Ironically, aside from a brief stint with Galaxy Motorsports in '99, Miller would return to the series nine years later in the exact same car, Charlie Henderson's #75 Food Country Chevrolet. 2.

The Nascar officials ruled that both drivers were equally at fault. Therefore they were both ejected from the race. Pressley also had a clutch problem in this race. On the first lap he was unable to shift gears and get the car up to speed. There was a caution on the first lap. Pressley made a pit stop where his crew manually put the car in high gear. Throughout the rest of the day Pressley had to settle for being slow on restarts since he essentially only had high gear. Otherwise the car ran pretty well if I remember correctly. I think he was running in the top 10 at one point in the race. 8.

If this was today, Hermie would be out of the race instead coming back for a top 5 like he did here. Btw, first race I ever watched & been a diehard Ward Burton fan ever since. Haven't missed a race since either 9.

Burton and his team alternated between Buicks and Chevrolets during the 1993 season. 11.

Tommy Hoston had to start at the rear of the field for losing a lead weight from his car during qualifying. 14.

All through the 92 season and now part way through the 93 season, anytime Ricky Craven is running in contention they always say, Craven is looking for his 1st career Busch Series win. Either they don't officially count the wins in 91 he had in Oxford and Loudon because he was a Busch North driver at the time, or they just aren't realizing he won those races because he was a Busch North driver at the time. Those were two big time combination races he won. They should count if a driver from the smaller series won as a win in the bigger Series too. That would be like if a Winston West driver would've won at Sonoma or Phoenix and they only counted it as a West win and not an official Cup win. 15.

The Busch series raced alongside NASCAR's short track-focused late model All-Pro tour with the other race representing the other 200 laps. Mike Garvey won that event event while Butch Miller pulled double duty and finished third alongside being in this one. It was a mixed day for the Combs family. Rodney Combs did a great job in this one to recover from that first lap spin to still finish in the top-10. However his son Rodney Combs, Jr. ran the All-Pro race and crashed out of that event. 16.
