On lap eight Carmichael flew through the whoops and nearly made the pass for the lead, but Vuillemin was riding great and was able to hold him back. The two battled nearly side by side down the next three corners and straights until they finally came together just after starting the ninth lap of the 25 lap main. As they banged elbows, Stewart wisely stayed clear and made the pass on both of them by cutting under them and grabbing the lead as the three riders headed out of the arena.
Carmichael and Stewart slowly pulled away from Vuillemin. Ricky had a close call on one obstacle, but otherwise looked relaxed and smooth. James looked equally relaxed and smooth, and he had the lead. For the next five laps Stewart gained a tiny bit of ground, and Carmichael made it back up as they finally got into lappers.
As Carmichael jumped the finish line jump to start the twenty second lap, he looked down into mechanics area. It looked almost as if he was waiting for the signal to make a pass he'd been planning for some laps. On that same lap, Stewart stalled the bike in a very tight corner on the outside section. Ricky went to go around Stewart as he stood on his peg and kicked the bike - but Stewart was still rolling - right into a trackside tuff block. Ricky got cut off, and had the choice to stop and wait for James to re-fire his bike, or wheelie over the tuffblock for the pass. Ricky went for the lead, but it didn't work out the way he'd planned. He got his wheel over the block, but tipped in the process just as James got his engine back to life.
Ricky picked himself up, but Stewart had too big of a lead and there weren't enough laps left. Stewart took the night's win and the weekend overall. Ricky crossed the line clearly angry. When he rolled up to Stewart and shook his hand and congratulated him on the win it was clear Ricky was mad only at himself.
The weekend ended on a high note with a great race to cap off two days that held some very good action. Stewart will leave Vegas this big winner, but everyone in the stands also comes home a bit richer from the experience.
