The Division 1 saw the Lefevre Dolphins dominating from race 1 after a gate exclusion from Ryan Edson 7-2. Race 2 looked like Salisbury Jets would make it up after Robert Sellick also suffered a gate exclusion leaving Jack Norman to face up to Shane Weinert and Jay Walters but to everyones surprise he gated out of grid 1 and held his own to the finish.

The LeFevre Dolphins kept their cool and the lead up the last race where they were 8 points up and gave the 2 reserves a ride.
