champion Wayne Randall who finished second ahead of Wayne Brims. Kingaroy's David Musch finished 7th. In the Modified Productions, the dominance of Gympie's Aidan Raymont continued after another great performance to win Round 5 of the Quantum Racing Industries South West Allstars Series.
