Adam Hilton would challenge Conant for second on lap three, but Conant would answer the early challenges. Cody McPherson started ninth on the grid and by lap eight, was up to fourth place. McPherson would pass Adam Hilton for third place on lap 13, as Conant and Tuttle battled for the lead while in lap traffic. Conant would take over the lead on lap 14. While the field was negotiating lap traffic, Brett Senek would battle for positions inside the top 10 with Derek Wagner and Jordan Moden. The caution would come out on lap 20, as Tyler Moore spun in turn two. On the restart, McPherson would challenge Tuttle and Conant for the lead, with McPherson taking over second on lap 24. Dave Conant would hold off Tuttle and McPherson to secure the victory, his first at Ransomville since September of 2016.
