LA FARGEVILLE, N.Y. – Jordan Kelly would lead a caution-free Whitesboro Plow Shop DIRTcar 358 Modified field to the checkered flag to bring home his first feature win at Can Am Speedway.
Cameron Black and Kelly paced the competitive field to the green flag.Â

Shaw would take the second spot after a great battle with Scott Webb, Derek Webb and Billy Dunn. The race would go caution-free as Kelly remained in control while Shaw’s charge to the lead would slow as he found himself in a battle with Dunn, who came from 9th on the grid to challenge for the second spot.
With no cautions, a fast race track and a strong car, Jordan Kelly would finally achieve something he has wanted for a long time, as he scored his first ever DIRTcar 358 Modified feature win at Can Am. Shaw would finish a career best second over Dunn, Derek Webb and Ryan Bartlett.
The Donath Motorworx Limited Sportsman took three tries to get their 12 lap feature underway. Keegan Nier was looking to put the bad luck from the previous two weeks behind him, as he led early over Joe Trichilo and Owen Nier.
Keegan Nier was fast but Paul DeRuyter was charging forward and looking to score his 4th win in a row. DeRuyter got to second but still had ground to make up on the race leader as the laps clicked off.
