The Formula Xtreme race restarted at about 4:15 p.m. at Road America, with Damon Buckmaster leading into turn one, fighting off Jake Zemke to lead again into turn six, and battling with Roger Hayden.
The lead pack initially included Buckmaster, Hayden, Zemke, Hale, Pridmore and Fergusson. Zemke, Buckmaster and Hayden then pulled slightly ahead of Pridmore, who in turn pulled away from Hale and Fergusson. Then Hayden crashed out on lap 7, leaving Zemke and Buckmaster to fight for the lead.
Buckmster tried to ride around the outside of Zemke in turn five, pulled it down and they collided and both crashed on lap 9 of 10. That gave the lead to Pridmore from Hale and Fergusson.
Zemke restarted and got the white flag in eighth.
