Polesitter Emerson Axsom set the pace early before David Gravel powered to the lead on lap three. Sheldon Haudenschild ignited the crowd with a bold move in traffic to lead lap 12, but his night unraveled after contact with Skylar Gee sent him into the infield. That twist opened the door for Kofoid, who had already stormed into contention and used the cushion to climb past both Gravel and Axsom. From there, he controlled the final 12 laps to secure the victory.
Gravel held on for second after leading the opening third of the race, while Carson Macedo mounted a steady charge from seventh to finish third. Logan Schuchart earned Hard Charger honors, advancing ten positions to claim fourth, and Axsom settled for fifth after winning the Toyota Dash and leading the first laps.
The undercard featured Zach Hampton taking the MicroLite Last Chance Showdown and Adam Sobolik topping the C-Feature. Heat race wins went to Gravel, Kerry Madsen, Macedo, and Haudenschild. In time trials, Gravel set quick time in Group A at 10.377 seconds, while Macedo posted the fastest lap overall in Group B at 10.300.
The Grand Forks faithful were treated to classic River Cities action—tight sliders, cushion-pounding drama, and a late push that saw Gravel and Macedo chasing but never catching Kofoid. Next up, the World of Outlaws travel west to Red River Valley Speedway in West Fargo, N.D., for the second leg of the Northern Tour on Saturday, August 23.
