Zack Barry was present with the new M18T Pro and after qualifying for the Open Truck class he lined up 2nd, despite running the fastest lap times. At the start of the main final Zack quickly got by the leader but had a bobble shortly after that, allowing 3rd place driver Tony Phalen to get by. Now running in 2nd place, Zack followed Tony for several laps, slowly closing the gap.
