Pozos fell off the pace, but Wattner ~TOVOTA kept the racing close. Going into the last lap, Wattner was 30 seconds behind Gimus, and at the finish he was right on Gimus' tail, with only one second separating the two riders. The Junior Boys class had a new winner on this day. Motorcycle Parts LTD/Bridgestone Tire-sponsored Michael Cardwell was able to grab the holeshot and carry it to a convincing win, over Suzuki-mounted Randy Rhoades and Carter Burkholder.
