first double volley winning here also and as for the remaining combat say Turkey field we need to do good in these racetracks no battlefield shows the new ruling order better than revered Darlington 85 Robin Hood Bill Elliott without jumping the Renaissance trio when his flashing swords slipped from his grasp the scoundrel with the big island smile and swashbuckling spirit kill each another one Tim Richmond he and his teammate Jeff what I have Britain the fastest team this year and Tim has produced the most winning battle pick this one particularly cherished by his crew chief Terry hi now Richmond sees something else just a little mightier than the store at the speedway it's not so much what happens at the speedway I don't think there's factors there that are good and bad but it's more what happens up here on the way to information the usual late campaign by Darrell Wallace has been expected a month ago it seemed to begin again winning at Bristol Tennessee but the offensive has suffered surprising repeats to once their forward a step backwards he sees this track the home track of his car owner Jimmy Johnson crucial to his personal Tuesday : the points the pressure of the point chase is nothing compared to the pressure of having to win this race so back to North Wilkesboro with flavors on cheese and a realistic possible gain of 100 point for any one driver Richland behind by 136 welfare points it's not whenever you come to North Wilkesboro it's unlike any other racetrack in the world there's a calm this year you're isolated there seems to be a confidence ring in the hill but on race day a very lost and enthusiastic crowd the biggest story this weekend probably has been the weather the temperature already here before the start of the race is 90 degrees and the humidity has risen to over 80 you had those two things together you come up with two very big words very joining me up in the ESPN broadcast booth today as he has so many times is one of the finest active racing drivers involved in television broadcasting today Benny Parsons Jenny would get down to this point of a NASCAR season and you talk about points but this you're different I keep getting all these confusing conflicting signals it is confusing she had a race on ESPN in Bristol Tennessee Darrell Waltrip won the race there's about five races ago when I left the racetrack after the L another point championship going to Darrell Waltrip we went to southern 500 in Darlington and then to Richmond Virginia Tim Richmond won both those races and I had to rethink my position so maybe Tim Richmond can be the next Winston Cup champion but here we are Northwest for a three races later and they learn our still has the same lead on Walter Penner and Richmond City had that an interesting thing happened this weekend in North Wilkesboro this weekend kind of represents the way the entire season has gone again a lot of surprises and all the things we probably didn't expect you know all the way up here to broadcast there's so many people in the fans stopped him you instead who's gonna win the race and I had to say I have no idea and I really don't know a couple of guys to look for Ricky Rudd been running extremely well the last three or four races and he finished your 'suck finished second here in the spring Rusty Wallace a winner last week in Martinsville Virginia and a guy who is so shocked is on the outside pole Billy Elliot who normally does poorly on the shorts right never on a short track spelled out in the pits will be dick Berggren the editor of stock car racing magazine and he right now is in the pit area of one of those eyebrow raisers of 1986 you're right Larry here's another surprise we've got a rookie starting in sixth position today Alan Kulwicki has beaten out such people as Richard Petty Dale Earnhardt and Neil Bonnett on the grid in a way it's not really a surprise because he's had a fabulous season this young rookie however is doing more with less than just about anybody on the circuit most people have a lot of engines you've only got two most people have six or seven cars you've only got one but you're in a tight points battle so how will you run the race to finish to win what are you gonna do Ellie well basically to finish the race the key on the start is gonna be to get to the inside and fall in line as soon as possible and and then experience really sort of dictates how you run the race we're gonna try as hard as we can to stay up front this race but we're a little conservative on the gear ratio here and if the track gets slick or I think we'll be in better shape later in the race early in the race I think the Chevrolets might pull us off the corners just a little bit but basically we're gonna try to stay near the front on the lead lap as long as we can and you know try a little extra harder later in the race that's the story for the sixth position Larry the best career start for this former star from the north today's NASCAR Winston Cup race is being brought to you by Ford and your Ford dealer have you driven a Ford lately and buy good jerky gold you either have good your eagle or you need them and by Exxon you can count on well that sets the scene for you here at North Wilkesboro North Carolina a guy who's been in the whole mini back in North Wilkesboro where the starting field is beginning to roll away and route to their first of all we anticipate to pace laps here is the starting grid starting on the pole which leave of Ohio lat Tim Richmond in the Folgers coffee Chevrolet this is personally is this night on the pole the 19th time in the front row first team on the outside front row is Bill Elliott who thought the bill George in the course board this is the second time he started from the outside pole on a short track row number two originally from Chicago New York Jeff went on to Levi Garrett Chevrolet he's at eight holes at 1986 and he is liked by Darrell Waltrip once the master of this track in the Budweiser Chevrolet rule number three the women are last week was Rusty Wallace the all you guard Pontiac new car number 27 and he is on flanked by Allen cookie the young rookie we've just talked to the quitsies family fake-out number 35 seventh position Ricky Rudd Devoto craft for the third Ford in the top ten and on the outside car number eight Bobby Hillin jr. in the Miller American doing now here's the rest of the starting grid it will happen very quickly we anticipate green next time death row fight Waltrip and Harry Gant row number six Morgan Shepherd Neil Bonnett the seventh row 13th and 14th position number 44 Terry Labonte former national champ and Baylor