What won the race: Inheriting the lead on a lap-29 restart after race-long pacesetter Charlie McKenna was eliminated along with three frontrunners, third-starting Cory Dumpert of Newman Grove, Neb., led the final two laps in winning Sunday's Repairable Vehicles.com Tri-State Late Model Series debut at Cresco Speedway. Dumpert beat Tyler Bruening by 1.651 seconds on the two-lap restart, collecting $3,000 and his third Tri-State Series victory of the season.

Key notes: Second-starting Charlie McKenna rocketed to the lead on the opening start and led all the way until he was eliminated on a lap-29 restart attempt, along with top-five contenders J.T. Wasmund and Trevor Anderson. McKenna was later disqualified and dropped to 23rd in the final rundown for apparent retaliation under the lap-29 caution that ended his chances of winning. ... Tri-State points leader Cory Dumpert, who trailed McKenna from laps 13-28, inherited control on the green-white-checkered finish en route to his third win in his last five series starts, all of them coming since Aug. 9 at Mason City (Iowa) Motor Speedway. ... Tyler Bruening, winner of Saturday's weekend opener at Deer Creek Speedway in Spring Valley, Minn., initially drew a lap five caution and pitted from fourth before storming back to pass polesitter Dylan Schmer for second on the final lap; Schmer settled for third. ... Recent Hall of Fame inductee Lance Matthees climbed seven positions to place sixth. ... Kadden Kath, Cody Thompson, Ronnie Malecki and Shane DeMey all retired under the race's third stoppage on lap 13. ...
