Scott Riggs lead only one lap, the most important one to claim his first victory of the year. Bliss finished 12th. David Green took over the points lead Notes: Ashton Lewis Jr. started on the pole for the first time in his career. J.R. Robbs made his BUSCH series debut. He finished 27th. The racetrack was evacuated approximately 3 hours before the race due to an apparent tornado at the track. Green's point lead was his first since 1994. 2.

Without any laps turned in, NASCAR did not approve of the #94 car being part of the race, and thus it was required by NASCAR to withdraw. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Post a comment:* Your comment may not appear immediately - all comments must be approved by the moderator.
