What won the race: Inheriting the lead following a wreck on lap 13 that eliminated three contenders, seventh-starting Jason Genco of Frewsburg, N.Y., held off Brad Wondering over the final 18 laps to win his first career RUSH tour victory. Genco pocketed $2,000 for his win at Genesee Speedway.

Quotable: "The car was good, but that's not how I wanted to win," said Grnco. "I hated to see that for (John) Waters and (Jeremy) Wonderling, but I think I had something for them. The car was excellent. I don't know if anyone remembers last year in the fall for the $3,000 (to-win race) I ran out of tires and Bryce (Davis) got me so I tried to learn from that. I was trying to ride in the middle of the race then that happened. Brady (Wondering) ran me clean and I appreciate that. I kept seeing him trying to dive in the bottom of turn one. I know how hard it is to pass so I figured if I just hit my marks then he wouldn't be able to get me.”

Key notes: John Waters took the lead ahead of polesitter Jeremy Wonderling at the start. … On a restart following a lap-12 caution second-running Jason Knowles got into the back of leader Waters, collecting Wonderling in the process. … Knowles was sent to the tail of the field, while Waters and Jeremy Wonderling went to the back after making stops. … Waters rallied back to finished fourth, while Knowles rallied back to finish sixth, his best finish of the season. … Genco joined Ross Robinson and Logan Roberson in becoming the season's third new first career RUSH tour winner. … Jeremy Wonderling set a new track record in qualifying with a lap of 17.160 seconds, breaking his own mark of 17.407 set last year. … After climbing the frontstretch wall and nearly getting upside down in his heat race, Canadian Adam Ferri went rallied from 22nd to ninth in the feature. … Brady Wonderling’s runner-up finish was a career-best with the RUSH tour.

On the move: Adam Ferri improved 13 positions after starting 22nd.
