I move into P5 between the first two right handers, then overtake the Range Stormer and Clix just as I enter the Esses. I move past the CALDINA just before the final left of the Esses, but I give P2 back to it as I go too wide through the final turn.

I put two blocks on the Clix as I begin Lap 2, down 3.875" to the Lancer. This helps me get up to speed, and I elect to cut through the grass to catch up. It works out well, as I'm on the Lancer's tail heading into the Esses. I bang past it near Gyaku, and take the lead for good. From there, I manage to keep things calm, and I cruise through the final lap to a comfortable victory.

I ended the race with 11.9 miles on the odometer.
