Lap 12 Bilbee made an unbelievable move around traffic to open up a lead oner Swanson.

Bilbee wins and a free for all behind him. Lots of banging but no yellows.

The Bilbee move I mentioned was going outside of a lapped car then inside of another in the front stretch. Beautiful move that may have won it for him. Congrats on his win. He earned it. Swanson and company was there to keep him honest.

The track really came in for the feature.

Feature over at 9:30.

Sounds like I missed out on a good one. I was in the truck packed and ready to head north and looked at forecast and let it scare me off.
