On Wednesday evening after Mother Nature axed Tuesday’s program, Alberson was forced to take a provisional into the feature after falling short of a transfer spot in his heat and B-Main. With $7,000 on the line, Garrett improved 12 spots in the 40-lapper to finish 16th.
For another $7,000-to-win A-Main on Thursday, Garrett came in fourth in his heat before picking up a 10-lap consolation victory. Rolling off 20th for the feature, Alberson passed six cars to register a 14th-place finish.

The following night, Alberson followed up a fifth-place finish in his heat with a runner-up finish in his B-Main. Wheeling his way into the Top-10 in the feature, Garrett gained 16 positions in the 40-lap affair to register an impressive seventh-place finish.

For the finale on Saturday, Garrett secured his spot into the $15,000-to-win A-Main with a second-place finish in his heat. After getting caught in a multi-car tangle on lap 35, Alberson salvaged a 13th-place finish in the 50-lapper.
