Before the green flag flew,  Seger experienced a fluid leak that caused the flames, which were quickly put  out. Pole Sitter Ryan Deane of Winterport battled the defending champion, John  Phippen Jr. for the lead, until Phippen ran into trouble, spinning out in turn  four. Phippen, believing he had time to avoid the upcoming traffic, got back  onto the track at lap 25 in front of the leaders, causing the field to scatter,  and drawing out a caution flag. As a result, Phippen fell off the lead lap. Paul  White from Corinna took advantage of the chaos to put him self in a position to  grab the lead, and the win. Deane took second, with his brother-in-law, Jessie  Smith of Bangor in third. <\/div>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<div align=\"left\"><span>Despite three cautions, Brenton Parritt of Stueben found himself in a  comfortable lead in the 50-lap Coca Cola Limited Sportsman Series, leading the  field by the length of the straightaway at the checkered flag.
