Paul House led the most laps with 43, with Kent “Big Time” Connolly going on to take the win.

This week the drivers showed good race-craft, which resulted in 3 cautions with 8 lead changes and there were 2 disqualifications and 4 disconnects in a 18 car field The race ended with Kent Connolly capturing his 4th win in a row and 4th of the season, with Steven Thomson Driver of the #67 Ride TV Camry taking 2nd, Joel Kilburn in 3rd and Mike Schrader nabbing 4th.
