Mark Martin got mad because he lost this race to Jeff Burton after
trying to avoid a last lap spin.

The spin was by the one and only, Jack Sprat.

Jeff Gordon's first of 5 Busch Series starts in 2000, a season that saw
him record his first (and so far, only) win at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

Rarely does a car go away as badly as Hank Parker's in this one. He
qualified on pole, ahead of the dominant Roush #60, but had absolutely
no pace and dropped to the bottom five within the first 30 laps, where
he remained all race.

Otherwise, it was a no nonsense race with really long green runs. Mark
Martin did a great job and came back from a lap down to almost win the
race until Jack Sprague ran out of talent while desperately trying to
stay 1 lap down. Martin made an amazing avoidance move, but it was
enough to allow teammate Jeff Burton to go past on the bottom and take
an unexpected win. Always good to see Martin lose these, but there's no
question he deserved this one.

Nothing much in the way of action for the most part though. Some decent
racing, but a generally below average race.
