It was opening night of the two night event. The Open Wheel Modified were going to take center stage for a huge $5,100 to win event on Saturday.
The Classic Car division were up first for their 20 lap feature. Shaun Sise would take the lead on the start over last winner Mac Lockhart, Logan Dukes, Mark Sise and Jimmy Rayhuff. The battle for the runner up spot was on as Lockhart tried to fiend off Dukes in the opening laps. Chase King was making his first start in the Classic Cars and was on a charge from the tail of the pack until he went for a spin in turn two bringing out the caution. Back under green and Dukes had taken over the runner up spot and has his eyes set on Sise for the lead of the race. After his spin, King was on a drive moving back up into the top five.

Up next would be the 20 lap 602 Late Model feature. Lee Branch was supposed to start on the front row but would elect to start at the rear for reasons unknown. The green waved and it was Dustin Bunch who would take over the lead with Curtis Thomas, Bailey Cardwell and Adam Mitchell in chase. Trouble would find the #71 of Dawson Lowe as he went for a spin in the opening laps. Back under green and it was a hot battle for the lead as Thomas was working over Bunch for the lead. Thomas would power into the lead bringing Adam Mitchell with him. Baily Cardwell seemed to be on a charge in the second half of the race but would slow in the closing laps with mechanical issues.

Pierce McCarter and Henry would have a great battle in the opening laps for the fourth spot. Mack McCarter clearly hit the setup just right on his #51 as he powered past Teague into the lead just three laps in. Rusty Ballenger has had one of the best 604 seasons in 2021 and was working on another top five as he tried to reel in Teague for the runner up spot.

The B-Hobby/Super Street race may have been a little short on car counts but that didn’t mean they wouldn’t put on a fantastic show for the fans. Pete Wright would lead us to green with Brian Hamby, Brady Lee and Brian Williams in chase. Hamby and Wright had a run in while battling at Crossville a few weeks ago and they would once again battle hard early in this one. Right in their tire tracks was Brady Lee who threw his name in the mix for the win. The three put on a great show as they fought for the top spot. Hamby seemed to be losing some steam in his #32 as Lee would take the second spot away. Lee was on a rail as he quickly chewed up the lead Wright had built up. The high line was the money line for him as his #31 was a rocket up top. The two would come to the finish line in a near photo finish with Wright getting the win.
1: #51X Pete Wright
2: #31 Brady Lee
3: #32 Brian Hamby
4: #38 Brian Williams