and aren't leading this year standing the eight bro 71 Dave mark is the man out of Wisconsin and 22 bobby allison winner of Talladega earlier this year the ninth row Tommy Ella Nettie first whale in row number 10 the 21st to 22nd position Richard Petty and Ken Schrader in row number 11 buddy earrings they're the guy who one time campaigned a Chrysler and Joe Ruttman disappointed in the qualifying run followed by Trevor boy Kyle Petty that Jimmy means and DJ all rigged Joe Milliken yeah he's returned Fred Elias and JD McDuffie anticipating cream this time Betty this is a tough one the call it is a tough one to call as I said as we talked about the over the show so many conflicting results coming out of here green flag to the Holly farms there quit tried that has been laid down and three and four shouldn't cause any difficulty the early rundown which doesn't mean anything it's Richmond Elliott side by side the bunny and Bobby Hill and Dale Earnhardt JD Marcus Harry Kent and BL Bona Dea look at Bill Elliott giving Tim Richmond the pole-sitter heavy heat early on in the race Bill Elliott last week is mark from Virginia ramp Barrett poorly on the short race track made up their mind when they came to North Wilkesboro they were going to do better there's the proof they're rapidly approaching already Eddie Bruce wall bats are know what happened and he was the yellow side by side with me they're gonna tell it to the inside Bill Elliott is moving on a dirt track that's watching this the owner bills car and his feelings very good up in Jackson Michigan he did run very well it at the Nashville Speedway when we were going over there but we haven't been the nice one a couple of years and racetrack everybody's on the schedule Billy other that's not been doing that well what's the fastest qualifier yesterday average of two days of time which we look at Helen Wicke being challenged by Morgan Shepherd the Lydian Holden passed in seven Elliot yesterday the second day of qualifying was actually faster than everyone they average more chipper in the 75 been driving that car since the southern 500 and the car has been right up front see Morgan get fired go right on the front various very good racecar driver particularly on the shorter race Alan Kulwicki tell you that he was basically geared for a slippery or a threat about 200 probably the 400 kids there goes Morgan Shepherd down the corner that made some slight contact which got Co wiki sideways carry the body birds up to you good turn good turns like a wiki nobody but better he was new to this five years ago but Gaia nobody learned quicker they took off the fourth quarter with you meanwhile back to the lead Larry the abridgement has closed up home fill in it has Darrell Waltrip right on their back bumper Eliot is not used to this position on a short track so early in the race I would imagine Benny Bobby Allison coming up the fourth quarter no I'm sure he didn't there comes print le the biggest fire think bomb people be safe bring it by your Killian trying to laughing around and go creddies oh I get a chance to get one of the contenders one lap down early and easy but it didn't work out didn't work yet there was the car joke Milliken looks like he had an engine problem just a moment ago came through the third and fourth corner smoking and then just a few seconds later Joe Bobby often spun out there's Kyle Petty in the pit the hood goes up on that automobile Kyle Petty who had a pretty good year on the short track spending particularly and recently but we're caution here for a harmless Bend by Bobby Allison we are under caution after just 14 laps here at North Wilkesboro Speedway where Bill Elliott has taken the lead Tim Richmond runs second we're going to take this brief pause here to go up north to Michigan where the Indy cars are performing at Michigan International this weekend we welcome you to Michigan International Speedway where the pepsi-cola 250 IndyCar race is underway we are under a caution period because of debris on the racetrack this is our second caution period the first one brought out by Roberto Guerrero who stalled on the racetrack there are the standings Bobby Rahal the leader Fittipaldi a second Mario Andretti is third Michael Andretti is in fourth position and Arie Lyon Dyke is running in fifth and outstanding performance by Lyon Dyke who started this race in 20th there's the leader Bobby Ray Hall for those of you now going back to North Wilkesboro North Carolina here are Larry nuber and Benny Parsons thank you Robert Roberto Guerrero had such a fine qualifying run this weekend Benny qualified number two on that super fast two-mile high banked oval Scott Brayton another one of the surprised top six qualifiers and Dennis Firestone here at North whoops things a little calm right now while all that was going on air again had a minor adventure and the dick Berggren is down in the pit area has been tried to assess what's been going on during these heavy-duty caution flag laps the early stages did but we've had a couple of cars into the pits already one of them was Harry Gant they looked the car over put a little adjustment in it and the same exact thing was done here in Bobby Allison's pit they didn't really change anything they just kind of looked both of those cars over meanwhile ladybirds rail has made several trips into the pit and for very good reason he had made an engine change the last possible hour this morning and apparently things are not quite all right with that car they did have to go with a much smaller radiator than they usually go already up to 96 degrees on pit road Larry dick another guy who has made a change that normally you wouldn't expect after qualifying in the polls Tim Richmond Vinny they changed the engine in that car after qualifying yesterday well they've been doing unusual things this year they've changed engines like that before I don't really remember the race track but they won that race they could do it and get away with it this year is proven to be anticipating green-flag this time around we're still in the very early stages the Winston Cup race NASCAR style at Georgia it's a big jump to the inside of rusty laws ricky rudd looks like he's ready to commandeer 5th place but there's a you see him on your screen at turn three and four my beats while I have mile racetrack coming down to the Elevens car working exceptional well I told them earlier this morning a mission after Martinsville they went home and sit down as today guys horrible let's fix this race car and there's a man there as a result evidently they fixed it well yesterday senator government