When the green flag flew again, Sayler charged out in front with Haugstad and Crichton on his bumper. In the next lap, Paul Dingel of Sheboygan passed Crichton in lap 15 to take over third but Crichton battled back and pulled into third the next lap. Crichton continued his charge and passed Haugstad to take over second in lap 17.
