With ten laps to go Sean Corr led the field back to green but Sheldon Creed would assume the lead just before another caution came out. After an accident that saw Brent Holmes go up in the air and land on his side, a one lap shootout was required.
After a lengthy red flag, side by side racing between Creed and Corr resulted in both drivers being wrecked out of the race an the requirement of another one lap shootout.
Michael Self began the second shootout in the lead.
The win is the second of Self’s career in the ARCA Racing Series. He won ARCA’s season finale at Kansas last year.
