The WISSOTA Modified feature event started with Schilling on the pole. As fast as the race had started, Duvall moved from starting from the fourth row to second place. Jed Moore, Chris Oertel, Kent Baxter had a good battle for the third position most of the race. Moore broke something in the right front and had to leave the track. The action also heated up between Schilling and Duvall after the caution flag came out with four laps to go. Schilling kept his car in the low grove and Duvall could not find his way around him.

The Northern Vintage Stock Cars made a special appearance to the Monster Hall Raceway. To many of the fans this brought back many enjoyable memories of races from the past.

The WISSOTA Midwest Mods had a rough time getting the show on the road. Caution after caution came out. Shane Halopka eventually was the winner. The race was limited due to time.

In the WISSOTA Street Stocks, Butch Kummer and Roger Walker started on the front row. Walker was about to make the pass for the lead around Kummer on the high side, but Jared Loos wanted in on lead also, when Walker spun out in corner four. That ended the night for Walker. On the restart, Loos and Kummer stayed low, but Cory Crasper and Rugg Lindner found the high grove moved faster around the track. Crasper took the lead and pulled away to capture another feature win followed by Linder, and Chris Crasper.

The WISSOTA Pure Stock Feature winner was Nate Hauge. Hauge started in the middle of the field, but by midway took the lead and never looked backed. Luke Lindner finished second, and Carolyn Nosser third. There was additional excitement added to the race when Stepen Altergott hit the wall in front of the grandstands, rolling over making a complete flip and right back on the tires.
