Leading the charge in this round was the 2022 AMA National Sidecar champions Robert Curry & Laurie Curry who took the sidecar main event. The Curry's just nudged the team of Joe Jones and Johnny Glover for the main event win.

Billy Janniro won the scratch main event his, his fourth scratch main event of the season. Bart Bast, back from several weeks off because of an injury early in the season was second.

Timmy Dion had a great night winning the handicap main event and again Bast was second. Sammy Tetrault picked up his second main win of the season in the Division II program and John Gauthreaux won the Division III main event. In the Youth 250 division Levi Leutz from Southern California won the main event and Riley Rearick added another win to his season resume with a main event win in the Youth 150 program.
