In the 40-lap SK Modified® feature event, the race started with the P1 position left vacant for Ted Christopher. Tony Membrino, Jr. took the lead at the green with Josh Wood immediately applying heavy pressure. As the field hit turn 3, several cars came together and set off a chain reaction that collected Rowan Pennink, Todd Owen, Dan Avery, and Chase Dowling that brought the caution out with 0 laps complete.
The field took the green with Joey Mucciacciaro, Jr. sliding into the turn 1 wall to bring the caution right back out. Membrino took the lead back under green but he was under heavy pressure as Tyler Hines went to his outside and Wood was looking to his inside. Hines went to the lead on lap-3 with Membrino and Ronnie Williams side by side for second. Membrino took second with Williams now side by side with Matt Galko for third and behind then Glen Reen and Eric Berndt were side by side for fifth place. Tom Bolles spun coming out of turn 4 to bring the caution out with 9 laps complete.
Hines and Membrino went side by side for the lead on the restart with Hines taking the lead and Membrino began to slide backwards. Hines held the lead until lap-13 when Williams took the lead. Keith Rocco was on the move after the restart and he quickly worked his way into second behind Williams. Rocco took the lead from Williams on lap-18 while Reen moved up to third with Hines fourth and Wood fifth as the field completed lap-20.
Rocco started to pull away from Williams in second who was in turn pulling away from Reen, Stephen Kopcik, and Hines. Rocco led Williams to the white flag with Kopcik third, Reen fourth, and Hines in fifth. The entire field pulled down pit road after taking the white flag with Stafford Speedway announcers Ben Dodge and Matt Buckler calling Ted Christopher home as the winner.
