Franklin was followed by Antonio Pintaro while Garitt Wytaske, Jason Born and ninth starter Jared Boumeester went three wide for third.

The 20-lap Olympic Fire Protection WISSOTA Super Stock feature was a dandy, Kevin Hager and Jon Duffy led the 14-car pack to the green flag A scary moment happened on lap one when Dylan Kromschroeder spun in turn four and caught Harland Morehart’s car. Morehart spun, hit the infield berm and rolled over. After several tense moments the 78-year old Morehart was deemed to be alright after the tumble much to the delight of the huge crowd.
When the race resumed, Tommy Richards drove past Duffy for second and chased Hager up front. Richards took the lead from Hager on lap four while Neil Eckhart cracked the top five. Danny Richards vaulted past Hager for second and tried to catch his brother Tommy up front. Brandon Duellman and Jeff Brauer were also in the mix when the top five ran in tight formation.
Eckhart and Duellman continued to move towards the front and slipped past Danny Richards to race for second. Eckhart got past Duellman for second on lap 10, but things remained tight up front. Eckhart and Duellman caught Tommy Richards and all of a sudden were three wide for the lead.
Duellman was scored the leader on lap 12, but Eckhart rebounded on lap 14 to claim the lead. Duellman then had Jeff Brauer to deal with for second. Eckhart led the rest of the way for his fourth win of the season and his third win in a row at the speedway. Brauer edged Duellman for second with Tommy Richards fourth and Hager in the top five.
Jacob Dahle led the initial laps of the NAPA Auto Care Centers USRA Modified feature. Dahle was followed by Josh Angst and Lucas Schott. There were two quick yellows to sow the race and keep things close up front. On a restart, Dahle, Schott and Angst went three abreast up front with Schott now in the lead.
Angst drove up to challenge Schott for the lead on lap five while Brad Waits passed Dahle for third. Angst took the lead on lap six and pulled away.
