Jackie Dalton set the early two- and three-wide racing action early as former track champion James Thomp­son was hanging tight up front along with Jimmy Greenway, Chris Tonoli and others.

After opening up a five car length advantage, a late-race caution placed Thompson on Drake’s back bumper with Dalton, a fast moving Michael Foster and a quick moving Tonoli closing ground.  Thompson tried the top lane on the restart but Drake took his no. 12d to the bottom side and never gave up.
