Brian Norton came back to win the 25-lap A Main feature, after being off
two weeks with a back problem. The A main went caution free. A thrilling
last lap of the 15-lap B Main saw Jeff Kurzyniec taking the checkered flag.
The remainder of the field came across the line en masse, leaving the fans
at a lost as to who took second, third, etc., until it was announced. Again
there were no cautions. Brian Loucks held off hard charging Henry Bradley
(in his brand new car) for the win in the 10-lap C Main. The C main cars
had one caution for a spin, breaking tonight’s “no caution” streak in the
street stock division.
