(Left) The first race gets underway with Tripp Nobles (50) leadIng MIchael Fitzpatrick (89). Pablo Real (29). Keith Pinkstaff (49) and Aaron Yates (158). Kawasaki was out front with the Honda of Brian Gibbs and the Kawasaki of Jeff Sneyd in hot pursuit. The threesome eventually separated themselves. from the field as they fought over the top spot. Rentzell continued to lead across the stripe, but he couldn't shake Gibbs as the two Georgians opened a small gap over Sneyd. With the lead pair dueling for the lead, Sneyd suddenly was presented with the opportunity to edge closer as the final lap approached. Gibbs, on the Roswell Fun Machines Honda, tried to position himself for the final charge, but got sideways in turn three and ran up on the curb, losing valuable ground to Rentzell's Sudco Kawasaki. Rentzell, though, had his own problems on the last go-around: WI got into seven and got on it just a little too hard and almost high-sided, came up out of the seat and was looking down at theĀ· front wheel," Rentzell said. "By the time I got it back up Brian (Gibbs) was right beside me. It was a very good race, we w~re side-by-side in the back section, side-by-side on the back straight, through the dip side-by-side." With Rentzell and Gibbs donating a healthy draft, Sneyd shot right by and wasn't caught before the finish line. The big mover of the race was Quenni King, who came all the way from the ninth row on the starting .grid to finish fifth, putting himself in the se~ond position in . the points standings.
