Bill Rodgers led the first sixteen laps before Moore took over and the veteran stayed out front for nearly two thirds of the laps. But the torrid pace seemed to take a toll on his ride. DJ Shaw challenged Moore for the first hundred laps until Dragon took up the challenge, making his move on Shaw on a restart.

Dragon's victory margin was .852 seconds and twelve of the thirty starters finished on the lead lap. Three minor cautions slowed the pace. Bill Rodgers, Alan Tardiff and Kelly Moore were the heat race winners; Johnny Clark qualified via a consolation round win.
