Jimmy "Little Animal" Fishback shocked his competition with a fantastic move to win the main event for the second time this season on Armed Forces Night at Industry Speedway. Former World Champion Billy "The Bullet" Hamill and Charlie "The Edge" Venegas both entered the main event undefeated and a coin toss was held to determine who would have first gate choice. Venegas won the toss and chose gate one while Hamill took gate two. Venegas was first off the line when the tapes went up and led into turn one. Fishback went around Hamill in turn one then got his wheels in line exiting turn two and nudged Venegas aside on the back straight for the lead. Hamill followed Fishback past Venegas entering turn three to grab second. Fishback led after one lap but he had Hamill breathing down his neck. Hamill hounded Fishback the remaining three laps, but was unable to force a mistake. Fishback coolly held him off for the hard-earned victory. Austin Novratil was third, Venegas finished fourth, and "Flyin" Mike Faria was fifth. Shawn "Mad Dog" McConnell opened the heats with a win over Faria. Venegas trapped from the outside and scored his first win in event two. Fishback beat Michael Raines to win event three. Hamill ended the first round with his first win. Hamill began the second round by beating Fishback for his second straight win. Novratil beat Raines in event 10. Venegas defeated McConnell for his second victory. "Nasty" Nate Perkins beat Aaron Fox to end round two. McConnell opened the final round by beating Tyson Talkington for his second win. Hamill maintained his perfect score with a win over Castro. Faria held off Fishback for his first win. Venegas matched Hamill's perfection by beating Novratil in the final heat race. Castro made the best start in the first semi but Hamill charged up the inside followed by Novratil and both riders transferred to the main event. Venegas and Fishback finished one-two in the second semi to book their places in the main. Faria won the Last Chance to fill the final spot in the main-event field. The Support Main Event began with a father-son battle between Rick "The Rage" Valdez and Gabe Price. After racing side-by-side on the back straight, Valdez used a shrewd cutback move to take the lead from his son as they exited turn four. Although Price sought revenge the entire race, he was unable to regain the lead. Valdez won the race and bragging rights over his son, Price finished second, Harold Hartke was third, and Jake Myers was fourth. Kip McClain led the Support B Main Event for three laps before Craig Sprecher passed him for the lead and his second victory of the season. Kevin Fife finished third and Kevin Johnson was fourth. Samuel Ramirez defeated Kurtis Hamill in the Youth 250cc Main Event. Dalton Leedy made the best start in the Youth 200cc Main Event, but Shea Bendykowski took the lead on the back straight. Bendykowski never looked back from there and went on to victory. Leedy held on to second, Broc Nicol was third, Sebastian Palmese finished fourth, and Michael Wells was fifth. Alyssa Smith continued her domination by winning the Pee Wee Main Event for the fourth time in a row. Dominic Laney finished second, Jake Isaac was third, Dylan Smith finished fourth, Walker Calvo was fifth, and Garrett Briggs finished sixth. National Champions Joe Jones and Jimmy Olsen trapped from the outside and took the lead in turn one of the Sidecar Main Event. The rest of the field gave chase, but only viewed the number ones on their backs. Jones and Olsen led all the way to the finish, Dan Jones and Brandi McElroy were second, Dylan Beard and David Pane finished third, and Shawn Driggers and Missy Driggers were fourth.
