Wiest Edges Hoff at the Line
It was a three wide battle for the lead between the Martin brothers of Preston, Casey and Dauntae in the INEX Legends feature. Casey Martin shuffled into the lead but quickly had to fend off defending track champion Donavin Wiest and Troy Hoff. Casey Martin started to fade early, losing the lead to Wiest, Hoff and Drew Papke. Hugging the guardrail, Wiest found speed along the low line of the track while Hoff was quick along the high side. They raced side by side for the lead, flip flopping for position several times. As they continued to race door to door, Papke lurked in third. With three laps to go, Hoff changed his line and followed Wiest along the guardrail,allowing Papke to make it a three car fight for the win. Coming to the checkered flag, Hoff threw his car hard into corners three and four. As they crossed the finish line, it was almost too close to call but Donavin Wiest won by mere inches over Troy Hoff. Drew Papke finished third while Ivan Sailer finished fourth ahead of pole sitter Preston Martin.
