2nd: 1976 Miss U.S., Brooklyn Kinney

3rd: 1962 Lumberville, Noah Pock

​

Alex was the closest to the line at the start, and showed the rest of the field that his Miss Houston continues to have great speed. He paced the field and took home his second victory in a row. Brooklyn Kinney continued her solid 2023 with a run to 2nd, and Noah Pock made his R/CU debut and finished 3rd.

4th (DNS): 1983 KISW Miss Rock, Dave Brandt

4th: 1977 Atlas Van Lines, Jim Whyte

6th: 1974 Miss U.S., Neil Boyle

​

The Charlie's Girl was first over the line however was called for jumping the gun, earning a 1-lap penalty. The Atlas Van Lines took the early lead, but a slightly scattered start by the rest of the field meant that the Boat with Paxton was quickly rising up the order from the trailer spot. As he moved into second, he began pressuring the Atlas. On the 4th lap, the Boat was inside the Atlas, and the Atlas cut across the front of the Boat exiting turn 4, earning a 1-lap penalty for lane infringement. The Boat sputtered but was able to continue, and Paxton took his first victory in the gas class in 2023, all the way from the trailer spot.

4th: 1982 Atlas Van Lines, Marc Connelly

​

The Atlas Van Lines was first over the line but was similarly called for jumping the gun, earning a 1-lap penalty. Henry Oord and the Miss Houston was the benefactor, as he held off the Oh Boy! Oberto and Pay'n Pak to take the victory and advance to the final.

2nd: 1984 Atlas Van Lines, Rich Matkin

3rd: 1983 Miss Houston, Henry Oord

4th: 1994 Smokin' Joe's, Conner Henriksen

5th: 1973 Miss Budweiser, Bobby Colean

6th (DNF): 1985 Miller American, Don Mock

7th (DNF): 1983 KISW Miss Rock, Paxton Reunanen

​

Don Mock took the early lead with the Miller American, but going up the backstretch and entering turn 3 on the first lap, the boat got light and corkscrewed up. The boat landed right-side up, but right in the field of several boats, including the Miss Rock. The Rock pulled into the pits with damage, and while the Miller recovered for this moment, it would flip again later in the heat. Up front, it was Bill Brandt who escaped the madness and took his second straight win in the FE class. Rich Matkin took second in a borrowed Atlas, with Henry Oord taking the last spot on the podium.