lay that in anyway Tommy Ellis another one of the good very good short track drivers in Western countries rich was looking inside fill in it Eliot cuts him off nothing doing very well rich would seem to be a little bit better up in three or four five eighths mile bank you know that they go downhill they're going down the keep the raising line you should really hug to turn three and four like Elliott Richmond Waltrip are right now we've got a little more maneuverability you can get a little bit they go course we'll pull everybody hi outside passing lane hi geoff bodine back in for spot we can see right now that's Billy the ninth Tim Richmond in twenty five but the yellow car in fourth spot right there Jeff bodean he experimented just a little bit with a different line trying to find the outside see if the outside will in fact work or not Trevor boy has taken over the number 48 james hylton this week India's eighth ninth tenth and eight Marquez moves up and there is too much to moving to the inside of Bill Elliott and he is not getting Elliott even a moment's rest Richmond looks like he may have a good line this time we'll leave the tail of the tape as they go up hill down the backstretch Richmond gets a little bit of a boost he's no the inside and he's alongside in it one in turn three it's you earlier comes off it just moves up the racetrack kind of shoulders fill out of the way and takes the lead going down in turn one a bit now still a little bit too high he's got to protect second spot away from Belle Walter but Walter belongs to above it going down the back he's a long time that time Benny I think bill has plenty enough room to move back down in line let the train go by he just didn't take advantage of it well maybe I can stay outside of Tim and get something but you don't leave that little shaft of light for somebody like Carol wall are you sure don't and this is early on in the race there's no point in Phil Elliot really taking a chance on getting spun out this early in the race he's probably doing the right thing and he's moved up on the racetrack and the car seems to be doing pretty well up there all right it's Richmond Ellen welcome for second Bodine is fourth Wallace is a challenging fifth fret beyond his Morgan Shepherd shepherd starting position Bonni Paytas Bernard who has really charged up Dave Marcus has just moved in tonight there again is Walter by the inside of Phil Elliott as they counseled for death michael waltrip Neil Bonnett Joe Ruttman Johnny Ellis Ellis Richard Betty Jr Darrell Waltrip got my bill in it and bill was not able to get back down on the bottom of the racetrack now Jeff bodean they're trying to wake take away third spot you've got to be hard for us to get back down there because Wallace is closed shepherdess blow Sheppard is particularly good on short tracks and earned honors right there he smells Dale will kind of do the gentlemanly thing well he's in life Jeff bodean went by I feel that it was able to get down to the inside of the racetrack in front of Rusty Wallace Earnhardt has put on a very nice job here positions the point as he has for most of the 1986 position everybody is really quite close to Richmond geoff bodine still trying to use that higher line than three or four higher than any other car the best way around the race as they come off the second quarter one uphill down the back straightaway Walter able to keep Jeff but I minded but we see as they go in the corner photon this time stays on the bottom of the racetrack Tim Richmond who has total of my bowl North Wilkesboro has really shined his ability to Venetian the win and the placement spot after the main event that's first and second and to fuel them this year six on top to be exact well the crowd has started to settle now they've been spending all them three flag was wave they've been standing now they're starting to sit down because they realized there's a lot of the drivers are trying to feel that how strong the other cars are worth and how good they are there is the interval between person comes Richard vibrating lab Brett Elliott there is and the the flourishing grouping away third place car of Jeff bodean who is really going after scribed as what kind of master of North Wilkesboro Darrell Waltrip that's no correction compared to I know the outside mr. cub camp having to win at North Wilkesboro the reason for that is his car owner his shop is just down the road a few miles you can't run on a short track without getting battle scars Richard Petty I didn't see what and the grill is knocked in on the car and dick Berggren evidently was watching the action down there in don't what happened to dick okay Ben Richard Petty puddin all day one day like today what you do not want to have happen meanwhile chest up yet bro Rusty Wallace Cruz getting out as if they're ready to bring him in Morgan Shepherd and Holden looks like he has a planter and Jeff Conine has Wallace goes down pit road it passes down walked upon the outside very very good move on vote on last week rusty a race because of the efficiency of his pit crew right now they are being put to test he just went a lap down but it's something you can't make up Ellen we'll be back with details on that it's just a moment lots going on the first look will move you with revealing shapes that reveal even more about the overall design a design that's all-encompassing that embraces the entire line but there's an inner design beneath the surface that can only be felt when these cars are actually driven

Auto week racing team today third position and done look at the search he gets off the inside of turn number two he's coming off to and Darryl Walsh my all of a sudden just not able to get off the corners Barnard getting off the corner extremely well the inside there will and just suits mine like the other rocket on the hood or right behind them you see that orange and cream car because he is turning in a sterling performance he has been brooding hot and late if NASCAR racing he too has passed Darrell Walton position after starting 15 Benny Marcus is one of the swiftest cars in the track he's been following her now and Dale really hasn't been able to no he hasn't Dave parks doing a super job today I talked to some of the crew last night his own benefactor on the other side of the car Helen Ray Smith is here this week and she's had a birthday in the past so it may be Dave marks trying to give her a trophy Marcus definitely knows this place he still holds the official one lap qualifying record as you continue to watch wall shampoo dumpy Marcus's record or three just to give you