It was an action-packed night at Valley Speedway as five classes took to the dirt and delivered another thrilling evening of grassroots racing.
The Valley E-Mods kicked off the program with an exciting feature. After a chaotic start, Rayce Martin mounted a strong challenge to chase down early leader Cole Ryun. Despite the pressure, Ryun held his ground and captured his first feature win of the 2025 season. Martin crossed the line in second, followed by Drew Hilt, Nick Dangerfield in fourth and Emme Ryun completed the Top 5.
