Russell Farr III (99), Derrick Counter (75), and Trevor Hulbert (17h) battle for a top ten spot through turn four as they went three wide. It would be time for the 60th season anniversary to get underway at the Devil's Bowl Speedway. There would be 6 divisions in action on the night but the main attraction would be the first ever apperance of the Dirtcar 358 Modified Series as they would go 60 laps and the winer taking home $5,000 also in action on the evening would be the Sunoco Sportsman Modified, O'Reily Auto Parts Limited Sportsman Modified, Hoosier Tire Novice Sportsman Modified, Friend Construction 500cc Mini Sprints and the Fisher Auto Parts Mini Stocks. After all the heat racing and qualifying were done, the first main of the season would be the Friend Construction 500cc Mini Sprints for 20 laps. It would see Tyler Whittemore get the lead off the start of the race, but it would be short-lived, as Scott Bachand would soon take the top spot, and, from there, wouldn't be touched, capturing the first win of the season. Then it would be time for the Sunoco Sportsman Modified Shootout, 20 laps, $1,000 to win, and it would see Justin Comes start on the pole, and he would not be bumped off the top spot even though he would have a challenge for the lead from Josh Sunn, but Comes would hold on and cash in the $1,000 and get his season started right. Then it would be time for the main event of the evening with the first-ever showing of the Dirtcar 358 Modified Series at the Devil's Bowl Speedway in the King of the Clay for 60 laps and $5,000 to the winner. It would see Tim Fuller jump out to the lead. Still, he would have challenges from Alex Payne and Matt Williamson, and on a restart around lap 20, Matt Williamson would pinch Fuller low and drive by him on the top to take the lead, and from there he would go on to win and take the $5,000 check. Still, he would have a stiff combination from Alex Payne for the win. This would be the second stop on the tour, and Mike Mahaney would take the points lead by 2 over Alex Payne as they head into the third round on May 14th at the Airborne Park Speedway. Then we would have the O'Reilly Auto Parts Limited Sportsman Modified for 25 laps, with an early race battle between Michael Danforth and Logan Denis. Eventually, Denis would get around him for the lead, and he would ride that to the checkered flag, but he would have some late-race heat from Gary English. Then it would be onto the Fisher Auto Parts Mini Stocks, which, due to having 32, would be split into two features, and in the first one, it would be a family affair for most of the night between father and son, Jeremy Brownell Sr. and Jr., and on this night, the win would go to the father. Then the second feature would feature a battle between Kaleb Shepard and Damien Olden, but in the end, Kaleb Shepard would win. Then it would be time for the final race of the night in the Hoosier Tire Novice Sportsman Modified, and it would see Robert Steves go wire-to-wire for the win.

The winner of the third stage would be Tyler Whittemore. Still, by virtue of a second-place finish, Gage Provencher secured the overall win, scoring points due to a fifth-place finish in the first segment, a third-place finish in the second segment, and a second-place finish in the last segment. Then, making only their second appearance at the Devil's Bowl Speedway, the Renegades would battle it out, and Josh Bussino would lead the race wire to wire for the win. Still, all the excitement would come in victory lane when he would propose to his long-term girlfriend, and she said yes.

Brian Blake would be the eventual winner. Then it would be time for the one we had been waiting for all weekend, as it would be the running of the 8th Fabian Vermont 200 for the Sunoco Sportsman Modified. The question coming into the race would be: would anyone have anything for Matt Janczuk, as he had won the last two? There would be 69 cars entering the event for their shot at the $10,000 prize. We would be taking 38 to the main event, so qualifying would be intense throughout the day, starting with Time Trails. With that being the case, everyone would be after the fastest time in Time Trails. Matt Janczuk would set the fastest time with a 19.125 and take the $200 bonus from Bill McGaffin Photography. Then it would be on to the heats, and we would take the top three from the six heats to the main event. The rest would be headed to the Consis, and the winners of the heats would be Matt Janczuk, Jim Nagle, Brent Warren, Dave Camara, Kevin Chafee, and Derrick McGrew Jr. Then, there would be three Consis. We would take the top 4 to give us 30 for the main event, but the rest would have one more chance to get in the big show through one of the two B Mains. However, the winners of the Consolations would be Cody McPherson, Payton Talbot, and Marty Kelly III. Then it woud be onto the B Mains where the remaining 39 cars would be split in to two B Mains where the top 2 would make the show giving us 34 cars in the main and transfering from them would be Tanner Siemons Nick Heywood, Tony Finch and Max Dolliver and there would be four provisions handed out to Gary English, Vince Quenneville, Adam Piper and Nick Zielinski. Then we would finally have our 38 cars for the Fabian Vermont 200, and it would see Donovan Lussier get the lead off the start. Aj Munger would stick his nose in there and lead a couple of laps, but Donovan Lussier would take most of the first half of the event. Although Brian Calabrese would challenge him, he would also lead for a significant portion of the event. Then there would be a challenge from Matt Janczuk, and Lussier would hold him off until he meets an opponent's tire, and Janczuk would take the lead. Over the last thirty or so laps, there would be a challenge from Payton Talbot, as he was looking for the double after winning the 358 Modifieds the day before. However, in the end, Matt Janczuk would hold on and take home his third straight Fabian Vermont 200. The $10,000 rounding out the field would be Payton Talbot and Cody McPherson.
