Nicolas Naugle secured a commanding victory in the third annual Bigley Tune-Up 125, outperforming a competitive field that included George Gorham, Jr. and Colin Allman. Naugle credited his team and sponsors for the dominant performance, stating that his car was "on point" as he took the win.
The race featured several intense moments. Although Colin Allman set the fastest qualifying time at 14.93, Naugle took the top spot from the start. Early action saw Gorham Jr. challenge the leader before a multi-car incident involving Stephen Nasse’s No. 51 machine and Jesse Dutilly’s No. 30, which resulted in Dutilly retiring early due to fluid leaks.
After a second restart, Naugle maintained a strong lead over Gorham Jr., Allman, and Daniel Webster. The final caution on lap 117, caused by Palmer Haag making contact with the wall, set up one last showdown between Naugle and Gorham Jr. Naugle executed a perfect final restart, escaping the chaos to win the Bigley Tune-Up 125 while leading every single lap.
