Rico Abreu knew he had a do over on Friday night. He made the most of it by winning the Hard Knox Night at the 61st Running of the Nos Energy Drink Knoxville Nationals live on KNIA. Abreu, who had a poor preliminary night earlier in the week, led all 25 laps and was never seriously challenged for the win. However behind him was a battle to see who would join Abreu in transferring to the finals. Kerry Madsen, Sheldon Haudenschild and Brian Brown all finished the top four and they will line up 21st-24th in the championship race. There are five races remaining in the Knoxville Nationals as tonight is championship night with the 50 lap A-Main being where everyone wants to be. Live coverage is on KNIA starting with Live Track Side at 5:00 and Race Nights Live at 7:00.
