Lapped traffic played a big part in the outcome as the front runners had to dice their way through the pack.

The evening started off with a new track record. Aaron Pierce in his family owned 26 machine established a new track record of 10.211. The previous record was held by Geoff Kaiser with a 10.414 back in 2006. Speaking of Kaiser, he drove a great race after starting deep in the field to take home the final podium finish behind Swanson and second running Jimmy McCune. Pierce took home the season championship for the 2011 HOSS season after his fourth place run.

An entertaining night at Sun Valley with a decent crowd on hand for a chilly night at the speedway.

Finish: 1)7s-Joe Swanson, 2)88-Jimmy McCune, 3)64-Geoff Kaiser, 4)26-Aaron Pierce, 5)8-Chris Neuenschwander, 6)37-Hank Lower.
Thanks
