I think this was the first installment of Mike Bliss' bizarre truck bed
celebration dance.

Bob Keselowski had a nasty flip in this race that broke the outside
retaining wall. He walked away.

Scratch that last post with the photo: Roper didn't run Brevak's trucks
until '97. Oh well, nice theory...

I think Kenny Allen was running one of Bob Brevak's back-up trucks here,
hastily renumbered 65, based on this photograph:

Think the hit with the end of the wall as a piece came off (truck went
partially through the newly opened area) overturned Keselowski.
Announcer later said he was 'on a roll'.

Mike Bliss did indeed bogey down on the back of his truck after winning
this race and he had good reason to after a wild last lap. Bliss had a
likely insurmountable lead at the end of this one but Nathan Buttke, one
lap down, nailed the back of Bliss and got him loose. The #2 ASE Ford
got a dented rear quarter panel but Bliss kept it straight as he drove
to victory lane.
