During the Budweiser IMCA Late Model Season Championship A-Main, Sean Johnson stole the lead from pole-sitter Tyler Droste at the drop of the green flag. Johnson opened up a slightly lead, but Droste keep hustling around the three-eighths mile dirt track. In the closing laps, Johnson was battling heavy lapped traffic.

That's when Droste was able to put his nose underneath the leader. Johnson picked the wrong lane will working to complete lap twenty-three,and found himself caught behind a slower car. Droste was able to slip by and race off to the win. Johnson finished second. Been Seeman and Curt Martin followed across the line. Rick Wendling started twelfth, but raced to a top five finish during the caution free twenty-five lap A-Main.

JD Auringer took the lead when the Performance Bodies IMCA Modifieds main event came to life. Ronn Lauritzen applied pressure on the leader. The duo would race side-by-side through the first half. Auringer was able to put five car lengths between he and Lauritzen. In the closing laps, lap traffic raced two-wide and the lead pack closed in on their tail. Lauritzen was able to close back in, but he could not wrestle the lead away. Auringer would finish first followed by Lauritzen. Brennen Chipp finished third. Patrick Flannagan and Ed Thomas closed out the top five.

Jarod Weepie and Kevin Rose broke away from the pack when the Burco Sales IMCA Stock Car A-Main got underway. Weepie held the lead while Rose looked for away underneath for the lead. Chris Luloff closed in on the front pack. He was able to work past Rose and eventual Weepie for the lead. Luloff raced to the win. Weepie, Rose, Norman Chesmore, and Roger Ciesielski made up the rest of the top five finishers.

Tony Olson took the win in the Tenacity Graphics IMCA SportMod main event. Kevin Hurst came home second followed by Alex Zwanzinger.

Benji Irvine lead all fifteen laps in the Big Daddy Chassis IMCA Hobby Stock feature followed by Justin Lichty and Tyler Ollendiecck.
