After starting his heat race in seventh, the defending NLRA champion moved up to fourth, missing the transfer spot by one position.

Seng was ready for his B-main as he started on the pole and picked up the win. That put Seng in the 20th starting spot in the feature for the 25-lap season finale. He made quick work of the field to finish in the ninth spot, giving him the edge on Brody Troftgruben for the runner-up in NLRA points.

The following night was qualifying for the big race, the 92-lap, $9,200-to-win John Seitz Memorial. After moving up one spot in his heat race to finish eighth, that put Brad in a B-Main for championship night on Saturday.
