I was in victory lane with the media at this race and I got to see my
favorite driver win his frist race in five years!

This used to be called the Rebel 500, now it's named for a shopping
website? tsk, tsk.

Worst race for Dale Earnhardt Jr. ever...probably the worst car he has
ever driven, save for the Las Vegas race where they were way off and
that horrid 2000 Martinsville race where he hit everything including the
safety truck. Despite the conspiracy theories of why the racecar handled
so poorly, I realize now it was an equipment problem that happened. Good
run for Ward Burton as he would win the Southern 500 a year later
driving in a Dodge. Also the race where Joe Nemechek was pissed after
wrecking on the third lap saying "don't know what's going on thru these
guys minds, just not using their heads today..."

Sponsor:
#13 Robby Gordon- Menards / Duracell (He ran this sponsorship from the
second race of 2000 at Rockingham through first Talladega race including
the Atlanta and Texas DNQs). [Turtle Wax and CD2 were only associates at
this time]

Jeff Gordon's first lead lap finish of the year 2000. An
uncharacteristic struggle for "Super G" made him wait until race 5 to
finish in the winner's lap during his first full year with Robbie Loomis
as crew chief.

This was the first race with a single pit road instead of front and back
pits.

Sponsor correction
#40 Sterling Marlin Coors Light/"Silver Bullet"
Ran in both Darlington races, to promote silver bullet cans and an early
look at Sterling Marlin's 2001 scheme. Source:NASCAR 2001 Preview and
Press Guide seen in lower left corner of Mall.com results page, and seen
in main photo in Southern 500 results page. The only difference is the
number colors. Yellow in spring, red in the fall and close to his 2001
scheme.

With regards to Post # 9 above - Sterling Marlin was driving his regular
paint scheme in this race, The black front end with "Coors Light" in
white on the hood and the pale yellow rear quarter panels with "Coors"
in Blue and a much smaller "Original" above it in red. Jayski shows that
Sterling drove the Brooks & Dunn car for the race, which is also wrong.
If you look at the picture, the wall behind the car says Las Vegas on it.

Man this has to go in the list of worst race title sponsors...also I
just looked if this website even still exists and everything came up in
what I think is Chinese.

The sponsor website doesn't exist anymore. According to Google
Translate, the Chinese on the page (you're right, it is Chinese) states
that the domain name is for sale.

Dr. Jerry Punch, Ned Jarrett and Benny Parsons were the commentators.
John Kernan, Bill Weber and Ray Dunlap were the pit road reporters.
