The pure stock race also had some of the best racing action. The class continues to grow in size and popularity. Many cars are under construction for this class. These cars are the same type of cars that can be run in multiple tracks across south Texas. This race like all the other involved side by side racing, contact, and a ton of aggressive driving. It is somewhat of a rookie class so that tends to happen.

The street stock race was one of the more competitive races of the night. The lead of the race changed hands a couple of times and the battle for second on back was worth the price of admission alone. The battle really heated up when the 11 car of Boggs broke while leading coming out of turn four. Don Lewis took the win in his #51 purple machine.

The IMCA Modified show was a great race as usual. It closed out the racing night at the speedway. The race was filled with caution flags. Many of the cautions were do to spin out by the drivers. The lead of the race was a place that would prove to be bad luck. P J Egbert in the 707 car pulled off track while leading and loaded the car on the trailer. The 89 car of Steven Whiteaker Jr appeared to lose the entire left front wheel assembly coming out of turn two. South Texas racing legend Lawrence Miklencak would take home the victory. The 9 car of Brandon Baylock would fight back from an early race spin and come home second.
