The evening was cool but the action on the track was some of the hottest of the season. Rob Blair, Mike Knight, Boom Briggs, and Andy Boozel put on a show for the fans in the 25 lap Jay's Auto Wrecking super late model feature. Blair would lead all but the first two laps of the event to score his 7th Eriez Speedway of the Season.

Greg Oakes and Andy Boozel led the eighteen Jay’s Auto Wrecking Super Late Models to Spanky Hall’s green flags. After two first lap cautions Oakes led the first lap by half a car-length over Boozel while in turn four Doug Eck and Matt Lux got together with the end result that Lux spun and Eck was sent to the pits for his part in it. After discussion with Lux, it was agreed that the cars had been hooked together and Eck was deemed not at fault and therefore allowed to continue.

After a lap of green flag racing fifth starting Robbie Blair came by the leaders, leading lap three. Boozel and Mike Knight were second and third by the end of five laps but Blair was enroute to his fifth consecutive win and seventh overall at Eriez.

Boozel and Knight raced side by side with Knight getting by for second at lap twelve. With fourteen complete Boom Briggs got by Boozel for third. Using the extreme high side Knight was able to drive up next to Blair in turn three but was unable to gain the advantage.

With five laps to go Blair was again opening his lead while Briggs and Boozel were swapping third. Blair won with a margin of four car-lengths over Knight, Briggs, and Boozel. Pole-sitter Oakes was fifth at the checkers.
