Race Notes: 4th staring Derek Ramirez got the jump on the field after a lap one caution and flew off to the lead, while his teammate Jon Tesch was locked in a great battle with Mike Hanson and Eric Turner throughout the early stages of the event. Meanwhile, back in traffic, one of the best Modified races of the season was unfolding as the pack was racing three and four wide for position. Tesch ran down Ramirez for the lead and the teammates ran side by side for multiple circuits while Hanson and Turner were swapping the third spot back and forth. 14th starting Jeremy Payne and 15th starting Terry Phillips were quickly moving through traffic and were locked in battle for the final transfer spot as the laps wound down. Tesch took the lead for good near the end and held off Ramirez for the win to earn the pole position for Sunday's $15,000 to win main event. Ramirez ran second with Turner and Hanson third and fourth respectively. Phillips nipped Payne on the final lap for the fifth and final transfer spot.

Race Notes: Jeremy Payne proved tonight that you really can 'come home again' after returning to his hometown of Tucson, AZ and dominating the 40-lap $15,000 to win Wes Hurst Memorial. Payne but his teeth racing in Tucson and although he has not been a resident of the Arizona city for the past 7 or so years, he showed no signs of having missed a beat as he jumped from the front row and lead all 40-laps withstanding early pressure from Jon Tesch and then being forced to hold off his teammate Terry Phillips for the win. Phillips and Tesch swapped second multiple times during the feature event, which was held after a 2+ hour rain delay. The track was lightning quick and the event lasted just under 25mintues from start to finish. 9th starting Jason Hughes and 11th starting Rodney Sanders rounded out the top five finishers in the richest Modified race in the country in 2009.
