Hal Goodson comes into the final race of the season looking to dethrone
reigning series champion Mike Cope to win his first All-Pro series
title. Goodson's title hopes took a hit when he blew a tire early in the
race but he recovered to finish 12th and edge Cope for the title despite
his rival finishing in the top-5.

Cope raced for Bobby Labonte's team throughout the 1995 season but the
Winston Cup racer decided to take his team out of the All-Pro ranks
after this year. Cope bought all of Labonte's equipment, convinced
Penrose Meat Snacks to stick around as a sponsor, and went on to reclaim
his title in 1996. Goodson opted not to defend his All-Pro title in 1997
as he moved over to race in the USAR Hooters Late Model Series but would
return to the series in 1997.

Freddie Query picks up his third win of 1995. Query wouldn't return to
the All-Pro tour full-time in 1996 as he followed Goodson into the USAR
Hooters Late Model Series but would return to the NASCAR tour for a full
campaign in 1998.

Wisconsin's Steve Holzhausen, a former All-Pro regular, makes his only
start of 1995 and what would turn out to be his final one in the series
and makes it count with a top-10 run. Michigan racer Dave Sensiba, a
driver better known for ASA racing, comes south to make his only All-Pro
start but blows an engine very early in the race.

IIRC Steve Allison had a big wreck in this one. I remember seeing his #2
HealthSouth Ford firewall deep in the outside wall after a wreck,
possibly a hung throttle or something, with the door hanging off but I'm
not sure if that was this race or another earlier in the season.

Query's winnings - $28,385

36 sponsor - Red Dog
43 sponsor - The Regency

This was the last time the Myrtle Beach 400 counted for All-Pro points.

Someone on Twitter mentioned TNN may have broadcast this race so perhaps
there's footage out there.

Hal Goodson, Mike Cope, and Ron Barfield, Jr. all came into the last
race of the season with a championship bid. Goodson led Cope by 68
points and Barfield by 90 when the green flag dropped. Barfield won the
pole and led early but wasn't a factor for the win. Goodson's 12th-place
run was enough for him to best Cope by 35 points and Barfield by 111 to
win the championship.
