Roger Long proved once again that he is the master of the high groove Friday night. The evening started out with Long turning in fast time of 13.200 over the 32 other drivers in attendance. Justin Allgaier then won the trophy dash over Eric Kwasigroh and Long. Heats went to Steve Sheppard Jr over Lonnie Franklin Jr, Mark Anderson over Chris Dick and Joe Ross Jr over Gary May. Jr Shickel won the semi feature over nephew Flip Shickel, Chris Dick and brother Eddy Shickel.
Long, by virtue of the draw, started outside front row of the feature and took off to a commanding leave. Pole sitter Eric Smith ran him down at lap 18 using the low groove, and passed Long, but two laps later, Long retook the lead and once again ran off from everyone. finish: 36 Roger Long, 9 Eric Smith, 47 Steve Hillard, 18K Eric Kwasigroh, 45 Gary May, S10 Jr Shickel, 1A Justin Allgaier, 15 Joe Ross Jr, 4 Mike Mullvain, 16A Ed Dixon, 45 Don Hammer, T2 Todd Bennett, 25 Jason Fegers, 5s Steve Sheppard Jr, 22 Chris Dick, 1w Donnie Waldon.
Jeff Leka once again won the modified feature over a fast flying Rocky Griffin, Don Kiger and Jerry Huffman
