After the third and final attempt at a green-white-checkered (flags) restart of the NNS Bucyrus 200 at Road America, it was Reed Sorenson leading when the final caution was thrown (ending the race) and was awarded the victory.

Sorenson, who is the series’ new points leader with 5-points over Elliott Sadler, received his first series win of the 2011 season, his fourth series career win and his first series win at Road America.

Ron Fellows, who at first was thought to be the winner, was awarded second after it was determined Sorenson was the leader when the final caution was shown, and they were followed by Jacques Villeneuve finishing third, Elliott Sadler fourth and Mike Wallace finishing in fifth.

Rounding out the top-ten finishers were Andrew Ranger finishing in sixth, Michael Annett seventh, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. eighth, Ricky Carmichael ninth and J.R. Fitzpatrick finishing in the tenth position.
