Force has been to this race every year since the opening of this track. He has six wins and has been the runner up four times. Hight won here in '06 and '09.

Hight gets out of the gate first then starts rattling the tires. He gets about 200 feet out, pedals once, then gives up on the run. Force drives around him at that point and goes on through with his quickest pass of the weekend.
