Troy Kuyoth grabbed the lead on lap one of the Late Model feature, Tom Naeyaert jumped into second. On lap six Kuyoth tagged the wall and had to pull off the track. Naeyaert assumed the lead, but only hold it for one lap as a caution slowed the field shortly after Naeayaert took the top spot. Troy Springborn and Nick Anvelink both passed Naeyaert on lap seven. Anvelink continued to pressure Springborn for the duration of the race, but was never able to muster a pass. Naeayert held on to finsh third in the race.
Tom Schaal led the opening two circuits of the IMCA Modified main event before giving way to a hard charging Eddie Muenster. By lap six Marcus Yarie moved to the second spot on the track. Muenster continued to lead though and began to pull away just a bit. A lap thirteen caution wiped away Muenster’s lead. Muenster held the top spot until lap seventeen when Yarie passed Muenster on the outside of turn four to grab the lead. Yarie led the rest of the way for the win. Muenster held on to second, Jamie Schmidt held off Jerry Muenster for third.
In IMCA Stock Car action Tom Riehl grabbed the lead from Ray Depew on lap two and quickly looked to be the car to beat. Riehl withstood early challenges from the likes of Vern Stedjee and Harley Simon. By lap six Kyle Frederick raced his way around Stedjee into the second spot. The following lap Travis VanStaten, who started the race in the last spot after taking the challenge, joined the top three. Riehl, Frederick and VanStraten put on a great show in front of the field as the race ran on. Frederick was able to pass Riehl for the lead on lap twelve, but Riehl took the lead right back entering turn one on the next lap. Riehl would continue to work the outside lane around the track and hold the lead until turn four of the final lap. Frederick finally made the pass for the win as the checkered flag flew. Frederick won by inches to stay unbeaten in feature action. Riehl finished second with VanStraten a close third.
Don Woller raced from outside the first row to lead the first to circuits of the IMCA Stock Car feature. Lucas Lamberies made the pass on Woller to assume the lead on lap three. By lap seven with Lamberies pulling away, Tracy Wassenberg moved into second. A caution flag on lap eight wiped way the lead of Lamberies. Joey Taycher passed Wassenberg to take the second spot behind Lamberies on lap fourteen. Taycher was able to reel in Lamberies and make the pass for the lead before caution flew on lap seventeen setting up a three lap shootout to the finish. Lap eighteen saw Taycher, Wassenberg, and Lamberies go three wide for the lead on the front stretch of the track. Entering turn three Taycher got a bit too high and made contact with the wall allowing Wassenberg and Lamberies to pass him in turn four. Wassenberg would go on to hold off Lamberies for the win. Taycher recovered to finish third.
Cal Chapin led wire to wire to claim the Mighty Four feature. Josh Slewinski held off Scott Blanke to take second.
