Hoffman made the last lap pass of leader Ray Bollinger of Kewanee, Ill., to earn the win. Bollinger swapped the lead with Matt Mevert of Steeleville, Ill., while the two raced in the midst of lapped traffic until the final three laps when the charging Hoffman worked his way to the lead. Bollinger settled for the runner-up spot just ahead of Mevert in the final rundown. Tim Hancock of Mt. Olive, Ill., finished fourth. Aaron Draege of Vandalia, Ill., rounded out the top five.
