Matthew Manor/NASCAR

Alex Tagliani was able to hold off a hard charging Andrew Ranger to take his second victory of the 2016 Season. Tagliani edged Ranger by just .184 seconds to score the closest win in the history of the race held at Honda Indy Toronto. The race was slowed by just two cautions with Patrick Dussault getting knocked into the wall on Lap 30 to bring out the final caution of the day and set up the two-lap dash to the finish. Kevin Lacroix followed in third with L.P. Dumoulin and Kerry Micks rounding out the top five. (In part from NASCAR Home Tracks)
