Ryan Flores captured his seventh Indoor Auto Racing Series victory at Allentown's PPL Center with a thrilling late-race pass on Tommy Catalano. Starting from 12th position, Flores methodically worked his way through the field using the high line before making the decisive move with five laps remaining.

"It was a really challenging race; the track was tricky," said Flores. "We just worked on this thing all day and it definitely paid off."

Briggs Danner finished third after starting tenth in pursuit of a $4,500 bonus from Ironton Global. Anthony Sesely and Shawn Nye rounded out the top five. Danner had earlier secured the E. Schneider & Sons Fast Time Award with a lap of 7.795 seconds.

In supporting action, Missy Bootes thrilled the crowd with a last-lap pass to win the Champ Kart feature, while 13-year-old Paulie Hartwig prevailed in an exciting Slingshot main event after battling with Dylan Hoch through heavy traffic.