an idea they were qualifying in the nineteen point six is seventh and eighth up top here this weekend but their record was set way back in April of 1981 Dave Marcus of the Chevrolet still holds the one lap track record here in North Wilkesboro and once Dave Marcus go around the racetrack we got a report of Bill Elliott they're Tim Richmond that temperate still leading the race of the Folgers coffee machine open the racetrack now is there he is right between Terry Labonte and Ricky Rudd in a spot pretty run night it's Richmond bowtie the teammates turn artists third Lourdes Park as we told you Walter the fifth Terry Labonte Elliot I think as long as the Johno laughs he had to come in for that that's true out together six seven eight is ricky rudd ninth is Joe Robin has been a nice charge Tommy Ellis is 10 bonded petit is 12 I believe and Alison has been able to hold on to late lab was to go back up front Bobby Allison 13th Harry again 14th went a little bit of extraña on a yellow flag lap and they ended up in the infield without losing a lap Kenny Schrader's 15th by the way just before the last break we told you the balance the wiki and hit the more of a touch and here comes earn are putting the pressure on the Jeff behind but Whitney had to come into the pits he made a pit stop lost lap but no significant contact earn are running very very well Brian look hundred coming off turn four the last time left in there if Bo Tong goes up the racetrack just a little bit be sure aren't we'll try it again 54 laps have been completed in the world 400 sold skeleton very early stages were just one paintable way through this by the way whether is here in that there is a threat of rain getting our on the roof before the race drivers Bennett certainly look like a rain cloud deposit their content those ears or 12 right now really don't understand exactly what that's all about meanwhile Dave arches great run and a day opponent is moving in a little bit we had an opportunity to talk to her earlier this week about the significance of the quest for Winston Cup points the pressure has been on him most of the season we're their races here when race race has been number one I think that's why we've done so well and still on top in the points that we've not let anything worry us if anything was gonna bother us that have been that incident I had my Richmond at the first of the season and we bounced right back from that and you know when owned and raced I think he's psyched myself out this year I don't think anybody could cycle Daryl Walter belt but you know I was just thinking they'll learn are just a moment ago some tight behind Jeb hold on I think his crew said look it's early let it rip let it go no race it because you'll get trouble dick Berggren is dollars Ryan contenders darrell waltrip Gucci Jeff you guys were pretending wait for caution flag might blow Jackson well the tricky part now the tightrope is that his leaders are getting into traffic and on a short track it's like a place like Talladega or Daytona where the other guys graciously let you go by it's really tough to work your way through traffic as we watch Tim Richmond hey Marcus can you believe this got a comment on it I know you're not seeing it right just has moved underneath Ernest has moved underneath Dale Earnhardt he is really moving to the front biggest by Filner non-date and easily his best day of next we mentioned that the last couple months finishes in the last four or five races he's led at least one four of the last five on that situation record here but he she is here today and Marcus said I want to give that lady a birthday present today boy when Marcus Michael win we know the last time he was a wooden company ESPN could this again be the day of Dave Marcus well we'll just have to wait say Dave Marcus runs in third the eller and ours and fourth Tim

continues to at least once Benny perkele here at North Wilkesboro Richmond who has led since the early stages when he took over from Bill Elliott who surprisingly living or they laughed Richmond had to jump on the green but Elliott under the relatively green track conditions and they not super heated tires bill has slipped back and Elliott is about last behind he's in seventh position still on the lead lap Dave Marcus look into the lawn looking under Jeff GoDaddy's alongside coming up has landed on the perfect setup a pair 80% humidity day there goes to the inside of his home personal good drive here today they'll learn are so Marcus go by and Howie I said look drew or not or whatever I've got to go Bob O'Donnell I'm going to be out of the race cause it listen to it like dave partin is going to the front it really does Benny Marcus is car lengths behind Richmond Bernard and Bodine are about three car lengths behind Marcus now it's been so seldom Benny that Marcus has been into a little bit of a danger that he has to safeguard against not getting carried away and remember this is a 400 lap race not a 100 left no Dave marks has been doing this a long time I think he's been a regular on the Winston Cup to her just about 1968 1969 he knows what he's doing it he's having fun right have a car there the last hundred miles of the Marcus originally out of insurance city up in the Midwest Wausau who is has started five times he's one two phrases to go up in Dover Delaware that one mile high banks rat when he finished fifth Tim Richmond on the box mentioned he's dead on the fall his speed or the pole was 113 miles and an average lap time for our 19.8 expected to be significantly slower here in the race slower than I thought Vinnie qualified two seconds emotions embracing that is a bunch there Dave Marcus trying to take the lead they're going down the back Treadwell wiki is in front of them though he's alongside Richmond the quarters of people around the oven up room they get up he washes out just a little bit Marcus will try to not jump Richmond make three lanes down the backstretch he's got me again even kidding turn to the right he's gotta turn up Dave Marcus chose to sleep season that he moves over now marks to the outside with the lead and meanwhile Andrew and get together I think we see that before haven't we Earnhardt and Richmond coming together and main Jeff Conine is alongside of Tim Richmond Richmond has to fight for his life to save third right that just a laugh ago he becomes leader you know Betty Marcus successfully anticipating just going predictable Allah would be was really a beautiful going in the race there we see the two getting together and going down in the corner that could be a bad time to funk both people save