Howard got out to the early lead with Dietz up to second on lap 1.
Freddie Rahmer started to work his way to the front of the field from his ninth starting spot. Rahmer was up to seventh by lap 2 and was running fifth on lap 3 when he went to work on Glenndon Forsythe for fourth. Rahmer got by Forsythe going down the backstretch on lap 5.
Forsythe then found himself caught between the Rahmer brothers with Freddie in fourth and Brandon right behind him running sixth.

The caution flag came out on lap 14 for debris on the backstretch.
Dietz led Freddie, Howard, Brandon and Adam Wilt to the cone for the single file restart.
Freddie went to the bottom of the track on the start to try and take the lead. He tried again with a slide job on Dietz in turns 3 and 4 but Dietz held onto the lead, beating Freddie to the line by inches. While Freddie was battling for the lead, Brandon got around Howard for third.

Hammaker tried the top of turns 3 and 4 and took the lead coming out of turn 4 with two laps to go. Halligan got around Kuhn for second on the following lap.
