Great driving by all the guys present at this tricky mile track. Only 2 cautions flew, but there was still plenty of action and close calls. Rob Partridge was able to win the race after causing a caution and taking his last available set of tires. That guy must have been born with a horse shoe somewhere! Finishing second was Rob Cobb that had led most laps, followed by John Richards that had a super close call with the inner wall two laps before the end, Dean Geer fourth and Brian Kenney rounding up the top five. Goody's Headache Award goes this week to Steve Young that lost connection to the server. Again, great race by all drivers. See you next week at Vegas!

Low turn out and no cautions, but the race saw an intriguing battle early on between regular leader Luis Almeida and Jon Uyan. Approaching half distance Andy Graydon passed Uyan and fought for P1 with Almeida, eventually taking the position on lap 22 of 50. Almeida pitted immediately, Graydon a lap later. Initially leading on pit exit, Almeida retook the lead before T2. What ensued was a classic close road racing battle, lasting 12 laps before Graydon managed a ballsy outside line pass exiting the last turn (after managing to get an 11 mph speed advantage onto the main straight!). Over the remaining 14 laps Graydon increased his lead to over 31 seconds and took a deceptively easy win, tyre preservation being key again on the last 27 lap stint.
