We lost good short tracks in Nashville, South Boston, and Myrtle Beach,
for snoozers in Nashville(new 1.3 concrete track) and Kentucky....

Two more notable things about this race was Greg Sacks serving as a
color commentator for TNN, and the only NASCAR start for Rodney
Childers, who is now Scott Riggs' crew chief.

And also, Kevin Harvick's second place finish was his career-best at the
time.

Rodney Childers' only NASCAR Busch Series start, and his only start in
any of the top 3 NASCAR divisions.

The last-ever Busch race at South Boston is followed by the last-ever
Busch race at Myrtle Beach, weird to see back-to-back final races in any
NASCAR series (neither of which was promoted as such as opposed to say
Nashville's fond farewell in both Busch and the Trucks the same year).

This race ended up shaking out as a battle between points leader Jeff
Green and rising star Kevin Harvick. Green came into this race hot off
his win at South Boston but fell back to third from the lead on lap 40
when Harvick put the bumper to him. Green raced back up and once he got
back in front of Harvick pulled away to claim the third win of his
championship season. A late caution for multi-car wreck involving Andy
Santerre gave Harvick one last shot but Green and the NesQuik #10 Chevy
Monte Carlo were just too strong.

Jeff Purvis crashed out of this one after contact with Randy LaJoie.
Purvis wasn't pleased with how that played out and got out of his car
with his helmet to go looking for LaJoie as the cars came back around
under caution. Most of the field went high around the safety vehicles
and the wrecked #4 Pontiac but LaJoie sneaked by Purvis before he could
launch his helmet at him by going low. Purvis ran down the track but
LaJoie thankfully was gone before he could get his throw in.

Phillip Morris leads a Busch series race for the second and final time.
His chances for any sort of a good finish were dashed when Mike Dillon
got together with Todd Bodine and spun, collecting him as Dillon and
Morris both got the outside wall. Dillon's spinning car also almost
collected Tony Raines and his #33 that were in front of them but Raines
escaped unscathed. It was doubly tough luck for Dillon, his third-place
qualifying effort here was the best he ever had in Busch series competition.

Jay Fogelman makes his final Busch series start and finishes a solid
12th, following up on his 11th in the final race. The USAR ProCup star
and the #68 team attempted several races later in the season but didn't
qualify for any of them.

And what have we got in their place?

Mile and a half aero snooze fests.

chief (Childers) all started in this race.

If you watch the broadcast when they did the lineups you noticed Dave
Blaney's picture not Tom Hubert's. Whoops. But did this race mark the
NASCAR tv debut of Bob Dillner? I think but I'm not sure.

Mike Hogewood and Greg Sacks were the commentators. Bob Dillner and Mark
Garrow were the pit road reporters.
