Texas fans went home very happy as Buda, Texas driver, Colt James swept the entire program by winning the ARP Bodies/Aluminum Racing Products Fast Qualifier Award and then in the 200-lap Feature, he took the lead from Eddie Hoffman on lap 52 and went on to score the biggest Feature win of his career.

Charlie Menard, Michael Annett, Tom Smith, Tommy Grimes, and Travis Dassow rounded out the Top 10.
