*In a week where Mother Nature threw everything, she had delivering 10" of rain at the Speedway. Ryan Whitworth went to work and delivered a fast smooth racing surface that produced 4 new winners.
*First up was the Home Savings Bank Factory Stocks. Dallas Joyce had won the last 4 races at the Humboldt Speedway and was looking for win number 5 tonight. In the heat Dylan Allen would just to the early lead and hold off Joyce for the win. Dallas would use his front row starting spot to take the lead at the drop of the green with only a handful of cautions slowing him down. Dylan Allen had worked his way up to second place but could not find a way around Joyce who would go on to take the win. But that's where the drama started a weight was found on the racing surface and during post-race inspection it was found to be off of Dallas Joyce's car which is a DQ. That would hand the win to Dylan Allen and send him to the Pete's Victory lane. Behind Allen the finish was Dallas Joyce, Jason Thurman and Tevyn James.
