Blackwell Construction/Dane Elliott Industrial/Wilson’s Printworks/Mark Bush Racing sponsored #15 Bandit Race Car powered by a Tucker’s Performance Race Engine.
Two early cautions for spins by Dustin Mounce would slow the start, but once underway, Clayton Miller would grab the race lead and once he entered traffic around the midpoint of the race, Chad Kinder would close in and pressure Miller, but to no avail, as Miller would keep Kinder at bay and score the victory in the event. Kinder would finish in the second position, while Lance Dehm would join that pair on the podium with a third place finish. Hard charger award winner Tyler Nicely would start 17th and finish in the fourth position, with Jay Ledford completing the top five.
The remainder of the top ten at the completion of the Farmer City Raceway A-Main would be Lucas Lee, Mike McKinney, Vince Cooper, Josh Harris, and Jacob Poel. The 30 lap, $2,064 to win event would be slowed by two caution flags.
