The night started out with Bobby Pierce,who debuted in his new Longhorn Chassis,would top the 48 entries in qualifying. The four heat race winners were Davenport,Alberson,Pierce,and Kyle Larson.
Alberson would lead the field to green but Pierce would quickly overtake the New Mexico resident for the race lead. Pierce and Davenport would battle before a caution slowed the field down on lap 26. When the green replaced the yellow JD would wrestle the lead away from Pierce. On lap 30 Pierce would bring out the caution ending his run for the night.
Davenport would cruise to the victory in front of Brandon Sheppard , who himself debuted a new Longhorn Chassis , and Ricky Weiss. The Landers Motorsports Longhorn is now eligible for the $300,000 bonus if he sweeps the rest of the races out at Vado which continues tonight on FloRacing. If he wins 5 of the remaining races he would pocket a $100,000 bonus and $25,000 if he pulls in victory lane 4 more times.
