Hagerstown Speedway had their annual Octoberfest 350 ran, as the top four dirt racing divisions, big block modifieds, small block modifieds, super late models, and 410 sprints took on the 1/2 mile for $10,000 to win each division. In the big block modifieds, it was Brett Hearn who held off an exciting late race charge by J.R. Heffner to claim the $10,000 prize, Heffner finished second, rounding out the top 5 were Pat Ward, Ryan Godown, and Jimmy Horton.
In the small block portion of Octoberfest, Frank Cozze took the early lead from Brett Hearn, but was sent to the rear for tampering with the right rear tire during the lap 50 fuel stop. Cozze opted to retire from the event after that point. Tim McCreadie took advantage of Cozze's misfortune to go on to dominate the 100 lap feature and claim that $10,000 top prize, MeMe DeSantis finished second, Billy Pauch Jr, Billy Decker, and Jeff Strunk rounded out the top 5.
Also, the BRP Modified Tour invaded Lernerville Speedway for their season finale, as part of Steel City Stampede Weekend. Alan Johnson started 20th on the 21 car field, and made a charge and challenged for the lead late in the race, but it was Del Rougeux who went on to collect the feature win. Johnson finished second, rounding out the top 5 were Jeremiah Shingledecker, Joe Crawford, and Rex King. With King's 5th place finish, it allowed him to claim the BRP Tour championship.
Also, Albany-Saratoga Speedway saw the big block modified make their first start on the black top. Matt DeLorenzo dominated the feature and picked up the win. Promotor Bruce Richards announced that the track will remain asphalt, and also Devils Bowl Speedway will also be asphalt in 2010.
