In a field of 39 cars, Sanders logged a fifth place finish in his heat race, sending him into the B-Main. Coming in third, Rodney locked into the 17th-starting position for the $3,000-to-win A-Main. Falling one spot shy of a Top-5 finish, Rodney Sanders advanced through the field 11 spots to place sixth.

Returning on Saturday afternoon for another $3,000-to-win A-Main, Rodney gained four spots in his heat to place second behind Chris Henigan. Starting on the pole, Sanders dropped four spots to register a fifth-place finish behind Hunter Marriott, Dereck Ramirez, Zack VanderBeek, and Jason Hughes.
