"I had some issues with my throttle cable after my crash and I actually stopped in the pits to make some adjustments but we weren't sure if it was going to make it to the end," Borich said.
Meanwhile, Kiser was able to take over the lead but McGill was all over his back wheels, with Fowler and the gang close behind. After a brief stop in the pits, Borich was on his way to the front once again. By Lap 4, Borich had put himself in between Kiser and McGill and the trio began to pull away from Fowler at first, but after securing his first win of the season last round, Fowler wasn't going to let a podium finish slip away that easily.

The final leg of the course consisted of high-speed grass track and the famed motocross track. Kiser fumbled in the grass track section, allowing Borich to sweep by and take over the lead, ultimately giving Borich his tenth win of the season at Loretta Lynn's. Kiser came through right behind Borich and Fowler was able to get around McGill for the final podium position.
