Green, Richards leads. The whole field is running through a rut in turn 3-4. They’re bouncing across it to find the moisture inside. Caution, Roberts has a flat.

Green, Hudson O’Neal is flying through the field on the bottom. He started 15th! He’s around Owens and chasing down Richards. He’s there with just a handful to go. O’Neal looks to the inside in turn 1, he backs out.

He looks to the inside in turn 3. Again, he backs out. Hudson O’Neal has the fastest car in the field.

Lap 49, caution, Bloomquist has spun in turn 3. Hudson O’Neal was just making a move in turn 3. Richards might have backed out for the caution lights. Hudson got around him but they will revert to the previous lap. Richards will restart in the lead.
