Mike Weeda edged Mike Bentley at the line to win the first heat ahead of Johnny Morrison, Dustyn Mombourquette, Frank Davey, Brandon Passer, Coltin Everingham, Jay Cutting, Chris Allard and Ethan Constable.

Tyson would try again for the lead at Lap 14, completing the pass two laps later to take the top spot.

With 11 laps to go, Tyson led Davey, Allard, Everingham, Tiemersma, Howse, Walters, Semple, Passer, Morrison, Bentley, Cutting, Franklin, Weeda, Semeraro, Constable, Mombourquette, Sikes, and Holmes.

Tyson got a good restart to keep the lead ahead of Davey, with Allard and Everingham side-by-side for third. Everingham got the spot on Lap 22, with Tiemersma and Semple following him through, as Allard now found himself three-wide for sixth with Walters and Howse. Howse got the spot on Lap 24 ahead of Walters, with Bentley getting alongside Allard for eighth.

Further up the field, Tiemersma continued his climb up through the field, getting alongside Everingham for third at Lap 25. He’d complete the pass a lap later, with Semple rounding out the top-five. Tiemersma was set on continuing to climb his way forward as he got alongside Davey for second with three laps to go.
