Teter jumped out to the early lead with Brown and Joseph Bisson tucked in behind and two caution periods would slightly change the running order as on the final green flag restart, Brown would jump to the outside of Teter to pick up the win. Teter would finish second followed by Bisson, Steven Shreck and Mark Lockcuff rounding out the top five. UCAR action saw Randy Good capture the pole with Lauren Edgerton alongside and as the green flag waved Good scooted out to a comfortable lead. Edgerton however was left to battle with Chris Grogg for second. Back in the pack the cars of Aaron Bell, Jeremy Griffith and Brandon Johnson had their own competition going as they were rubbing and bumping on each lap. On lap 16 that would all come to a halt as Johnson and Bell got out of sorts coming out of turn 2, the #00 Johnson car would slam into the wall and totally destroy the front end of the car. Bell however got the worst end of the deal as he was totally unconscious when the rescue workers got to him. Bell was transported to the hospital but was released later in the night with a mild concussion. Good would take the win followed by Grogg and Edgerton. INEX Legends would take to the track for the final time this season with Michael Edwards on the pole with a time of 17.733 with Kevin Bush alongside at 17.448. However when the flag waved Dusty Summers followed Edwards on the inside to take over the second spot followed by Scotty Edwards in third. Lap after lap the #44 of Summers was beating on the back bumper of Michael Edwards and was warned by track officials on the radio to cease the over aggressive driving. Summers ignored the warning and on the very next lap spun the leader on the front stretch. Both cars were sent to the rear of the field giving the top spot to Scotty Edwards who would take the win followed by Kevin Bush and Sergio Pena in third. Summers was disqualified. VMCRA Mini Cups were on the track with Quinn Houff on the pole with Ben Roundabush on the outside. However the positions would not stay like that for long as the #77 of Ryan Adams was on the move and passed the #17 Houff machine with a strong move to the outside. There were very few caution periods which led to some very interesting and exciting racing through out the field. Late in the race Adams seemed to slightly slow down and that allowed Hunter Koschara and Travis Roach to both get past. Koschara would hold on to take the win with Roach in second and a very upset Adams in third. Street Stock action would have Sparky Staton on the pole with the 83x of Larry Smith alongside. Staton would lead flag to flag unchallenged for the win with Smith and Mike Gund rounding out the top three. Chad Click would pace the Sportsman Class with a time of 16.354 with Kevin Powell alongside at 17.385. Click would set the early pace followed by the #23 of Brandon Comer, Powell and Ty Miller. Comer had his car sideways several times in an attempt to catch the #38 of Click but to no avail as Click would drive away to secure the win as Comer, Miller, Mike Southers and Powell rounded out the top five.
The last race of the season belonged to the Ladies in the She-Car race which only had 3 cars because of the damage and mechanical issues of the guys' in the UCAR race earlier in the evening. That however would not dampen their spirits or fun as Bobbi Jo Good would take the win followed by Lori Grogg and Jennifer Miller.
