It was pole sitter Robert Love that led the field to the green flag and took and early lead. The racing was pretty hard right off the bat and that resulted in a massive accident after some 6 laps, that forced a lot of drivers to pit and use their repair; After that, it was still furious and several yellows thinned out the field. The second half of the race, things calmed down. Stuart Wright and Bill Smithem were running for the win together, but Wright unfortunately was caught speeding on pit road on his last stop, which gave Smithem a comfortable lead. Fozillo stretched his fuel to secure 2nd but was disqualified for reaching the incident limit on the last lap. Breuning sputtered across the line to grab 2nd. Fozillo was award third as he completed 99 laps.

Stuart Wright salvaged his race with 4th and Jack Wilson was 5th.

At the start, it was Smithem that looked to take the lead, with Breuning on his inside in turn one. Approaching the tight section around the fountain, Smithem took the safe way and let the #61 go. The margin between Breuning and Smithem remained close, while Smithem was dealing with Austin Dilts, who passed him for 2nd only to miss turn one a lap later – ending his race. Smithem was back in 2nd, but a little bit further behind now. The pitstops widened the gap even more and Breuning took the win, ahead of Smithem and Morgan Smith.