the car now remember a few laps ago when Marcus past day learn our Zimmer Stillman take involved underneath and around Dale Earnhardt and he appear to be faster than Dale after he got by him Marcus just an outstanding performance today easily is best for the last three seasons sure is meanwhile ernhardt looks like he's ready to get up with a partisan job dick Berggren has been trying to keep up with the progress of Dave Marcus which hasn't been easy because Marcus has put on the of anybody today we understand dick is with John Hall stage crew chief for today while I was James Louis at any rate Larry you can you guys just a smile I'll tell you what this is one highly motivated crew you're all jumpin up and down it looks like you're having fun yeah the lady that all the cars here okay that's the story on pit road Larry Dale Earnhardt with the Winston Cup championship up for grabs cleaned up is letting it all hang out here he apartments or side by side markets leaves another lap he needs to because there's five bonus twisted get boards if he completed left so that's why he's crying right to get up front but meanwhile Dave Marcus use it for the engine the end of 67 cars of pigs able to keep Bernard behind it Dave Marcus who spent Monday through Wednesday testing and building and tweaking hi a story and the others who are involved in that particular series we test driver one of the chief mechanics right yesterday and another one of the IROC people one of the full-time employees is starring here in this wood stood coverings earng are no longer a threat marks able to pick his all night around the racetrack and not have to worry about her being there when he goes in the corner Marcus is a little loose but you might expect that we're getting up to around lap 100 the track with this 90 degree heat today has got to be getting much slicker it is gonna switch we can see the cars as they come off the corner a little bit that's what Larry's talking about when he says loose but the real trick is as we go back to ninth tenth and eleventh there goes Tommy Ellis we mentioned that Ellis crew was very optimistic about this week and there he makes a move there Ellis trying to get by Rick you've got four if you run one to the drivers I'd talk about at the top of the show the karna bead at Richmond just a few weeks ago and at Barnesville last week and won the race at Dover meanwhile Tommy Ellis goes right by Ricky Rudd musician a couple of notes we mentioned just before one of our break for that little Vicki have touched the wall he did you know about in 20th position and get this many NASCAR has credited laughing closing the scoring line so he did accumulate that oh so important five bonus points for leading at least one left is the only one of the three musketeers there we see Billy Elliot being heavy pressure from Neil Bonnett Budweiser Chevrolet they come off the fourth corner on the outside pole and last weekend you know bill ended we might say these do it well penny and I talked about the surprises of 1986 and how they seem to continue this weekend here at North Wilkesboro and if that's not a big surprise Dave Marcus raising to the lead past all the favorite to win the 1986 date on the 500 Jeff bodean slide on the same XR motor oil you can buy in stores Exxon Uniflow for fuel savings and top protection against grinding friction protection against searing engine give your car the same protection as the Daytona 500 champion it's on Uniflow 10w30 motor oil I like the way it a lot I'll be finished certainly oh good I brought you some new fishing clothes hey those are nice thanks in fact I'll warm this afternoon from work to weekend's Dickies are America's favorite work clothes made with Celanese for toe polyester get that all-american feeling with live college football on ESPN on campus with the sights and sounds surrounding the nation's number one team with special coverage for that all-american feeling Cal State Fullerton tries to shut down the Tulsa hurricane passing attack an alive college football special Thursday night at 8:00 Eastern on ESPN a lot of things have happened since you were away none of them particularly traumatic you see michael waltrip kind of staggering away from his machine many Michael Donnellan to be in the development looks like the hood on the number 23 Pontiac Michael Pollan might so well in here at North books this weekend we meant to the Chet Philip had spun and as the yellow flag came out Bernard there's Chet Bilbo get back to that story just a second there goes Chet Phillip from Ozona Texas spinning down into the dirt off of turn number two there it goes Richmond going behind I there goes the number 17 of any first of all there is Dale Bernard who was second on the track before this yellow flag happened he raced side by side three abreast with Dave Marcus on the outside Bobby Allison the middle tried to preserve a lap now watch what happens oh boy that was close Marcus determined to keep Bobby Alice a lap down and Bobby got in the position he was in them he was the the Bologna in the sandwich he had to get out of the throttle well I'll tell you that's you talk about being between a rock and a hard place that is where Bobby Allison was and Allison unfortunately lost a lap I am still a little surprised even though it was Bobby Allison on a short track whenever you get an opportunity to put him a lap down you do it Marcus really let it all hang out for only one well as I said Dave Bart's been around a long time he knows what they're doing ba-bing house as you said he's a fellow with his race he never left them we've been inside Joe Ruttman scar certain times over the weekend we're going to take you in Racing Buick there you see those dangling image from the rearview mirror you know what that is that's a rabbit's foot told me they are willing to try anything this time I think that most people will agree this is the most successful team didn't have a win this year Joe Ruttman he had a this year had just been disaster for Joe every time that the cars been up front something always happens involved in an accident as mechanical problem but Joe Ruffin a good race car driver energy you mentioned Kenny Bernstein's Buick of top-notch team next year Morgan Shepherds gonna be driving this automobile and I think the ruttman it's gonna be moving to another team benny they've had a pretty good day you see five top-10 finishes and seven short track races he's had a good run also the last month he is the old Monon he had remained on the lead lap before this caution and he was scored as high as seventh position before this caution flag