It was the second series win for Logano, who won his NASCAR debut in the West race at Phoenix International Raceway in 2007. Gilliland, the 2004 NASCAR K&N Pro Series West Rookie of the Year, has three series wins including at Sonoma in 2007.
Logano led a race-high 28 laps. After making a second pit stop for tires, he charged through the field and took the lead from Gilliland Turn 4 on Lap 57 of the 64-lap race.
A caution with five laps to go erases Logano's lead of over one second and set up the final two-lap dash to the checkered flag.
Eric Holmes followed Gilliland in third, with Pursley in fourth and Brian Wong in fifth. Completing the top 10 were Jim Inglebright, Moses Smith, Johnny Borneman, Dale Quarterley, and Todd Souza.
Logano will start from the pole in Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race from Infineon Raceway.
Pursley extended his points lead to 215 over Smith and 258 over Holmes. Brett Thompson and Luis Martinez Jr. are fourth and fifth, respectively.
The Thunder Valley Casino Resort 200 will air on SPEED on Thursday, July 14 at 6 p.m. ET
The NASCAR K&N Pro Series West returns to the track Saturday, July 2 for the Southern California Toyota Dealers 200 presented by King Taco at Toyota Speedway at Irwindale (Calif.).
