In addition to the stock cars, 23 IMCA hobby stocks and 23 IMCA sportmods filled out the card. It was a beautiful night compared to some of the humidity fests we have had recently, and that must have put everybody in a good mood, because we ran off all of the heats in good order. The sun was still in the sky when the sportmods took to the track for their feature. Cayden Carter ran a solid low line to win that event.
