First feature of the night was the IMCA Hobby Stock 15 lap feature. Before a lap would be completed the caution would fly when Nick Welch, Jacob Floyd and Erick Knutsen got together in turn 4. When the race got going it was Doug Laughridge taking the early lead but Scott Pippert would chase him down on lap 7 and take over the lead. The final race caution would come out on lap 10 for Bruce Fraser in turns 3 and 4. Pippert would lead the last 5 laps and take the win, Laughridge would settle for 2nd, Brian Happel was 3rd, Justin Stander was 4th and Rod Grother was 5th.
In the IMCA Sport Compacts 12 lap feature it was Neil Nabholz leading the first lap but just after 1 lap was completed the caution would come out when Nathan Chandler would go around in turn 2, the again would fly on the restart for Craig Streeter going around in turn 1. On the restart, Nabholz would be passed by Steve Miedke and it was Miedke leading the remaining laps to take the laps. Brad Chandler, Merv Chandler, Brett Vanous and Nabholz would round out the top 5.
Up next was the IMCA SportMods feature and before 1 lap was completed the caution would come out twice. Ben Chapman would take the lead when the race got going but then the caution would again come out. Tyler Droste would inherit the lead when Chapman spun out a lead Droste wouldn't give up despite a caution on lap 3 and lap 8. Finishing behind Droste was Racer Hulin, Kurt Moeding, Jim Buhlmann and Danny Dvorak. Hardcharger was Jesse Belez as he advanced 16 spots to finish 7th.
The IMCA Stock Cars would live up to the name "Class To Tough To Tame" because it was Andy Bryant leading the first lap but then a red flag would fly when Rick Galli would spin which stacked everybody up behind him and he collected Damon Murty, Scooter Dulin and Sean Johnson. Murty would rollover and Dulin would drive over the top of him, both drivers would be okay but the night would come to an end for both. When the race resumed it was Bryant continuing to lead but John Emerson would get by on lap 3. Bryant wouldn't give up as him and Emerson would battle for the lead the rest of the way. Bryant would lead on laps 5 and 7 with Emerson leading the rest of the laps and go on and take his 2nd win of the weekend. Bryant finished 2nd, Norman Chesmore was 3rd, Jason Deshaw was 4th and Phillip Holtz was 5th.
The final feature of the night was the Hogan Memorial IMCA Modified feature. The first half of the feature saw 6 cautions not counting the halfway point checkered caution. Dan Chapman had redrew the pole and led the first 6 laps but it was Richie Gustin taking the lead on lap 7. In the 2nd half of the feature there was 5 cautions and Gustin would have to deal with Jerry Luloff, Luloff would take the lead on lap 28 but Gustin came back and led the remaining laps to take the win and a paycheck of $3,150. Chapman came back and finished 2nd, Luloff was 3rd, Joe Docekal was 4th and Cayden Carter was 5th.
