Mike Bitner and Jace Parmley redrew the row one starting positions for the Cash Money Super Dirt Series Late Model 25-lap main event with Parmley quickly assuming command of the race in a two-car breakaway with fourth-starting Mitch Keeter. By lap seven, Keeter pressured Parmley at the front of the pack but Parmley held strong until Keeter moved to the low side by lap eight to take the top spot. Bitner held strong inside the top three, just ahead of Isaac Keepper and Tim Petty through lap ten. The leaders began encountering heavy lapped traffic by lap twelve. Keeter had built a sizeable lead, but Parmely began to reel the leader back in by lap 15 with an intense battle for the lead through lapped cars. At lap 20, Keeter led on the high side with Parmely doing all he could to draw close to the leader. Meanwhile Btner, Keepper and Dustin Mooneyham worked to secure spots inside the top five.

It was an all-Jeremy front row as Jeremy Lile and Jeremy Polston began the $1,000-to-win B-Mod main event from row one. Lile grabbed the lead early ahead of Jessie Mulich and Mike Ryun as Polston slipped to fourth. Lile held strong at the point in front of Mulich, Ryun, Donnie Dannar, and Polston through lap five. Lapped traffic came into play by the lap ten point of the race. By lap 13, it was a three-car breakaway amongst Lile, Mulich and Ryun. By lap 17 the top of the order changed with Mulich grabbing the lead with Lile second. The first yellow flag of the race came on lap 18 with Mulich leading , Lile, Ryun, Sturgis Streeter, and Daniel Harris. Polson encountered problems in turn two, which led to his car leaving the speedway at a high rate of speed eventually going upside down in a wild series of flips. Polston quickly emerged from the car and came to the top of the track to let family, friends, and fans know that he was okay after the incident. After the red-flag delay, Mulich continued to lead Lile, Ryun, Streeter, and Harris. The race was slowed for a second and final time at lap 17. From this point on, it was Mulich in command as he drove to his first-ever CMS victory. Lile ran strong in second, Ryun was third, followed by Harris, Terry Schultz, and Streeter inside the top six.

A week removed from capturing his second-consecutive track championship, Spencer Reiff led the field to the initial green flag for the 20-lap Pure Stock main event alongside Tobin Bartlett. Over the first three laps, Reiff and Bartlett swapped the lead until Reiff eventually emerged at the front of the field until caution slowed the race on lap five. Reiff and Bartlett then broke away from the rest of the field after green-flag racing resumed. Another caution waved at lap seven with Reiff leading Bartlett, and fourth-starting Bobby Russell. Just passed the halfway point, Reiff held the lead over Russell, Bartlett, Jonathan Evans, and David Doelz. On lap 14, Russell began pressuring Reiff at the front of the field with the drivers running several close laps near the front. This intense battle lasted until lap 19 when the two leaders made contact, relegating them both to the tail end of the field, falling from contention for the victory. Bartlett then moved to the front of the field over Evans, and Cameron Kelly. Bartlett then had a different view on the race as he took command and did not look back in his first-ever CMS victory. Jonathan Evans was second, followed by Kelly, Doelz, Jerett Evans, and Reiff inside the top six.

Meyer made his way to the front of the mix at lap eight just as a yellow flag slowed the field. From here, Meyer led Bolin, Burns, Dusting Dennison. While Meyer eventually pulled away, Bolin and Burns waged an extremely close but clean battle for second. Just as it appeared Meyer was going to establish his own postal code, Bolin and Burns reeled the leader back in as they maneuvered their way through lapped traffic. By the time the white flag was displayed, Meyer’s once comfortable lead had to diminished to just over a car length. However, this night belonged to Meyer as he drove to his second E-Mod feature win of the season.
