Belleville, IL.

Starting the sixth night of POWRi sanctioning, IMRA would find Ruben Haslett and Shane Morgan each notch heat racing wins with Russell Johnston gaining the pole-starting grid for the feature event.

Green flag feature racing would find Tracy Hull clinching the front of the field as the checkers waived on the feature laps to earn the Peoria Speedway feature event return with Shane Morgan gaining a solid runner-up showing.
