Another great night of racing at the Monster Half Mile, complete with 24 Boss Sprints, 15 Rush Late Models, 16 Sportsman cars, 10 Hobby Stocks, 9 Open 4-Cylinders, and 2 Young Guns. In the Boss feature, Vinnie Daugherty (27) took a wild ride out over the 2nd turn wall on lap 2. He was able to walk to the ambulance on his own, but I believe he was taken to the hospital, nothing was mentioned as to the extent of any injuries he might have.The action at the front of the pack was fast and furious after that. Justin Owen (4J) had built up a rather commanding lead when the caution again waived on lap 9. On the ensuing restart, he was dogged by Mike Miller (82), and after a few laps, by the surging Dustin Smith (77), but still maintained the lead up until the caution waived again on lap 17. Miller was able to make the pass in the second turn after the restart, and a few laps later Smith moved into second, and was right on Miller's tail the rest of the way.

In the Rush Late Models, Justin Lamb made it into the lead from his 6th place starting spot in a few laps and built a sizeable lead over the rest of the field. After several more laps, Daryl Charlier pulled into second spot, but did not seem to be gaining on Lamb, and by this time John Mollick had motored into third. Following a restart for after a caution for Paul Jablonski on lap 12, Charlier took the lead, and Mollick dropped into second, shuffling Lamb back to 3rd. After several laps of very close racing, Mollick made the pass in turn 2, and went on for the win.
