The Racers of University of Northwestern Ohio resumed racing on July 18th after a three week break. The Racers picked up right where they left off as Boo Klenke and Logan Wyse both qualified for the A-Main event.

In their heat races, Boo Klenke started in 6th in his heat, and moved his way into third for his qualifying. Logan Wyse started 7th in his heat, and moved all the way up to first place in which he finished. It was the first UNOH victory of an event this summer.

All of this led up to the A-Main event for the night of racing. Logan Wyse began the event starting on the poll as he won his heat. The race didn't start off the way Klenke would like as he suffered a flat tire that ended his night of racing and finished 20th for the race. Wyse found himself in 3rd or 4th for most of the race. He crossed the finish line in 2nd, but unfortunately he was penalized at the end of the race for jumping the restart on lap 6 and had to go back 2 spots to finish the event in 4th place.
