Steve Allman relieved Petrie at the point, on lap 13, with Rude right behind, for second. Rude moved to the outside, on lap 18, and made the winning pass, on lap 19. As the streaked past the checkered flag it was Rude for the win, followed by Allman, Petrie, Scotty Hoeft and Tim Seitz.
In Sportsman action Ryan Goldade of Stoughton claimed his first feature win, in the 30 lap charge for the checkers. Starting eighth in the field, Goldade watched as Jody Purdy pulled ahead at the green. Luke Padfield drove to the point on lap 30, only to hand it back to Purdy on lap 21.
