In the Tri-State Late Models – Gary Brown Jr. had a big task ahead of him. The defending series champion started 19th on the grid and needed to pass pole-sitter Nate Beyenhof to claim the series title.
It was a restart at the midpoint of the 20-lapper when Brown ripped the top side from ninth and into the top five, just a few laps later, he challenged and passed Beyenhof for the second position.