and all this mountain top right when I'm flying a real low altitude the last thing I need is trouble this Indy pace car is all stuck from the ground up and ACDelco parts help make it a little warm March should keep this car running right and your car - for the ACDelco retailer near you just give me a call at one eight hundred a seed Elko stay ahead of trouble with AC Delco parts this liquid can help keep your engine running cool prevent corrosion keep it from boiling over or freezing up what's in it how do you guard a premium quality antifreeze formula approved by all four major US car makers how do guard performing that you find in more than 70 brands of antifreeze but not impressed on the label tells you it's car maker approved antifreeze antifreeze without your car available now the place in total peace the race the East in three hours the history the birthplace of speed the challenge to find out who will be the best the showdown the Eastern three hours of daytona october 26 1986 Daytona International Speedway they toda beats Park East inch Daytona the showdown don't order the way and Richard Childress Albertina crude job Dave Marcus who actually lost two positions Jeff bodean comes out of the pits at second Marcus's third Richmond fourth Waltrip fifth Labonte sex then bonnets seventh Ruffman eighth Ricky Rudd ninth and Richard Petty 10th green flag back action they'll learn our it has Bobby alpha right behind is Bobby every soldiers ammonia if all you got money outnumbered particularly in recent weeks I would think that's the car to watch right now wallets gonna think I'm only a lap down and still relatively early in this race this has got to be my big chance Dave market moves by thrusting on the outside the street that they in Marcus for the weakness of Rusty Wallace at this point and look at his own got one of the incas off most people on our last test because he went right by temperance there in the body found us think he spotted the track for him but those Goodyear Eagles just kind of grabbed ahold and hurtled him forward going inside to Joe Ruttman there is you see of following the Obon achievement the last 15 minutes you see the rabbit's foot peg-legged Joe Ruttman to the Quakers dig doing way to get around Neal seven Romani going down the match right away right on the bottom of the racetrack right up against the curb the white thing you see there that's three four inches high the car just as tight down to the inside of the class beginning now right down to the car innovation raisin broadcasting in the 80 the in-car camera Lloyd yo rubba trying to get alongside me about it they're going down in turn it'll be on very very close these cars are so equal going back up London dealer now just watching and Rutland being simple position Joe Ruttman Larry McReynolds and Joe told me earlier today yeah they were surprised and disappointed confused they all kinds of emotions about what they thought was a disappointed qualifying run yesterday but a lot of confidence for today today but was happy and personally about qualifying yesterday is right now with my culture it looks like you had a hot time in the car this afternoon what caused the fire well I guess some electrical wiring got again stuffing caught on fire I couldn't breathe you know why they send money I came back together in this way running pretty good he's got a rookie battle he's trying to beat Alan Kulwicki to win that title this year so that's why he wants to get back in so badly Benny they both and his Ellen and he qualified well yesterday but the race hasn't been they're liking the advantage over Michael he would really like to get back into Michael I'm sure he would they learn are just a few laps ago after the caution Mike pulled away from the rest of the field they are closing up and closing up very rapidly Bobby Allison who has a problem while these other cars are just that back right now well a moment they are all within in tenth position in front of him look at the tenth nineteen eight positions we were talking about and Bill Elliott you can see how close they're all running Gary gasps right then in there Richard good old short track race near the middle stage they are Neil bond is not Ruttman now has a straightaway on bottom so Neil evidently having some problems Bobby's change tires he's got to try to get by the best he can until they can make another pit stop all in all bill then they have to filter short track performance right lovey averaging about a hundred and before shutting off these of us going into these corners Bobby Allison just a moment ago got underneath the 3 car of Dale Earnhardt as they went down he wanted to where the racetrack Bobby back down up fighting to get his lap back Jeff bodean his third right now in line he's second in the race Jeff Conine has been around short tracks fro long this is where he began though he began in the open weiners but codeine still has a lot of experience on this type of track Jeff o died the swiftest of 1986 talked about that very thing yesterday to us top racetrack the easy ones but this is a tough one but it's wide enough and design the fashion that you can smart the guy or make him run a little too hard and get underneath name so I like it here the people get enthused about this type of racing they really get into it here works world I love their short track drama shaping up up front there is Alison fighting not only Earnhardt but also tried all the position now another verge of getting this hot bath he's alongside urn on the hill if he can just move sail up the racetrack a little baby all habits but they'll coming back real strong job is to get down low if he can going to the three and four he can now they're going to go downhill Alison gets a nice - Lena a little bit more rpm working for once you move up the racetrack you get more rpm Bobby looking good right now he's about a Carly he was the last lap napping is shoot fire come up the racetrack a little bit the Allison makes important now beau died trying to follow through this mode i nudges Dillard our move them over to the altitude at Zoo that's right Road I'm looking real good I have a Harley phone yes he has the lead Jeff meanwhile father now in 22 a 5/8 of a mile and Marcus has moved underneath turnout also engaging market specialty origin dream number 71 his Chevrolet back into second spot again the Chevrolet of Jeff Conine Dave marks the keys head up about his brother this afternoon right now second place looks like a close-up on bowtie public are links behind him and being while jiff photon run on the back of her father not me fight for the