  With 36 PRW IMCA modifides in the house positioning in the "b" would be at a premium as only 8 cars outside the top twelve in points would have a shot to make the feature

In the first heat Johnny Deyoung Jr.would pull out to a large early lead and hold on to win over Brody Bowser and Jerry Hunt. In heat two patience paid off for Chad Mauer who was on top over Josh Borton and Tim Tuttle. In the third heat Myron Deyoung made his way around George Weese and would not look back. Wease held on to second and Dan Wiggins was third while in the final heat it was the Portland, Mi native Buzz Lawrence victorious over Armond Holley and Ken Zeigler. With two twelve lap last chance races, and only four moving on from each, all of the competitors in these races would have one goal in mind, put as much distance as they can between them and the one behind them. Josh Borton was able to do just that in the first race as he was able to hold off Tim Tuttle and Clifford Denman. In the final LCQ of the night Milt Montgomery, Johnny Deyoung Jr, and Dan Wiggins made up the top three. For the 25 lap feature Brody Bowser would start on the front row and lead the first third of the race while Jerry Hunt and Paul Grosnickle would work on finding a way around him. As laps would go by it was obvious that the strongest competition that bowser would see would be the defending champion AJ Ward and championship contender Chad Wernette. Bowser took the green flag with five laps to go an Wernette dove to the bottom. Securing the spot going into turn 1, Chad would hold on and take home the checkered flag over Bowser and AJ Ward rounding out the top three.
