The car on the move was Tim Shelton as he had worked his way to fifth from his fourteenth place starting position.

On alp 17 David Williams would his way back into the top five and went to working on Kincaid for fourth. Williams quickly made his way to third and began a battle with Quade for second. While the Quade worked to keep Williams behind him for second Adams began to pull away and work lapped traffic.

The action for the top spot would heat up as Maxey began pressuring Harrison for the top spot. Several cautions closed the field on Harrison, each time he was up to the challenge and kept Maxey at bay. On lap 23 the door opened for Maxey when Harrison hit a rut in turn 2 allowing Maxey to get inside for the lead. Harrison could not recover to retake the top spot and Maxey would go on to record his fourth win of the season followed to the checkers by Harrison, Dan Arnold, Tony Quade and Travis LaRoque.
