Up front, Montgomery blocked a pass
attempt by Green going into the Bus Stop
tum, the next-te-Iast tum of the course. However, Green outmotored Montgomery on the
exit and took the lead under braking a turn
later. At the end of lap one, the order was
Green, Montgomery and Sanchez. with Jensen
in fourth. ahead of Prussiano, Young and an
on-lhe·move Shannon Ball.
Once in the lead, Green put in his fastest
lap in an attempt to stay out of Jensen's
reach. Meanwhile, Jensen had moved even
further up the order, passing Sanchez and
Montgomery in the carousel tum after the finish.
On lap three. Jensen caught Green and
tried a move going into the first turn but
couldn't make it stick. He finally went by a
tum later, in The Bitch.
"I went one gear shorter than I normally do
to get a better drive out of the corner." said
Jensen of the inside pass on Green.
"I heard him comin' in 10 Itum one on the
course now run backward!," said Green. "He
stuck his nose in goin' into The Bitch, and I
knew he was comin' by, so I let off a little,
hopin' he would run wide, but he got it
stopped and got turned."
Meanwhile, Prussiano had passed Mont·
gomery on the fast right·hander before the fin·
ish, and after four times across the stripe, the
order was Jensen, Green and Prussiano, with
Ball displacing Montgomery and Sanchez to
move into fourth. Once into fourth. Ball began
dogging Prussiano and waiting for a mistake.
He didn't have to wait long.
"I tried to use my rear brake going into a
corner and it didn't work," said Prussiano... ,
thought maybe we just hadn't pumped it up
after changing wheels, so I spent the rest of
that lap trying to pump it up, and that's when
he IBali1 got around me. After Ball went by, I
just ignored the rear brake and put my head
down and tried to get him back."
On lap six, Green made an attempt to get
back around Jensen, but Jensen foiled the
attempt, and by the end of the lap the order
was Jensen, Green, Ball, Prussiano, Mont·
gomery, Young and Sanchez.
On the final lap, Prussia no put himself into
position to make a move on Ball in the Bus
Stop. Ball had been covering his inside line
going into the tum on the previous two laps,
so Prussiano swung wide in an attempt to
square the turn and set up Ball for a pass in
10, but Prussiano bogged on the exit, and Ball
brought it home unchallenged. At the finish, it
was Jensen, Green, Ball. Prussiano and Mont·
gomery.
