INCREDIBLE FIFTH STRAIGHT WIN FOR HUGHBANKS
When the green flag waved in the IMCA Sport Compact feature, it was a three car battle for the lead between points leader Alex Thompson, Krys Yost and Zach Hughbanks. An early caution regrouped the field and on the restart, it was a heated battle between Thompson and Hughbanks for the lead. Hughbanks, who has won four straight victories at Dacotah Speedway, slipped by Thompson on lap four. Thompson hung with Hughbanks and as they continued to battle hard for the lead, it allowed third place Benjamin Burke to reel them in. With four laps remaining, Burke passed Thompson for second place. However, Benjamin Burke would have to settle for second place. Alex Thompson crossed the finish line in third ahead of Kevin Perdue and Krys Yost. For the fifth time this season, Zach Hughbanks parked his race car in Dacotah Speedway victory lane.
