Rico Abreau took the lead from Brady Bacon on lap 12 of the UNOH A-Main event with the All Star Circuit of Champions and wheeled the Abreau Vineyards to the victory.
“It’s special to get the win on Mark’s home turf,” said Abreau about beating Mark Dobmeier. “I saw him down there once had to get my elbows up."
Dobmeier crossed the line in second ahead of Bacon. Tim Kaeding was fourth with Terry McCarl in fifth.
The race was red flagged with four laps to go when Austen Wheatley of Lake Stevens, Washington flipped in turn two. Wheatley was unharmed in the crash but the car was destroyed.
