This is Force's 9th start from the number one position here at Indy. He has won here four times and has runnered-up twice. He is 6-6 against Burkart. This is Burkart's 4th start from the 16th spot here. He has never won a round at Indy.

Force gets off the line first, but Burkart powers by at the 60 foot mark. Force gets about 300 feet out, strikes the tires, pedals several times, then crosses the center-line and takes out the 1000 foot timing cone. Burkart struck the tires around half-track, pedaled a couple of times, and went on through for the win.
