Seven cars couldn't survive a green flag lap. The first incident involved a horrifying Peters accident that sheared the front of the car off. Montgomery was also involved.

The incident also involved Mitrisin, Chadd and Bakker. Only Mitrisin would continue. Humston was also taken in for observation. The 20 lapper went nonstop once under green. Brown dominated, building a straightaway lead over W. Johnson at the halfway point and winning by almost half a lap at the checkers. Roberts had a nice run going, but looked to suffer a flat with two to go. Winters blew a motor and retired early.
