In the 30-lap Late Model feature event, the outside line got bottled up as Joel Monahan was slow to come up to speed on the front row. Tyler Leary took the lead while Michael Wray moved into second, Tom Butler third, Michael Bennett fourth, and Kevin Gambacorta fifth after the bottleneck shuffled things in a hurry. Gambacorta spun through the infield on the frontstretch to bring the caution out with 3 laps complete.
Wray and Butler were locked in a side by side duel for the lead back under green with Bennett third, Wayne Coury, Jr. fourth and Tom Fearn fifth. Wray got clear to the lead on lap-6 with Bennett, Coury, and Fearn all moving up a spot as Butler fell back to fifth in line.
Fearn got around Coury to move into third on lap10 as Wray continued to lead Bennett at the front of the field. Fearn got around Bennett to move into second and he began to set sail after Wray, who had pulled out to a lead of several car lengths. The top-2 cars were pulling away from Bennett and Coury in third and fourth. Glen Reen did a 360 spin in turn 2 on lap-21 and quickly rejoined the action so the race stayed under green flag conditions. Fearn had caught Wray and he made his move for the lead on lap-23 with a pass in turn 2.
Fearn led Wray to the checkered flag for his sixth win of the season and his third consecutive win. Fearn is third on the all-time late model career win list at Stafford Speedway and Woody is next on his list at 40 wins.
Coury finished third, with Butler and Gambacorta rounding out the top-5.
