Defender Kevin Hemsley scored a hat-trick and Carl Wilson-Denis grabbed a brace as Crawley Town beat Cambridge City to go top of the table.
Hemsley took advantage of slack marking in the fifth minute and gave the Reds a deserved 2-0 cushion in the 34th minute when he deflected Paul Armstrong's shot past City keeper Alan Calton.
Wilson-Dennis stroked the ball through Calton's legs in the 63rd minute to put Crawley firmly in the driving seat before Danny Bloomfield pulled one back.
Wilson-Dennis immediately restored the three-goal lead with a 30-yard lob and Hemsley wrong-footed the keeper from the penalty spot in the 73rd minute. Carlin Itonga hit a stoppage time consolation.
