Stage‑by‑Stage Action
Connor Zilisch seized Stage 1, while Jake Garcia claimed the Stage 2 pit‑exit race, only to watch Connor Zilisch lead the field back onto the track. In the final stage, Stewart Friesen dominated the pit‑exit segment, but it was Layne Riggs who capitalized on the ensuing chaos to take the stage win and the overall checkered flag.
The race was punctuated by multiple cautions, with incidents involving Landen Lewis, Christopher Bell and Gavan Boschele bringing the field back under yellow several times and reshuffling momentum.
When the dust settled, the final standings placed Layne Riggs in first, Chandler Smith in second and Kaden Honeycutt in third, rounding out a competitive top‑three.
Riggs’ victory underscored a dominant performance throughout the weekend, highlighting the unpredictable nature of short‑track racing where strategy, timing and a bit of luck can define the outcome.
