Brad Sweet
A race that was supposed to serve as a preliminary event for the 61st annual National Open at Williams Grove Speedway ultimately followed that crown jewel race on Saturday night at Williams Grove Speedway after rain interfered with Friday night plans. All that was left to do after the conclusion of the National Open was to run the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series feature which was won by four-time and defending series champion Brad Sweet.
The Kasey Kahne Racing driver from Grass Valley, California scored the win on the track located in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania in a race shown live by DirtVision.com.

Feature Re-cap: Before the start of the 25-lap feature, scheduled third starter Rico Abreu suffered a flat tire and had to start the feature from the tail of the field.
When the main event took the green flag it was Courtney who took the lead but Sweet immediately began to challenge. Once into the top spot, Sweet took control of the race and maintained a somewhat comfortable working margin.
Macedo took second away from Courtney with two laps remaining and closed the gap on Sweet but was not able to get close enough to mount a series threat. In the end, it was Sweet who would take the checkered flag ahead of the pack.
