Key notes: Pierce scored his first career Florence victory, the 18th on his 2015 season. ... The first yellow waved on the first lap for a tangle in turns one and two involving Jesse Lay, Rod Conley and Jerry Gibson Jr. … Jason Jameson drew a caution on lap two when he slowed in turns three and four with a left-rear flat. … A yellow flew on the fourth lap for debris on the racing surface. … Trevor Landrum spun in turns three and four to draw a caution on lap 22. ... Because of rain and forecasts for more wet weather, track officials were forced to push Saturday's $5,000-to-win program to Sunday afternoon. ... Jason Feger was the winner of Friday's $2,000-to-win weekend opener; he finished fourth. ... Kyle Strickler swept American Modified Series weekend action.
