The A-Mod feature provided late excitement as Jimmy Willis and Don Luna brought the field to the green as they swapped the top spot back and forth on the opening lap as point leader Jamie Ragland made his presence known by taking over the lead on lap 2.Willis and Ragland swapped the lead back and forth with Steve Muilenburg moving into 3rd place and gaining.On lap 11,the yellow waved for debris as Muilenburg pulled-in with problems.On the restart,Willis took charge and moved around Ragland to take back the lead as last weeks winner Eric Hudson hadc quietly moved into 3rd place.On lap 16 after a great 3 car battle,Hudson moved to the top groove to take control and gather the win with Ragland coming home 2nd with early leader Willis,Brian Brown coming from the last row along with Hudson and Chris Johnson following.
