Donaldson captured his 30th career Patch Cup series pole with a 28.398 second lap and also earned the fastest lap award during the race with a 28.350 second lap, but the race turned out to be about more than fast laps.

Speedy also led an incredible 87 laps in the 98 lap event, picked up 3 bonus points for leading at the end of the first segment and lapped the entire field by the end of the night. Team member ltfireman1604 picked up the hard charger and finished in second position as the first car one lap down. JessRathbun, making his first ARL start since 2015 finished third followed by Donaldson in fourth and Redimuss in fifth. In all, only 5 caution flags flew and most during the first half.
