#201 Stephanie Parton was well off her normal pace as she was over well over 3 minutes back in third place, but her luck wasn't about to get any better as her 3rd lap time of 39:05 would sent her back to 6th place as the mud wasn't working in her favor this round.
With the riders due in for the completion of lap three, the track conditions continued to deteriorate as Ohio clay began to make some section of the track almost impassable, which was especially the case for some of the hill climbs.
Spectators gathered around the base of the hills to watch and some even jumped into the mud to help out the stuck riders.
Billy Good was once again the 1st rider to complete the 3rd lap as he took the white flag, but the mud was beginning to slow him down as his laptime was almost two minutes slower than the previous lap at 26:00 minutes
Billy Good didn't have to worry about Jarrod McClure after the 3rd lap because Jarrod race was cut short when his CDI failed on his 450R, which left him sitting in the woods. Jarrod took it in stride and even smiled for the camera after having to be towed back to his pits.
With Jarrod McClure out of the race, Scott St.Clair would move into 2nd place in the Stock Class, but his chances of catching Billy Good were slim to none as he was over 11 minutes behind Good:eek:
Chris Neal was now up to 3rd place after starting out the race in almost last place.
By the end of the 3rd lap, Angel Atwell had closed the minute gap seperating her from Traci Cecco and the battle was on for the final lap as they rode bumper to bumper.
With only one lap left, Traci and Angel were in the top three overall behind Billy Good, which would be the 1st time that the Podium wasn't dominated by Stock Class riders this season.
Angel Atwell was completely covered in mud from riding in the roost of Traci Cecco, which kept her motivated in her attempt to make the pass on Traci Cecco early in the final lap and take over the Women's Lead and 2nd Overall.
Meanwhile, Ken Robey was on a mission on his new ride as he recorded the 2nd fastest third lap time of 26:03, which was only 3 seconds slower than Billy Good, and with adjusted time this moved Ken Robey into 4th Overall in on his Stock Kawasaki.
Michael swift had moved into 2nd Place in the Utility Stock Class, and was 2 minutes behind Ken Robey in 5th overall with Kevin Trantham hanging tight only 5 seconds back in 6th Overall.
There was no stopping Billy Good in the final lap as he never let up even after having an incredible lead. Billy Good would go on to earn his 4th Overall Victory of the season.
