Pedregon leaves the line first and starts to pull away. Scelzi strikes the tires about 300 feet out and has to pedal once, then gets the slicks to bite. Pedregon was pulling awy, then the car nosed over about 1000 feet out. Scelzi was making up ground fast but ran out of race-track.

Pedregon will have lane choice over Bartone in round two.
