Max Ruml led the first attempt while a fierce three-rider battle was developing behind him. Austin Novratil, "Fast" Eddie Castro, and Tyson Burmeister were three-abreast through turn three. Novratil lifted upon exiting turn four which took him across Castro and toward the fence. Novratil dismounted but his bike collected Burmeister just as it impacted the fence. Burmeister, who had nowhere to go, then ran over the prone Novratil and went tumbling to the ground himself. Both riders were down for several minutes but each was able to gingerly leave the track. Novratil was excluded from the restart and Burmeister was too shaken up to participate.

Max Ruml jumped in front on the restart as well with "Battling" Buck Blair and Castro chasing after him. Max Ruml established a comfortable lead ahead of Blair who was hoping for a mistake. Max Ruml didn't turn a wheel wrong and led the entire distance to collect the first of what should be many Scratch Main Event victories. Blair had to settle for second and Castro finished third.

Burmeister opened the evening with a victory ahead of Russell Green. Castro scored his first victory in event two. Tyson Talkington defeated Rocco Scopellite in event three. Max Ruml finished the first round by earning his first win of the night.

Talkington started the second round by defeating former Junior National Champion Jason Ramirez. Broc Nicol beat Blair in the next event. Burmeister scored his second win in a row. Max Ruml ended round two by beating Novratil.

Castro began round three with his second win. Nicol won his second straight race in event 22. Novratil beat Burmeister in the next heat. Blair concluded the heats with a win ahead of Max Ruml.

Novratil and Castro finished one-two in the first semi and transferred to the main event. Ruml won the second semi with Blair following him into the main by finishing second.

Burmeister completed the main event field by winning the Last Chance. Talkington was second, Green finished third, and Nicol was credited with fourth after breaking the tapes.

Chris Wiggins led the first two laps of the Support Main Event. Dalton Leedy weaved through traffic from the 40 yard line and only had Wiggins in front of him on lap three. Leedy went by the leader as they started lap four and he raced away with his third straight Support Main Event victory. Wiggins held on to second, Ron Davis finished third, Steve "Beach Ball" Brown was fourth, Kevin Fife finished fifth, and Chris Jones was sixth.

Junior National Champion Dillon Ruml fought off the persistent challenge of Kurtis Hamill to win the Junior 250 Main Event for the third week in a row. Courtney Crone was third, Michael Wells finished fourth, and Gage Geist was fifth.

Sebastian Palmese overcame a 60-yard handicap to win the Mini 150 Main Event. Luke Whitcomb finished second, Dakota Shockley was third, and Keelan Venegas finished fourth.

Travis Horn defeated Jason Palmese Jr. to win the Pee Wee First Division Main Event.

Cole Ayers was victorious in the Pee Wee Second Division Main Event. Cameron Titterness was second, Adam Csanyi finished third, and Brianna Jones was fourth.

National Champions Joe Jones and Johnny Glover won all three of their heats and completed their perfect evening by winning the Sidecar Main Event. Bryan Motis and Josh Bennett were second, Dual Anderson and Robert Dent finished third, and Jeff Medberry and Heather Bennett were fourth.
