Feature Re-Cap: A spin at the back of the pack on the initial attempt to start the feature proved to be a break for Kofoid as he had slipped up the track and lost multiple positions. A complete restart was called for.
When the green flag waved over the 30-lap main event it was Kofoid who went to the lead ahead of Larson, Shaffer, Macri and Marks, On the second lap, Marks passed Macri for fourth as Larson challenged Kofoid for the lead.
A lap 8 caution for Madsen slowed the action. On the restart, Kofoid got off to a good start pulling away from Larson. Shaffer and Marks fought for third behind the leaders with Marks ultimately winning out.
At the halfway mark, Larson closed in on Kofoid to offer a challenge for the top spot. His efforts paid off on lap 19 as Larson bolted to the lead in traffic. Further back, Peck entered the top-5 by passing Macri.
Larson quickly began to pull away from the pack as he cut through slower traffic leaving Kofoid more than two seconds behind. Peck took fourth from Shaffer on lap 24 as Marks pulled up to fight with Kofoid for the runner-up position.
As the laps clicked away, Marks and Kofoid exchanged the second spot with Marks eventually taking the position with Peck also slipping by Kofoid on the final lap.
But in the end, it was Kyle Larson who would pull away by more than three seconds to capture his 29th career ASCoC victory. It was his second consecutive Silver Cup triumph.
