6:32 p.m. The #1 and #2 qualifiers square off to determine who ends their season with a win, but Litton has already taken the big prize and will proudly wear the #1 plate next year. It was an even start and they swapped the lead back and forth for the first half of the track. Then Cannon's header flames started getting erratic and he pedaled it at least once around half track, while Litton's were tall and steady all the way down the track.
