THE Southern 500 Speedway has wrapped up another season with a full night of racing on Saturday.

The highlight of the night came with the fourth round of the Formula 500 Stampede Series with 29 drivers taking on two heats each plus finals.

Portland’s Angus Hollis missed out on a place in the A main final, having to be content with an eighth placing in the B main.

Hollis had earlier finished seventh in heat 2B, but did not get to the start line for heat 1B.

Series leader Jordan Rae took the chequered flag in the A main final, just ahead of Dylan Willsher in second and Brooke Buckingham in third.

A relatively clean race meant 15 of the 20 drivers were able to get to the finish line in the 25-lap A main final.

Neville Grange took out the super rods 20-lap final, after starting second on the grid.
