At the halfway point of the race, Drake had a comfortable lead of nearly a half a lap on the field.  Drake continued to put in great laps and went on to take the win uncontested.  TLR teammates Matt Castellano and Drew Moller rounded out the podium for a TLR sweep.  World Champion Cody King finished fourth.
