Carson Macedo won the Arctic Cat All-Star Circuit of Champions main event at the Stateline Speedway in Busti, N.Y., on Saturday, June 8, 2018.

Tony Stewart’s Arctic Cat All Star Circuit of Champions made its first appearance at Stateline Speedway since August 5, 1970 when Lee Osborne picked up the win. 29 of the 410 alcohol-fueled racers signed into the pit area along with 12 of the RUSH “602” Sprinters, in their third-ever appearance. Drivers attempting to qualify came from ten states, Canada, and Australia. After Ashley Fall performed the Star Spangled Banner racing the evening began with time trials for the Arctic Cat All Star Sprints. Jonestown, PA’s Brock Zearfoss set fast time of 14.401 sec over Aaron Reutzel, Jac Haudenschild, Chad Kemenah, and Tony Stewart.

A program of heats and “B” Mains followed by a “Dash” set the feature lineup with heats going to Macedo, Reutzel, and Lee Jacobs with Zearfoss winning the Dash and the Pole Position for the 30-lap “A” Main. The “B” Main went to Danny Dietrich.

The RUSH “602” wingless Sprints were the first feature on the agenda. The class, new this year, attracted twelve cars for the $600 to win twenty lap feature. Pole sitter Chad Ruhlman, who began his racing career at Stateline, was the leader from the drop of the green flag. Gale Ruth quickly came to second from third on the grid. At nine laps several cars got together coming out of turn four but all regained control and no yellow was necessary. With two laps left Dave Hawkins spun coming out of four, slowing the event. Ruhlman, of nearby Bemis Point, NY went on to his third win in a row over Gale Ruth, Arnold Kent, Zach Morrow, and Mike Lutz.

Twenty four Arctic Cat All Star Sprints lined up for the start of their $5000 to win 30 lap feature but pole sitter Brock Zearfoss suffered a flat right rear tire on the parade laps forcing him to the pits and to the rear of the field for the start. Carson then led from the green, opening a half straight lead by five laps complete, when Aaron Reutzel spun in turn four. After green again was shown Macedo continued to lead, using the extreme high line coming off turns two and four. Caution appeared again at lap eight when John Garvin slowed on the back straight with a flat left rear tire. After green Danny Dietrich was the “man on the move” coming from 19th on the starting grid to 11th. Macedo caught the rear of the field at lap eleven, continuing to open his lead. At halfway the front five were Macedo, Greg Hodnett, Chad Kemenah, Tony Stewart, and Paul McMahan. McMahan got by Stewart at lap 21. Macedo went on to the win, his first ASCoC triumph of the season with no changes in the top five. Overall, it was Macedo’s second ASCoC, his first coming in 2017 at Lincoln, IL.
