Lachowicz and Lance Eubank were close behind followed by Rick Pinney Jr. and Mike Harris. Eubank put his Kawasaki to work and pushed past Lachowicz and Su lewsky to talc.e the lead. By the end' of the second lap, Lachowicz and Pinney also passed Sulewsky for second and third; a broken throttle cable sidelined Harris.

Lachowicz regained his composure and passed Mitchell, but the senior racer didn't give,up easily, and hounded Lachowicz all around the track. Pinney was in third followed by Craig Peterson, Sulewsky and Mickey Pentoney. Pinney moved up to give Mitchell a run for his money, and the two of them let Lachowicz getaway. Pinney finally got around Mitchell, but Lachowicz was long gone. Lachowicz went on to win by six seconds with Pinney cruising in for second. Mitchell hung on for third, Pentoney moved up to fourth and Peterson took fifth. In the 125ccExpenclass, TIOyBanh stormed into the first turn under heavy pressure from Trey Wilkinson.

By the end of the third lap, Mc-' Canby held a pretty healthy lead while Pentoney worked his way up to second followed by Cook, Scheller and Steve Wilkerson.
