Surprise pole position for Wayne Grubb in an otherwise turbulent Busch
career.

Kenny Schrader returns to the Busch Series after almost a 3 year
absence. He qualified 4th but crashed out with 75 laps remaining

I was at this race and can recall the immense cheer that came for local
driver Wayne Grubb when he was introduced as the pole sitter for the
race. He went on to back up that strong qualifying run with the best
finish of his career, fourth. I can also recall in his pre-race
interview he mentioned that he and his team had decided not to race the
two previous races at Charlotte and Dover so that they could better
prepare for the Richmond race, as they obvious wanted to have a strong
run at their home track.

This was Wayne Grubb's only pole position...although he eventually
qualified in the top-10 for eight of his 52 Busch series starts.

This was the first Nascar race I attended. I recall everyone around me
yelling "Go Dale Jr!!!" near the end of the race, and also that Jeff
Burton won. Also remember that I lost my ticket for the race at some
point in the day and my friends dad looked very irritated as he had to
buy me another. Had a great time there and beforehand knew next to
nothing about the Busch Series but started watching it after. I also was
amazed by how brightly colored the cars were under the lights. I was a
teenager and only a couple years removed from when I used to be a really
big wrestling fan as a kid and another memory from the race was looking
down and thinking wow, there's a car in this race that is a WCW car.
