1:18 p.m. Both drivers had good lights, but Foster steadily pulled away for the win. There was a puff of smoke from his car in the lights, the burst panel letting go when he lifted. Burck had some fun of his own, for the second round in a row his chutes wrapped themselves around the wheelie bars instead of blossoming.
