Cummings got stuck in lap traffic, allowing Smith and Beason to capitalize and complete the pass on the last lap. Beason finished 2nd, while Cummings fell to third. Brent Bates made his way up to a fourth place finish, after starting in 7th, and stayed on Beason's tail until Smith and Beason passed Cummings. Bates was unable to capitalize on the lap traffic and settled for a fourth place finish. Tim Kent had a good run, making his way into the top five after starting twelfth, finishing fifth.
