The event started off in a big way with Ledson taking Cole McFadden and Adam Cuthberston three-wide entering turn one. It wouldn’t go for Ledson, though, as he’d loop it around in turn two for the first caution.

Haufe got the spot on Lap 3 ahead of McFadden, with Wes Cuthberston rounding out the top-five. McCelland ran sixth ahead of Drimmie, Ledson and Tyson.

Tyson got the spot on Lap 10 ahead of Drimmie, with Andrew McFadden rounding out the top-10.

Things got interesting for the final spot inside the top-10 as Murray got alongside Andrew McFadden on Lap 12, completing the pass a lap later with Arnott 12^th. The caution then flew for second time, though, as Cole McFadden spun in turn two after contact with Cole McFadden. With 13 laps complete, Adam Cuthberston led  Haufe, Riberdy, McCelland,  Tyson,  Wes Cuthberston,  Drimmie,  Murray,  Sherman, Arnott and Eades.

Drimmie now ran seventh ahead of Wes Cuthberston, Murray and Eades. Andrew McFadden ran  11^th ahead of Massey and Arnott.

Cole McFadden was then able to pass Ledson for fifth at Lap 22, with the caution flying a lap later due to Sherman getting loose off turn four in front of the leads.
