Gower held on to the lead until lap twenty six whenKeith Prattpowered past for the top spot but Pratt was about to have some serious mechanical problems as his left front tie rod broke and his brakes went out. Pratt held on to the lead until coming off the final corner when disaster struck as a lapped car and a fast closingMark Burgtorfclosed up onto Pratt. Pratt ended up rolling his car, flying through the air and coming to a stop but not before Burgtorf, Gower and Lonnie Bailey crossed the finish line as the checkered flag waved. Pratt managed to score fourth followed by Justin Reed in fifth. Pratt and Bailey were the heat race winners. Pratt closed to within four points of points leader, Justin Reed as only eleven points separate the top 5 of Reed, Pratt, Lonnie Bailey, Denny Woodworth and Gower.
Steven DeLonjay was on a mission to set a new feature win streak record in the Miller Lite UMP Modified division but the other twenty one entrants were not going to lay down and just let him take the win. Michael Long pulled into the lead of the main event on the third lap and held off some very serious challenges fromJared Schlipmanthrough lap twelve with DeLonjay nipping at the heals of Schlipman. DeLonjay pulled into second of lap thirteen as Schlipman began to fade back. DeLonjay kept up the challenge to Long until a lap twenty one caution set up a restart with DeLonjay and Long restarting side by side but it did play out as expected as Chris Spaulding came blasting past DeLonjay for the second spot. Spaulding kept up the pressure on Long but slipped up on the final lap allowing DeLonjay one last slot at Long which did not bear out. Long took the win with DeLonjay in second, Spaulding in third, Schlipman in fourth and Ray Bollinger in fifth. Craig Spegal, DeLonjay and Schlipman were the heat race winners.
