Keith Porter/Richard Smazal (#180) does battle with the team of Ed Wolf/Jim Maurer (#13) in a 2-Man Cruiser Heat race.  The team of Porter and Smazal won the feature contest later in the evening.

The WISSOTA Midwest Modifieds were first to pull trackside with Mickey Nosser and Mike Molitor setting the pace for the event. Nosser took control of the early lead while Dave Salzman, Richardson, Joe Bablick and Shane Halopka all battled over the runner-up position. Richardson was able to break away from the pack and set his sights on Nosser who had a two car length advantage out front.

The third position was still up in the air however, as Salzman, Bablick, Bargender, Halopka and Poyda ran in a tight pack trying to chase down the leaders. After a lap 12 caution, Richardson went to the high side to make the pass for the lead on Nosser who then pulled off due to mechanical problems. Richardson was able to hold on for the remaining laps to get the win in a rare appearance at the track. Bargender had a solid run from the fourth row to finish second. Poyda came across the line third after a late race battle with Halopka. Jerome Kowalski had to work his way from deep in the field to finish fifth.

Todd Heier and Jim Marshall filled out the front row for the WISSOTA Street Stock Feature. Heier pulled out front to lead the first lap, but had Cory Crapser and Brock Wright on his back bumper looking for the lead. Marshall and Curt Bogdonavic battled over the fourth position while Loos and Lindner closed in and made it a four car battle. Out front, Heier continued to hold the lead while Cory Crapser worked the inside groove looking for an opening to make the pass. Crapser finally got the opening he was looking for and took over the lead with four laps remaining. Meanwhile, Wright fought to hold off Lindner and Roger Walker for third. Crapser held off a last lap charge from Heier to get his third win of the season. Wright had a strong run up front and finished third ahead of Lindner. The "Hard Charger" of the race was Roger Walker who came from a sixth row starting spot to finish fifth.

Lance Leu got a good jump at the start of the WISSOTA Super Stock Feature to claim the early lead. Scott Johnson ran a car length behind, while Mark Stender held on to third. The best battle on the track was for fourth between Terry Gorst, Jim Willner and Paul Erickson who ran door to door for the majority of the race. Out front, Leu was able to stretch his lead to nearly a straightaway by the time the checkers flew. Behind Leu however, there was a  pack of five cars running nose to tail with Johnson leading the way in the second position. Stender picked up a heat win earlier in the program and finished off the night with a solid third place finish. Gorst fought off several advances from Willner to finish fourth.

Scott Vesley and Roger Andres led the field to the green flag in the 20 lap WISSOTA Modified Feature. Andres took the early lead while Jeff Spacek worked his way around Rob Genett for the runner-up spot. Spacek immediately began closing on Andres and made the pass on the low side with five laps complete. Spacek was then able to put nearly a straightaway between himself and Genett. The man on the move was Oertel who worked his way from the fifth row to challenge Genett for second. Oertel made the pass on Genett just before a lap 18 caution closed him in on the back bumper of Spacek for the two lap dash for the win. Spacek held on to take the win after dominating much of the race. Oertel climbed from deep in the field to finish second Genett ran up front all night and finished strong in third. Dave Baxter picked up several positions on his way to a fourth place finish ahead of Mike Bauer.
