**Anthony Ely Storms Through to Watkins Glen Victory** Anthony Ely made the most of his heat race win to dominate the feature, leading 14 laps and holding off Brandon Garman down the stretch for a clean victory at the Glen. Ely controlled the pace when it mattered most, executing precisely in traffic and never giving Garman a sniff at the lead in the closing laps. The real mover was Ryan Wagonschutz, who carved through the field from seventh on the grid to finish fourth — a three-position gain that showcased aggressive racecraft in Watkins Glen's tricky passing zones. He threaded needles where others couldn't find space. Christian McCartney locked down the pole with a blistering qualifying lap but couldn't convert that speed into feature performance, though his heat race victory proved his pace was legitimate. Greg Keppel's consolation win kept him sharp enough to grab the final podium spot in the feature.
