The final 100 laps of the 256-lap event had nine cautions and the race ended with Sammy Smith knocking Taylor Gray out of the lead in Turn 3 on the final lap and triggering a multi-car crash as the field raced to the finish.

Sammy Smith was fined $25,000 and docked 50 driver points, while Jeb Burton and Taylor Gray were fined $5,000 each for their conduct at the infield care center. Smith and Gray, who have been feuding since their years in Late Model racing, confronted each other after the race, but were kept apart by security.
