LIMA — Limaland Motorsports Park played host FAST Friday Night presented by the Stolly Insurance Group.

The JLH General Contracting FAST 305 Sprint Cars kicked off the night with Jamie Miller and No. 99 Alvin Roepke on the front row for the 25 lap feature. Miller took a seven-car length lead right away. On lap 13, Roepke benefited from the lapped traffic and grabbed the lead, while No. 77i John Ivy made his way to the third spot after starting 12th. On a restart following a caution, Miller got past by Roepke for the lead. On lap 19, No. 66 Chase Dunham got into the turn 4 wall, ending up upside down. Dunham walked away under his own power. On the final restart, Miller was able to get away for good over a hard charging Ivy who finished second, Roepke finished 3rd with No. 21 Dustin Stroup and No. 29 Bryan Sebetto completing the top 5. Heat races were won by Ivy, No. 29 Bryan Sebetto and No. 4* Tyler Street.

Next up were the K&N Filters UMP Modifieds in their 20 lap A Main. UNOH Racer Will Norris in the UNOH No 71 and No. 3W Dylan Woodling led the field to the green flag, with Norris grabbing the early advantage. Woodling, No. 20K Bill Keeler and No. 45P Brian Post would fall in line. Post moved into third on lap 3, and set his sights on Woodling and Norris. Post took the lead for good on lap 7. Heat races were won by Woodling, Norris, and Post.

Completing the night were the Budweiser Thunderstocks. No. 7W Dan Wooten and No. 7B Shawn Valenti brought the field to green in the 15 lap A feature. Valenti took the early lead with several cautions keeping the field bunched up until a final green flag run on lap 10 saw Valenti hold off a charging No. 463 Daniel Sanchez. Heat races were won by Sanchez, No. 15 Jordan Conover and Valenti.
