Stenzo started 11th, but was quickly passed by Speed, who then led the two in a hard charge to the front. Stenzo then darted past Speed and into the lead, where he paced the field for 21 laps before turning it over to Coyote. After clipping Coyote's rear bumper in an attempt to reclaim the lead, he wobbled and lifted off the throttle, then brushed two other cars and almost wrecked, dropping him back into 12th position, where he remained most of the day. But as the field cycled through their pit stops, he managed to race his way back into 2nd place, trying desperately to chip away at Speed's 6 second lead, but could only manage to cut it to 3.35 seconds when the checkered flag fell. Speed increased his points lead to 151 points over Stenzo, who remains in 2nd place in the points battle after his sixth top 5 finish this year.

Bob started from 14th, and found trouble right away after tangling with another car, and dropped back in the pack while most of the other competitors sped away. He tried desperately to bump-draft his way back toward the front, but because of the torrid pace being set by the leaders, and with no caution flags to slow the field, he was never able to catch back up to the lead pack. Then, after a long two-tire pit stop, he fell further back and eventually finished 21st.

Coyote started in 17th position, and had patiently worked his way up through the field, speeding past Stenzo, then Speed, to lead a total of 4 laps. However, when he was coming in for a routine pit stop, he got black-flagged for speeding on pit road, and had to serve a stop-and-go penalty before being allowed to receive pit service. Because he was extremely low on fuel, he was forced to slowly circle the track on the apron, and fell three laps down before finally making it back to the pits for desperately-needed fuel and right side tires. He quickly returned to the race, but finished 23rd, marking the fifth time this season he's finished 21st or worse.
