Exciting the audience members in Fort Worth Texas on the initial green-flag start with high-point qualifier Hafertepe and Noah Gass lined up in the front row as Hafertepe gained the lead on the opening lap with Gass, Carson McCarl, Kyle Jones and Joe B. Miller chasing.

It feels pretty special to be up here and celebrate with my son as he gets old enough to enjoy it, said Hafertepe. The car was fast all night and we were able to keep speed as the laps ticked away. Now we get to try to repeat tomorrow night.
