Anderson Speedway
Aaron Pierce took home his fourth Glen Niebel Classic win on Sunday, the most ever, at Anderson Speedway.
Starting from the fourth position Pierce made contact with leader Donnie Adams Jr. with just over a 5th of the laps completed in the 100 lap event. Pierce would take over the lead with Adams Jr's day ending due to the incident.
Pierce did face a challenge from 2014 USAC Silver Crown champion Kody Swanson before his car slowed with 30 laps to go with engine issues. Pierce did not receive anymore serious challenges for the lead as he cruised to victory.
