In the 20-lap SK Light feature event, there was 3-wide at the front right from the start as Todd Douillard took the point. At the end of the first lap, several cars went into the turn 1 wall to bring the caution out including Rit Dulac, Wesley Prucker, Geoff Boisjolie.
Douillard took the lead on the restart, but he didn’t make it back to the stripe as the leader as D.J. Burnham streaked into the lead on the backstretch. Douillard spun in turn 2 after contact with Stephen Kopcik but he was able to get going and the race stayed green. Tony Membrino, Jr. went by Burnham to take over the lead on lap-3 and the caution then came out as Douillard spun again in turn 2.
Membrino continued to lead back under green with Burnham in second. Jay Goff was third, with Kyle Jette right on his bumper in fourth. The top-4 had pulled away from Payton Henry in fifth. Right behind Henry was Kopcik, Vinny Anglace, and Joey Ferrigno. Kopcik got around Henry for fifth on lap-8 while Membrino was starting to pull away from Burnham in the fight for the lead.
Jette was all over Goff’s bumper in the fight for third with Kopcik closing in to make it a three-car fight, but Goff was able to hold Jette off. Lap after lap Jette would take a look to Goff’s inside but he couldn’t carry enough speed to complete the pass. While Goff and Jette were fighting hard for third, Ferrigno had closed the gap to the three cars and it was now a four car fight for third.
Membrino led Burnham to the checkered Source P/R Dept. Stafford Speedway