league professional racing drivers talk about running 99.5 depending upon whatever the particular factors of debt raised at that time are right now only one factor for Bobby Allison do whatever I can as we look at Marcus's think about the possibilities of him winning this race should he do so he would be the thirteenth different winner of 1986 in Winston Cup racing last night at Bruges mount North Carolina the Orange County in the grand national series and Marcus duplicate that here today see you know a lot of cars out there have ride problems why it may be there Springs especially when you load up they can cause say or bottoming out now there's a solution cargo coils by moved different from standard Springs let me show you why these closely spaced coils smooth the ride and cargo coils have these stronger coils to take over when you load up so when you hit the road don't hit the road get a pair of MU cardinal coils at your mechanic or auto parts store on the track or on the road it all boils down to dependability and these two words spell dependability best sealed power sealed power piston rings at the heart of a complete engine parts line that really delivers dependability right Waddell I'll tell you what if I could find poor spinner and seal power I'd use them sealed power piston rings sealed power engine kits and sealed power parts you can't do better when you want an engine to do its best the labors of Bobby Allison have been rewarded were under caution flag and a caution flag this reason the only Oldsmobile in the field you don't see this too often even though you sure don't Joe Ruttman moved along side turn Labonte Terry comes down the hill just touching Joe just touches the left rear of Perry's Oldsmobile and around he goes when you're coming off the corner of the cars trying to spin out already it only needs a slight push and around it goes yeah and you know to make the call on that it sure looked like this Ruttman had the line he wasn't moved up about a half a lane but he was on the inside and normally it's responsibility they guy on the outside - a boy - fell on the inside well that's right you're supposed to know he's there although sometimes it's very difficult everybody in of course should remain as they were before the yellow flag although interestingly enough bow dine and Marcus and earn are I think stayed out everybody else seemed to come in we have had six leaders in this race including the most current run Jeff behind there is a tire mark on the outside of Terry Labonte's car a steam bill and crew go to work that crew will be intact for next year and they will be hosting a brand-new driver Sterling Marlin has been announced as the probable replacement I got a piece of information last night many that Marlin has not officially been released from his contract with Hoss Ellington yet but its problem well they had a press conference up in winston-salem and he must headquarters last week and an acid Sterling Marlin would be the driver but we still give reports out of Wilmington North Carolina headquarters of Hoss Hamilton that that far as they're concerned sterling bar has still third driver next year so internally as thought he has two choices go either way fuel in the in the 44 car the people on Airlines Oldsmobile Wayne King and Billy Hagen the bullseye barbecue consultants part based on the performance of hostas number one car this year's not a bad choice weekly deep between the two of them although you never know the legal ramifications which are involved we obviously haven't seen the final chapter of that story yet but at 44 cars pretty fair country racer to be kind of available it's a very good car available we're looking at Jeff Conine and Levi here at Chevrolet the leader that spin happened that Terry Labonte just executed right in front of Joe rub and look what happened moving out of turn number four down the front stretch the spin will happen coming out of turn number one Robert goes to the inside of Terry he goes down the inside NC when Terry comes back across the racetrack just gets touching the left rear by Joe Ruttman around he goes now we'll look at it in slow motion you can make your own call it's real difficult to assess from the in-car camera what's going on but you can see rubbing in his line Harry makes a left turn seemingly a little sudden you cannot really see from the for angle right there but obviously the fenders touch you know Bobby Allison he fought his way back got in the lead lap did not pit when the caution came out did not pit when I way around the racetrack all the cars between in he was raced before in position when in the pits now he goes from lap down or right in front of the leader you believe that that's a four spot on the racetrack some face okay dick Berggren you got something for us yeah I do as a matter of fact Larry from my observations down here in the piste this is shaping up to be a very very rough race I would estimate that right now at least 50% of the cars are marked among the frontrunners we've got Earnhardt Rusty Wallace Tim Richmond Dave Marcus Richard Petty Neil Bonnett all with tire marks on the left sides of their automobiles and I would say on the pit stops that we've seen probably one car in three is taking off a tire with somebody else's paint on it you can tell from the roar that we've gone back to green yes it's true Jeff what I we mentioned the most Rusty Wallace in that metallic blue Raymond beetle all you guard number 27 is trying to get his lap back right his heart is to get his lap back he's got a long side so dine on the restart and now tries to get a long spoon side to another corner very well right now 40 cars run the lead all that most recent rash of pitstop the first floor the rate code I'm Marcus Earnhardt Alison Bobby Waltrip Eliot Neil bottom inside Joe Ruttman scar now the and the number 44 car terry labonte that's how petty right is mother Morgan Shepherd automobile a Joe Morgan Joseph's okay alcohol and goes my account betting down in turn three right on the bottle eraser Yost Cardona you kind of like the race that Robin runner that's been a smooth ray I found that holy couple positions but he stays in this all day number three that you can in the number Hill they're the banks will just reach out and grab you not like being a talented kind of idea outside the box I know decision spot Richard Peddie goes blowing by meanwhile 111 these several laughter Joe Rodney said here is the starting lineup first heat off the pole in car number 98 on the outside the 33 air again that's what I used to say about 15 years ago that's what it looks like the