Just 6 days after the USMTS Special at Highway 3 Raceway in Allison, the speedway would roar back to life with another great night of racing at the Home of the Giant Tenderloin. The night saw 3 and 4 wide racing action and a very smooth race track a little dusty by the time features came on to the speedway.
10 USRA Stock Cars, 16 USRA B-Mods, 9 USRA Hobby Stocks and 24 IMCA Modifieds signed in to do battle on the big half mile.
First up in the features was the USRA Stock Cars for 15 laps. Tory Reicks would get a wonderful start and lead the race from start to finish depsite a race caution on lap 14 for Dan Feltus coming to a stop in turn 3 & 4 setting up a green-white-checkered and now making the event 16 laps. Reicks would still take the win, Dan Trimble was 2nd, Arlen Hoy was 3rd, Tom Schmitt was 4th and John Emerson was 5th.
USRA B-Mods were up next for 15 laps and Michael Grantham took the early lead but then after the completion of lap 5 the yellow came out for Jamey Ayers in turn 3. On the restart Grantham would have Joel Rust and Dan Tenold but it wasn't those 2 he had to worry about because Alex Zwanziger would take the lead on lap 10 and go on to the win. Mike Jaeger was 2nd, Grantham was 3rd, Brandon Hare was 4th and Joel Rust was 5th.
The 12 lap USRA Hobby Stock feature was next on to the track and it was Stac Schroeder taking the early lead and never looking back depsite a late race caution for one of the Wiltse cars spinning in turn 4. Finishing behind Schroeder was Chris Hovden, Austin Wolfgram, Adam Gebel and Ryan Bochmann.
The final feature was the $1,000 to win IMCA Modified Special 25 lap feature where 24 cars would take to the track. Duane Peterson would lead lap 1 but "Downtown"David Brown would take the lead on lap 2 and Brown look to be having fun out front and then the yellow came out on lap 5, first for Dave Doughty stopping in turn 2. On the restart ther would be a pile up in turn 1 which also saw a car go over . Jason Snyder would roll his car but be okay, Jerry King, JJ Wise and Levi Nielsen would also be involved. Brown would continue to set the pace but then a caution would come out on lap 14 for Nielsen in turn 4. On the restart, Brown would have some issues and that would give the lead over to Van Genderen and then the caution came out for Kurt Krauskopf, Jeremy Brogaard and Duane Peterson in turn 2. Van Genderen would lead the final 10 laps and take the win. Ron Barker was 2nd, Richie Gustin was 3rd, Troy Cordes was 4th and Scott Olson.
Racing action started at 7p, Heat Races finished at 8p, Features started at 8:15p and Racing came to an end at 9:31p.
