Will Kimmel placed third, Kyle Weatherman fourth and Travis Swaim fifth.

“It got wild out there,” Hessert said after the Kentuckiana Ford Dealers 200 presented by Crosley Radio. “It was exciting. My car is a little banged up, but not as bad as some of the others.”

Hessert passed Spencer Gallagher after Gallagher took the white flag.
