Jeff Purvis' penultimate ARCA start results in his third-straight
victory in the series at M.I.S. For the record his last start would be
at Daytona the following February... he'd win that one too.

1989 ARCA champion Bob Keselowski finishes in the top-10 in what would
be his final race in the series. With the formation of the NASCAR
SuperTruck Series earlier in the year Keselowski moved his Mopar effort
over to running the pickups.

1990 ARCA champion Bob Brevak also made his final ARCA start in this
race, crashing out in the early laps. Like Keselowski Brevak had turned
his attention to the new NASCAR SuperTruck Series in 1995.

In response to #7, the accident with Thompson and Brevak looked like an
infamous ARCA "no brakes" accident. Thompson was trying to run in the
outside groove which was not worked in. Mark spun the car harmlessly up
towards the wall, but as he came down he got smashed by Bob causing the
bigger crash behind them.

To the rear - 5 - backup car

34 sponsor - ConCur Ford/Mack
57 sponsor - BFI RecycleFlow

The Thompson crash was brutal, he would have been fine if he held the
car up by the wall after he'd finished spinning. He's lucky that he was
t-boned by Brevak in the front end and not a foot or so further back in
the door.
