Heat race recap

Tyler Erb overcame several restarts and led all eight laps in winning the first heat race by 2.373 seconds over third-starting Blair Nothdurft, who prevailed after a back-and-forth battle with Mike Marlar. All three drivers punched their ticket into the 35-lap, $12,000-to-win main event. The night’s first yellow flag flew on the third lap when third-running Kyle Bronson lost a right-rear tire; Bronson continued to finish fifth after pitting. The second stoppage came on the ensuing restart when Tyler Millwood and Beckham Malone made contact coming out of turn two, sending Malone hard into the inside backstretch wall; he was OK but could not continue. The third and final caution came on the next restart attempt as Brenden Smith shed some debris after making contact with the frontstretch catch fence; Smith settled for fourth and will need to qualify through a consolation race. … Nick Hoffman earned a flag-to-flag victory in the second heat, leading the entire distance and winning by 2.998 seconds over fourth-starting Brandon Overton. Second-starting Brandon Sheppard held on for the third and final transfer spot into the night’s feature. Dallon Murty and Chase Junghans slipped by Bobby Pierce in the closing laps, relegating Pierce to finish sixth; all three drivers will need to qualify through a B-main. … Austin Smith led all the way from the pole in winning the third heat race by 0.126 of a second over third-starting Chris Madden, who trailed Smith all eight laps. Fourth-starting Sam Seawright took advantage of opening lap contact between Max McLaughlin and Jordan Koehler to grab the third and final transfer position. The McLaughlin-Koehler scrape sent Koehler up over the turn-four cushion before coming to a stop; Koehler appeared to escape major damage, but was parked for the night after making contact with McLaughlin under caution. McLaughlin continued to finish fifth. … Ricky Thornton Jr. cruised to win the fourth heat from the pole, taking the checkers 3.730 seconds ahead of third-starting Josh Rice, who pursued him the entire way. Tyler Bruening slipped by Tristan Chamberlain to grab third on the seventh lap, relegating Chamberlain to finish fourth. … Michael Leach commanded the fifth heat, leading from flag-to-flag and crossing the line 0.572 of a second ahead of third-starting Ryan Gustin. Frank Heckenast Jr. prevailed to finish third after a back-and-forth battle with Tim McCreadie, as Jake Timm slipped by McCreadie a lap later, relegating McCreadie to fifth. … Dan Ebert controlled all eight laps in the night’s sixth and final heat race, winning by 0.920 of a second over second-starting Cody Overton, as Max Blair held serve in rounding out the top-three finishers.
