THE newest Super2 race winner will get his shot at the big time later this year, with Campbell Logan confirmed for his Repco Supercars Championship debut.
It comes as Tickford Racing rounds out its wildcard roster, with Logan to join Ben Gomersall for a one-off start at The Bend 500 in September.
Factory Ford junior Cameron McLeod had initially been linked to the seat, but the turn of events will see all four Tickford Autosport Super2 drivers get a taste of the main game in 2026.
Gomersall is also making a solo wildcard appearance at the Ipswich Super440; Reuben Goodall will enter the Townsville 500 before joining Thomas Randle for the enduros; and Nash Morris is having another run with PremiAir Racing for The Bend and Bathurst.

“To complete the wildcard program with a full Tickford Autosport line-up is fantastic and a testament to the driver talent we hold within the team,” said Tickford CEO Simon Brookhouse.
“Since joining the team Campbell has demonstrated the commitment to his craft and it was great to see him achieve the results he did in Darwin.
“He is well deserving of this opportunity and I have no doubt that utilising our experienced main game drivers will give him the best chance to get the most out of this wildcard entry.
“We are very excited to have Ben and Campbell paired up for the opening race of the Ryco Enduro Cup and will be looking to give them the best opportunity to go well come September.”

Logan said: “I’ve always dreamed of racing in Supercars and to be able to finally debut in the main game alongside Ben Gomersall at The Bend truly is surreal.
“There has been a lot of work over my career to get to an opportunity like this. Off the back of a round win in Darwin for Super2, I’m confident I’m ready to take the next step but I know it’ll be a massive learning experience.
“The Tickford Autosport program has been instrumental in my development this year having been able to lean on Frosty (Mark Winterbottom), Randle and (Cam) Waters, which I’ll definitely be continuing leading into The Bend.
“I can’t thank my family, partners and Tickford Racing enough for getting me to this point.
“The hard work doesn’t stop here, it’s another step forward and I can’t wait to show what I can do in a Gen3 Mustang.”
Gomersall will test today at Queensland Raceway.
