Polesitter Tom Miller led the field to green only to see a large 14 car pile-up unfold and bring our red flag. Eight cars from the front of the field where out of the race before lap 1.  On the restart Zack Steffy moved into the lead only to see another tangle bring out a red flag and eliminate three cars. On the next restart it was Kaitlyn Bailey moving into the lead and being pursued by Jesse Landis.   Jesse Landis moved into the lead and drove to his first checkered flag of the 2025 season.  Kaitlyn Bailey and Zack Steffey posted strong 2nd and 3rd place finished respectively.  

Heat race winners for the 42 car sportsman field were Ebby Ridge (from 1st); Tom Miller Jr (1); Parker Guldin (2); Brad Brightbill (from 2).

 Mike Stofflet ( from 2nd) and Nathan Mohr (from 1st) won their consolation races.
