spun over the berm before a lap could be completed and restarted at the tail. Reinke led
the pack early in the 12 lapper. Brown was slicing through the pack from row six and by

their spins and a caution. Brown led Reinke, Meyer, Lutar and Potter back to green with
five to go. Maeschen restarted in seventh and waited until the final corner to grab the
final transfer from Lutar. Brown pulled away. A main

through the top five. B main winner Brown was eighth by lap 17 when his powerplant went up
