Polesitter Breuning and Bill Smithem duked it out for a good bit at Pocono, until the latter scuffed the wall and lost the draft. But a late race caution brought the field back together and suddenly Breuning found himself trying to hold off Warren, Miller and Smithem for the win. Three wide into the final two turns, Warren and Miller touched on turn 3 going into the final lap and the subsequent yellow saved leader Breuning from being run over with the finish in sight. Breuning won ahead of Smithem, Warren, Civitaresse, Miller and Forrester.

Rick Ravon once again put himself on the pole and led for 16 laps. Breuning, although never too far behind, had nothing that worried him. On lap 16, a technical issue forced him out of the race. Breuning took over and won the race, ahead of Don Warren and Bill Smithem. Potgieter and Boydell rounded out the top 5.

Starting from the pole, Marc Breuning led all the way at Elkart Lake. Although front row starter Bill Smithem appeared to have something for him in the first few laps, once everyone ‘warmed up’ the field stretched out. Smithem and Erter had a good back and forth for 2nd, but a short loss of focus meant that Smithem had to settle for 3rd behind him.

Joseph Miller and Andrew Forrester rounded out the top 5, the latter being very content with a top 5 road course finish!

Starting from the pole, Rick Ravon led every lap but one (when he pitted) followed by Breuning and Patrick Day, which was basically how the race was run. Charles Harris and Don Warren rounded out the top 5.

It was Don Warren that took the pole, but he scraped the wall early on. It were Day, Breuning, Smithem and Miller battling wheel to wheel all race long, with Warren recovering and mixing it in there as well, until he did the same thing again later. At the end, it was Day that took the win by 0.08 over Breuning, with Miller close in 3rd and Smithem in 4th, still within 1/2 a second of the winner. Charles Harris rounded out the top 5 in a caution free event!
