On lap 9 Jim Lepro brought out the next yellow.** Garvin overhauled Miley on the restart and began to put some distance between himself and the rest of the field, while Lynn Geisler moved into third and began to challenge Miley. On lap 15 Ferree slowed bringing out another caution, and pitted with overheating problems and did not return . Garvin pulled away again and looked as if he was going to pick up his first win of the season. But a quick caution for John Flinner and Jon Hodgkiss who tangled coming off of turn four was his downfall. Miley made a wild move on the restart and got by Garvin and led the remaining laps. Geisler also got by Garvin, as it appeared his tires went away. At the checker it was Miley, Geisler (who picked up the Awesome Design Hard Charger Award), Garvin, Burgoon, Steve Baker, Ben Miley, Daryl Charlier, Kari Gasser and John Flinner.
