"To come back after running
off the track and to get a fifth is a
little bit of a disappointment, but
I'm still racing with the guys I'm
supposed to be racing with and
I know I've got the speed," said
Brayton. "After a rough go last
weekend, though, it's good to be
back in the top five."
In the meantime, Roczen
crossed the finish line in sixth.
"The track was once again

Davalos made a pass on "AC"
on the opening lap, and held the
lead until lap four, when he went
down. At that point, Cianciarulo
took over with Baggett not far be-
hind.
"I got the holeshot and then
Martin got by me right away, then
he started pulling away," Cian-
ciarulo said. "I had Blake right
behind me, and I was thinking I
was going to have to put in per-
