Dave Hess Jr. led the first lap of the Super Late Model Feature with Dave Tackett second and Darrell Bossard third. Then an incident in turn two on lap two collected Paul Briggs, Rich Gardner, Andy Boozel, Ward Schell, Dave Lyon and Doug Eck. Hess, Tackett, Bossard, Matt Urban and Dick Barton were the top five for the restart. Tackett spun to a stop coming out of turn two on the restart stopping faced in the wrong direction and Chris Hackett drove nearly completely under Tackett. Both cars left the speedway on the hook. Hess led lap three with Urban second followed by Scott Gurdak, Dick Barton and Bossard. Hess was out in front by several car lengths over Urban on lap five as the field began to string out around the speedway. Randy Lobb moved by Bossard for fifth on lap seven and the yellow flew for Ward Schell in turn two. Starter Mark Matthew waived off the restart and accepted the next. Hess completed lap ten with Urban, Barton, Gurdak, Lobb and Bossard in tow. Hess stated to pull away from Urban at the crossed flags and Gurdak had settled into third followed by Barton and Bossard. The race remained green with Hess slowly catching the back markers and Urban several car lengths behind. Hess would not be caught winning his first of the season with Urban second and Gurdak third.

Dave McClenahan jumped into the early led of the Spectator Championship event. Shayne Erhard spun then pulled back onto the track in front of the leaders collecting Jason Genco for the first yellow with six laps complete. Genco suffered a flat in the incident. McClenahan, Mark Thompson, Bill Reeves, Clarence Dickerson and Lonnie Waldron were the leaders for the lap seven restart. The top four restarted single file with the rest of the field doubling up. Thompson challenged McClenahan on the restart but McClenahan held on. One lap later McClenahan lost the handle in turn three spinning for the second caution. Mark Thompson became the new leader with John Galati second and Dickerson third. Galati finished his charge to the front by grabbing the lead from Thompson on the restart. A lap ten spin by Erhard brought out the third yellow just before the halfway mark. Galati quickly gained a six car length advantage over Thompson. The race remained green until lap seventeen when Dan Clark slowed to a stop on the front stretch. Thompson nearly spun in turn one on the restart and then several cars spun causing the yellow to quickly follow the green. Galati, Thompson and Dickerson were still the leaders. The yellow flew once more on the white flag lap for Clark in turn four and John Britt in turn two. Galati won the last lap dash to win his second of the season.

Tim Nocero led the early laps of the Budweiser Super Sportsman feature. Ben Burgess was second followed by Bob Van Arsdale. John Boardman took over third on lap five then a spin by Steve Kania brought out the caution with six laps complete. Chad Carlson stole third from Boardman on the restart for third then one lap later moved into second. Kania had trouble once more and the yellow flew on lap eleven. Hank Francis tagged the wall in turn one on the restart returning the yellow to the speedway before another lap was completed. Nocero lost control in turn two on the restart giving Carlson the lead with Mike Kosinski second and Don McGuire third. Francis and Jake Eller made contact on the backstretch sending Francis in to a violent barrel roll down the track. The car came to rest in the middle of the speedway as the red flag flew. Francis was quickly checked by the safety crew and reported that he was fine. The yellow flew once more with three remaining. Hazzard put heavy pressure on Kosinski for the second spot in the final laps as Carlson led. Carlson won the event for his second of the season.

Lester Shoff grabbed the lead on the start of the Outlaw Cadet feature followed by Nathan Short. Short nearly spun on lap two but did not lose as spot then the yellow flew for Paul Norman in turn three. Shoff spun one lap after the restart bringing out the second yellow and sending Short to the top spot followed by Brian Crandall and Steve Moynihan. John Cline moved into third on the restart then the yellow flew with six complete for Joe Harvey. Shoff continued to have problems spinning again in turn three with thirteen laps complete. Crandall broke on the final lap while fighting with Cline for the second spot. Short took the checkers with Cline in the runner up spot.

Quincy Turner led the E-Mods onto the speedway for their feature event and led the first lap. Ron Seeley was second followed by Scott Pangrazio. Adam Hilyer bought out the first caution on lap three. After several laps of side by side racing Pangrazio took control of the second spot with Dave Hess Jr. third and Seeley fourth. Turner had caught the end of the field with five laps remaining and Hess passed Pangrazio for the second spot. Dana Wellington spun to a stop in turn four with sixteen laps complete for the second yellow. Turner led the final four laps for his first win of the season.
