Brown shot around Garner on the back chute after the green flag and led all 25 laps without a challenge. Three cautions slowed the race. On lap 10, an inadvertent yellow came out for Drueke, who had done a 360 spin. He got his spot (10th) back. The restart saw Brown ahead of Garner, Grosz, Maeschen and Boston. Grosz was able to get by Garner on the restart and Maeschen started working on Garner himself. The two were exchanging slidejobs on opposite ends of the track when the yellow came out for Boston, who blew his left rear tire. Now Brown led Grosz, Maeschen, Garner and Peters back to green. Three laps later, Phillips came to a stop on the frontstretch and retired. Agan had passed Peters for fifth in the only change in the top five. The win was Brown's third career tally in Denison, and worth $2,000. McCarl was the hard-charger.
