"I did not think we had a chance to win today, we had the 14^th or 15^th fastest car today. We were looking at this as a testing session, but then we got going forward and we started to think we could win."  Stated Lane.

While his was not the fastest car on the track, lady luck was on his side. Starting last of the 45 cars that started, Lane spent much of the race moving through the field and when the faster cars all dropped out due to different problems, he was there to get in front and stay there.

Chuck Barnes, Sr. started on the front row and took an early lead, leading 55 of the first 69 laps when he was forced to retire due to mechanical problems. Bret Miles led 13 laps, but he too was forced out due to mechanical problems, giving the lead to Rich Boyer. Boyer lead 7 laps but he had to come in for a green flag pit stop due to a flat tire. He lost 4 laps in the pits and worked the rest of the race to attempt to get back in the race. He eventually finished ninth, only one lap down after passing Lane with only a couple of laps to go.

This pass caused some drama as Lane did not know Boyer was laps down and he attempted to re-pass Boyer on the last lap, thinking Boyer had passed him for the lead.

"I did not know he was really a lap down and thought he had won. I only knew I had won when we pulled into victory lane and I saw the scoreboard." Lane said with a smile. "I thought we were racing for the win, without a radio it is hard to keep track of the lap cars."

Mike Riddle took the lead after Boyer dropped back and lead until the 128^th lap when he pitted under the yellow for fuel. After the race restarted he was again running for the lead, and showing himself as the fastest car on the track, when his tire went down just as the race was getting ready for a restart after another yellow flag. He went one lap down while changing his tire as the green fell while he was still in the pits. Riddle battled back to finish sixth, one lap back.

Todd Kempf, who finished second, started beside Lane at the back of the field. "I wasn’t real fast today, but we were in the right place at the right time." Kempf stated. Kempf took the lead from Riddle and lead for 14 laps before being passed by Lane on lap 143.

Dean Baker also started at the back but avoided trouble throughout the race to finish third the last car on the lead lap. Jeff Cravens finished fourth, with John Schafer holding on to finish fifth.

With this finish Baker takes over the lead in the season point championship passing Bret Miles who started the day in the lead and finished in third place behind Baker and Boyer who moved into second only 6 points behind Baker.
