Though Speedy missed the pole he did take home the Fastest Lap, Most Laps Led and Hard Charger awards. ucrdoh led sixteen laps but couldn't pull out the victory, settling for second position by a nine second margin. Spike captured the pole award and appeared strong pre-race but unfortunately things went down hill shortly after the start. Spike post-race... "Thought we had luck on our side when we got pole position in qualifying. 1st lap went great then while exiting turn one on the second lap I ended up facing the wrong direction in the grass. I don't know what happened, felt like something hit the rear of the car. Things just went down hill from there. Ended up spinning out multiple times and then fuel light came on with three to go so I just threw it in 6th and coasted to the finish line. " Breeze finished fourth followed by Redimuss and BlackKnight in the top six. Speedyman11 increases his driver championship lead from seventeen to twenty points over ucrdoh while Breeze drops to third with Spike fourth. Speedy leads the road championship by eight point over Spike with ucrdoh ten points from the leader in third.
