Laird International Raceway has just three race nights left for this season following Thursday's full show.

The Modified Division saw a clean sweep by Rick Ellis after Jordan Sims won the feature race but did not pass through tech following the action. Ellis took top spot while Dennis Uhlman took second. Ellis finished the night with first place finished in both heats as well as the fast car dash. David Slingsby and Kevin Oicle split the second-place finishes in the heats while Nick Jobst finished second in the dash.

In the Late Model Division Rod Bolduc won the feature over Chris Furkey and Jason Praysner and also took home top spot in the fast car dash, which saw Jeremy Van Hoek finish second. Nick Guerriero won both heat races with Furkey finishing second in the heats as well.

In the Factory Stock Division, John Hamilton won the feature over John Fragale and also won the first heat race, holding off Mike Grigg for the victory. Fragale won the second heat over Rita-Ann Varcoe and Cody MacLean edged out Hamilton for the victory in the fast car dash.

In the Stock Four Division Chris Humphrey won the feature race beating out John Gardner and Mike Baraluk for the victory. Brandon Penno won the B-Main feature while Tyler Parsons, Humphrey, and Gardner won the three heat races. Generally run with four heat races, a smaller car count allowed the division to run three heats with the top six finishers getting into the A-Main feature instead of the usual four heats with the top four cars getting through.
