Jaycie had a moment getting off the line and moved back down the pack. Adam had a moment on the first hairpin and found the kitty litter which relegated him to the back of the pack. Matt DeGroot and Michael Donnellan both were consistent in the first few laps and rounding out the field was Matt Sofi. It was his first drive of the year and he was still adjusting to the new cars.

Scott Daniels suffered a technical issue with ruled him out as well. This certainly was going to put his championship lead in jeopardy.
