Solitaire's Ryan Clark mede it to the main event by finishinS fifth in his semi. ln the
main,
Clark
gated well and linish€d the llrst lap in seventh. From that point, he rode a con-
sistent
race and took advantage ofa fading Kevin Windham as the laps wound down to lin-
ish seventh.
"The
main event went good," he said.
"l
had a real bad
pick
on the
tate,
but

gate,
so I took it. I came out of the
tate

and it was a little chaotac in the first turn, the way they had it, but I staned inside the top l0
and I
iust
rode my own ra.e. Windham went by me, and I know he was a litlle bit
{ati8ued,
but it helped me, because I was able .o run some of his lines. Then, once he kind of moved
over and let me back by. I had a clear track ahead of me. I was happy I was able

strong 20 laps." Clark has made every main event but one this
year.
