Falbe slipped to third when Mike Taylor moved underneath him for second. The leaders ran nose to tail until lap 13 when Weishoff entered the top five, passing cars in the outside groove. Weishoff picked off two cars in one lap and charged alongside Falbe for third on lap 14. Two laps later, Weishoff got a good run and blew past Falbe and Taylor,
moving into second. Weishoff then set his sights on the leader, Scheel. Lap 19 saw Weishoff use the outside again to pull even with Scheel. Meanwhile, Dean Schultz was moving through traffic and into the top five. Schultz joined the war for the lead just as Weishoff cleared Scheel and took over the top spot. Schultz followed Weishoff around Scheel and the two began to pull away from the field. Schultz spent the final five laps looking for a way around Weishoff, but the opportunity never appeared as Weishoff crossed under the checkers first followed by Schultz, Jerry Eckhardt, Scheel and Taylor. Schultz also set quick time for the late models with a lap of 13.539 seconds.

Scottie Hatton and Terry Sauer took home wins in heat race action. Watertown's Bret Schmidt claimed the victory in the 30 lap street stock feature event. Tylor Schultz and Tony Showers made up row one at the start. Schultz gained the lead on lap two as Showers lost grip on the outside and slid back into the pack. Dennis Schwark lined up behind Schultz as the leaders ran single file until lap 12 when Schmidt entered the top five, moving into fourth. The first of two cautions flew on lap 14 for the spinning Dan Gosda, handing fifth to point leader Tim Syvrud. On the restart, Schmidt used the cone to
line up behind Schultz to the outside. Schmidt raced up beside Schultz, and the two competitors raced side by side until the final caution period on lap 18. Schmidt was scored as the leader with Schultz in second and Syvrud in third. Syvrud moved past Schultz on the restart and pulled up the rear bumper of Schmidt. But Schmidt had enough to hold off the point leader as he cruised the to checkers with Syvrud in tow. Rounding out the top five were Schultz, Brandon Riedner and Schwark. Syvrud owned fast time with a lap of 14.072 seconds. Heat winners included Schultz and Showers.

Alan Dorn of Waterloo capitalized on double points night for the hobby stocks as he took the win in the 20 lap feature event. Starting on the pole, Dorn took over the lead on lap two from Chet Paffel and was never seriously challenged. The second spot was shuffled between several drivers as the battle raged behind Dorn. Steven Sauer relinquished the spot to Andy Raley after getting loose and dropping back into the pack. Raley finally gave way to Jim Tate in the closing laps, all while Dorn controlled the race. Following Dorn and Tate across the line were Raley, Dustin Ward and Kyle Stark. Stark paced the field in qualifying with a 15.116 second lap while Ward claimed the heat race.

Stoughton's Kyle Watters won feature number five of the 2007 season in the 18 lap bandit event. Starting inside row seven, Watters sliced through the field and into the top five in three laps as the first caution flew on lap three. On the restart, Watters shot into third while Dennis Johnson held the lead. Two laps later, Watters was shadowing the leader while Gary Stark was trying to run them down. Watters charged to the lead on lap eight with Johnson second and Stark third. After the second caution on lap ten, Watters opened up a healthy advantage as Stark moved into second. With seven laps
remaining, Stark tried to catch Watters, but was unable to do so as Watters crossed the line in first followed by Stark, Jake Wasserburger, Stephen Scheel and Carlyn Voigt. With a lap of 15.865, Wasserburger held quick time while heat winners included Matt Reuter, Scheel and Wasserburger. Claiming the win in the semi feature was Kimberly Falk.

In wild and crazy back up action, Jim Remsik dominated the 8 lap feature to take the victory. Taking over the lead on lap two from Ryan Oetzel, Remsik drove away from the field as he cruised to the win followed by George Wachuta and Andy Ward.
