On lap 4 Bishop gets another good run off turn 2 this time on the inside and takes the lead. Yellow on lap 6 when Reed got to wide on top side of turns 1&2 (but manages to return to an 8th place finish in the end). The restart has Bishop, Millman, Short, Johnson, Bunting, with 3 wide action in turn 2 with Short, Bunting, & Johnson and Short takes 2nd. Lap 9 Bunting challenges Short as they run wheel to wheel in the turns, but Short pulls away on the straight a ways; Mullins was 6th now.

At the start of half way had Bishop, Short, Bunting, Johnson, and Millman. Lap 17 Mullins takes 5th from Millman and the yellowed flagged for Wilkins as he got around just outside of turn 4 ( Wilkins was running good and in the top 10 at the time); and Bunting had just taken the lead, but with the yellow he had to go back to 2nd. Restart was Bishop, Bunting, Short, Johnson, and Mullins. Lap 19 Mullins on the outside of turn 2 shoots right by Johnson for 4th. Lap 20 Bunting got loose in turn 4 and Short reclaims 2nd, as Johnson and Bunting battle for 5th. Yellow on lap 21 for Dutton in turn 2 gets around, and the restart was Bishop, Short, Bunting, Mullins & Johnson. Lap 22 Mullins and Johnson metal to metal with Johnson grabbing 4th back. Meanwhile Bunting was on his mission and got a good restart and reaches beside Bishop in turn 1 but backs out, but continues to try to get Bishop, but Bishop was just to strong claiming his 4th win for 2005.
