Taking the lead on the second lap, Anthony Wagers of London led the rest of the way and went on to his third straight feature victory and fourth of the season in the WhiplashGear.com Pure Street Series.

After setting fast time of 15.150 in qualifications, Wagers started on the outside of the front row for the main event. He and polesitter Jason West of Williamsburg stayed side by side for the first lap of the quarter-mile paved oval, before Wagers managed to get his Wagers Auto Parts Camaro No. 17 in front.

The first caution came on the third lap, when Luke Carnes of Barbourville spun the Carnes Racing Camaro No. 16 in the third turn.

Wagers was inside on the double file restart, with West and the Quality Care Auto Service & Towing Camaro No. 35 outside of him.

He was steadily pulling away before the next caution flag came at 8 laps, when Carnes spun again and then pulled to the pits.

Through two more restarts, Wagers pulled away, and with the last 13 circuits of the 25-lap main event run under the green flag, he pulled away to a winning margin of 5.32 seconds over West.

Jim Martin of Keavy was third, driving the Quality Care Auto Service & Towing Camaro No. 34, with Lonnie Grubb of London fourth in the Moses Racing Camaro No. 11.

Fifth went to Kyle Parker of London and the Discount Tire Camaro No. 0, followed by Chris Smith of Williamsburg, Glenn Martin of Corbin in the Martin's Garage Camaro No. 59, and Ron Troxtell of Williamsburg with the Troy's Roofing Caprice No. 95.

Rounding out the finishing order on the basis of laps completed were James Jones of Corbin and the Martin's Garage Firebird No. 58, Wayne Jones of London in the Jones Trucking Camaro No. 88, Carnes, and Dale Jones of London driving the D&J Performance Camaro No. 18.

Jim Martin was the winner of the trophy dash and first heat, and Wayne Jones won the second heat race.
