Tatum is 1 - 0 against Kalitta in prior events.

Kalitta with the starting line advantage and never trailed for the win. Kalitta started to haze the tires around half track, but stayed with it to get the win. Apparently the word is Kalitta broke a rear end, but there was no fluids on the track. He will give up lane choice to Stewart in the semifinal.

Tatum lost traction early and pedaled it, but couldn't chase Kalitta down.
