LeeRoy jumped Cale Yarborough and roared into the lead. A lap later, John Bruner, field director, gave LeeRoy the black flag, calling him into the pits for a stop & go. Cale Yarborough gained a commanding lead 29 laps from the end with 18 seconds in front of LeeRoy. Cale was never threatened down the stretch in winning the Atlanta 500 for the second straight year. LeeRoy has reduced the gap to 9 seconds at the checkered flag. 6. nascar_vd / racing-reference.info posted: 02.07.2016 - 12:13 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Note: starting lineup for this race is now available. 7.
