J.P. Dowell, No. 95k, mentioned that he had not been to Heart O' Texas Speedway very often. Maybe he should. After he took the lead, about half way throught the 25-lap feature, there was no catching him. He ran away from the field. The real race was for second between Keith Green, No. 5, Keith White, No. 1, and William Gould, No. 60. They swapped positions, but eventually settled on that order. Jarrod Jennings, No. 98j, was fifth. There were 19 modifieds in the feature.

Not a Gould weekend: William Gould, No. 60, the current IMCA Lone Star Series Modified points leader, wrecked Saturday night at Kennedale Speedway Park. They worked all night to get the car ready for Heart O' Texas Speedway Sunday night. In the heat race he blew his engine. In less than an hour Gould was up and running again. Starting on the rear, he ended up fourth in the feature. Gould deserved a hard charger award.

A whole new meaning to the term 3-wide.
