denied. "I just tried to play my cards right on the last
lap. I saw Tristan spun it up coming off of four. I just
tried to get a great drive on him and just tried to hold
on," said Texter. "I was able to pass on the back stretch
mostly. Going into three seemed like my strong point all
day. I was struggling a little bit, after they watered the
track before the main, coming off of four. I was trying to
make up for it going into three. That's where it seemed
I was strongest and able to make my passes, down the
straightaways."
Texter was able to hold off Avery at the line by 0.065 of
a second with Stollings a close 0.170 of a second back.
Parker Norris was by himself in fourth, but the race
for fifth was a six-rider battle. Kolby Carlile was able
