Green flag back in the air one more time, McMahan leads McNabb, Jason Carter, and Nick Perry. McNabb all over the back of McMahan as they head into 3. Carter in 3rd, Perry in 4th as Perry looks inside, falls in line into 1. Now off 2, Perry dives low, can’t make it stick and he’ll fall in line off 4. James Hopson now looking inside 5 as they head into 3 as Ladd powers inside and around Parrott to claim the 5th spot with 4 laps in the books. McMahan your leader, he has about 4 car lengths over McNabb, who has about 15 over Carter. Ladd does a 360 in turn 4, keeps his machine going but the caution was thrown, so he’ll have to restart in the rear with 14 to go.

Green flag in the air one more time as Ladd tries one more time to run up through the field. He’s a wheel man, we’ve seen him in dozens of victory lanes, and he always puts on a show for the fans even in post-race celebrations. But right now, McMahan leads over McNabb, Carter, and Perry. Ladd already up to the 5th spot, and he has his sights set on Perry. Gotta believe he’ll be easier on the gas off 4. Hopson and Parrott beating and banging in the rear of the field. Up front, McMahan leads, McNabb in 2nd, now Ladd looks inside for the position on Perry as caution flies as Parrott, Hopson, and 5 all go around in 2. 11 laps in, 9 remain!
