(1/2/13) A week after a snow storm had caused the postponement of the SCORE show slated for Wernersville Raceway, twelve drivers anxiously passed trough the track gates for an overdue double program of USAC sprints and midgets. At the drop of the first green flag, however, Carey Becker ran away from the field to grab four segment wins and a second place in the 50 lap sprint feature to record the victory. Three points behind, Mike Lengel took the runner-up spot with four second place finishes and a win in his segments. Lee Greenawalt led the rest of the competition by besting Chuck Heller in a tie-breaker for third overall. In another tie-breaker, Tim Musser nipped Trevor Kobylarz to earn fifth place.

The trailing midget main was almost a carbon copy of the sprint event as Lengel scooted to four segment wins and a second to deny Greenawalt's fine 47 point effort for the triumph. Dave Balloch upset Becker by a tie-breaker for third as Homer Hiester topped a tight pack of five drivers for fifth place in the 50 lapper.
