Pontoon Beach, IL (June 8, 2007) A large field of 143 racecars packed the pit area at Tri-City Speedway and provided some great racing action. Billy Faust of Lebanon, IL took the victory in the Super Late Model division. Bryan Collins took the lead at the drop of the green flag and led much of the event, but lapped traffic came into play and Billy Faust found the better line through traffic to wrestle the lead from Collins. Collins would take the second spot with Craig Smith charging from the eighth starting position to finish third. Rusty Griffaw would finish fourth with Mark Voigt rounding out the top five.

The modified division provided one of the best features ever on the new 3/8 mile track as Marty Smith, Jr. and Tim Hancock swapped the lead time after time and never touched each other. For several laps, Smith would take the lead in turns one and two, then Hancock would take it back in turns three and four. Smith found the right line in the final three laps and went on to take the win. Hancock would finish second. Kyle Byerline would edged Bobby Martintoni at the line for third and Jim Werner followed Martintoni across the line for fifth.

Nick Lyons of Centralia, IL won his third CARS Late Model feature event of the season at Tri-City Speedway. Lyons battled with Darin Walker for all twenty laps. Walker would settle for second. Danny Jolly put on a late race charge and made it a three-way battle up front in the final laps, but came up just short and took the third position. Ron Myers would finish with a nose out in front of Rylan Dagg for the fourth spot.

Richie Gabriel claimed the Street Stock main event. Gabriel had to hold off Josh Jackson at the end as Jackson could pull along side of Gabriel, but couldn't complete the pass. Andy Beavers took the third spot with Ricky Huebner finishing fourth and Jim Bell completing the top five.

Ryan Eilers took the win in the Factory Stock division as he bested the brothers of Rob & David Shaw who finished second and third. Justin Shaw would finish fourth with Joshua James completing the top five.
