This was Andy Houston's first career Truck Series win. Right behind him
was fellow rookie Greg Biffle, who was in search of his first triumph
but settled for his first of two runner-up finishes that year.

Houston won this one with a bump and run coming off of four on the last
lap. It was fun to watch.

Back then everyone though that Houston would be a bigger star than
Biffle, shame really, he just signed for Wells too early, should have
stayed in trucks or Busch and waited a little longer, the Cal Wells
curse will get you in trouble! I wish Cal luck but no one since Craven
has done anything there and in fact he was the only one.

I really liked Houston. He would have done better if everyone weren't so
scared of signing him long-term. Both he and his brother were great
talents.

#97 Truck was driven by Tim Boulton, not "Bolton". this would be his
only career truck series start after DNQ-ing at 3 other races in 1998.

#78 Randy Renfrow qualified 5th but had to start dead last after post
qualifying inspection found "non approved engine parts".

First win for Houston's owner, Addington Racing, as well. If that early
caution hadn't come out it wouldn't have happened. At the drop of the
green flag Andy Houston started dropping back. They came in during the
caution and found a plug wire had come off, put it back on and were on
there way to a big day.

Ron Barfield Jr.'s 4th place finish here tied him with Dave Rezendes run
at Nashville the previous year, of the best finish in series history for
the #35, which still stands as of this post.