lineup for the first seat that's what in-depth look at my mom EOS they're walking on here in color example what the meaning of the word trust is yes yeah Walter certainly has to trust Bobby house as he comes off that corner to know that Bobby's not going to come up the racetrack and pitch him into the outside retaining wall meanwhile Fabien and Darrell side by side right from the door wanker state Buick I'm inside the cars they try to move to the outside of Ken Schrader there is a view of what it looks like both ways as the people here the grandstand as Joe Ruttman see on the right in the grandparents really interesting shot great job guys out there that is really Bobby else's meanwhile and now Ricky Rudd your Bible these guys are battling for that at this stage of the race that's just terrific raising Wallace is connected right to his rear here's where the real action is where you are right now and there stay alert aren't into three the the three car that's Barnard and hopes he did not stop did not change to me it's gotta be a family Darryl walking trying to take that away from him Joe Ruttman so Bernard definitely named those blue tires he did not stopping you excuse me that's just stop Walter fix it no racing here at North Wilkesboro never been any better right in the midst of it many thanks to Joe Rutland Kenny Bernstein Andrew you have been watching what's been happening on the racetrack and inside the race car I'm the kind of person who knows what he wants in life from the clothes I wear to the car I want them to be right and when my car are you tired of being refused for a car because of past credit problems high down payments for no credit

your best bet is with bet now how the st. Louis Cardinals plan to stop Hershel Walker on the zenith NFL Monday night matchup the Cowboys have the best backfield in football but the Cardinals say their defense is ready ESPN spotlight the NFC Monday night at 8:30 Eastern Benny used to happen now here's what's going on the lefty left there's first place yeah we expected that he's been there third position yeah that's Richard Petty he's on the lead lap Harry get right there in the bottom your speed is at second mark - v ricky rudd his sixth enjoy Robert a seventh but Richard Peddie is up there and having one of his better days he's getting ready to challenge for second position he is getting on hair again hair again to the scope bandit change some tyres he thought his way up to second place and Richard Petty is coming off he has to do tires yes pressures higher there Jeff vote on who currently is leading the race Richard Petty is tied and the enterprise's actually here I suppose they're busting his boat's at one time maybe Richard would never win again here Dahlia this is like the Richard of old he's getting ready to doused and do battle for up front for this is the type of racetrack that Richard Petty has always been so successful at it's Cod today folks and these cars are slipping and sliding all over the speed back in the quarter that's what Richard Petty's car the pay the enterprise the scarf cover the front that's what they million-dollar six foot six zeroes behind it in his career as a Winston Cup end grand national stock car driver is 49 years of age this year and he's looking like a 49 year young the alignment of course cousin has been the crew chief in 1986 returned to a team that put together all those glory years when Richard width $2,000 this year the phoenicians has been a third and rocky Hammond because of that even though five host standards that's a good season the pressures on Richard a little bit night not having those years like he had in 1960 and 1970 and logically a lot of questions are being asked and Richard and well Richard as we wind down the season is the pressure really on for you to win a race or the other teams who have not yet won well yeah definitely you know you go through a whole season not win any races but you know you're looking at a standpoint if you win a race you get on the winner's circle you it means so much monetary wise but it means so much sponsorship deal as far as their goal next year trying to put you step together and it gives it all the boys that work on the bar booze so that when you start in the next year they said when we finished up a good year and you know we're ready to go again the winners of 1985 who have not won yet in 1986 Richard was witless Harry Gant Neil Bonnett Gil Yarborough who runs the rebated schedule and Greg sacks we've already commented the Jill repin is still looking for career with number one but we've had so many winners this year it's hard to believe that there are four or five hey Marcus is another real candidate could win one here who was that $75,000 it was Richard Freddie alongside her again in the people are holes their feet cheering Richard all Richard ghost my hairy just way of life mine and he's got his eyes set on the front many of course won the Invitational down at Atlanta earlier this year but the real right yeah but nice nice payday was a good faith puts many into the Winston for next year but many beautiful poll this year still looking for a race to win taking a shot got a couple's Super Speedway races coming up here where more chances at anyway but meanwhile back to the race Richard Petty number 43 has just gotten around number 33 shouldered by Harry he's got a ways to go to Geoff Bodine and Benny both you and Dick were making a point during the most recent commercial about boat I'm not changing tires showing us something he is really showing something I I'm sitting here watching the race while we were all commercial and I am most impressed as I was last week in horns while I was there for that racing watching the race in Jeff Conine was super impressive and he just drive it away there is Jeff you know Betty I thought last week after what happened at Martinsville on the surface immediately probably would have liked to chuckle and laugh and maybe criticize Jeff but the way he handled the situation in at the race you know it was real it was honest that I really admire him for he lost a race to the pitch he had him covered on the racetrack and because of what went on on the pits he lost three he came in he was angry he went to hit himself and those us to know him well recognized anger and he sat down he collected the spots he came back out he thought about all the good things that have been happening are happening and are going to happen he said well yeah we lost disappointed but we're going to come back they have and unless something happens he's gonna make shadows by this thing Petie if he can do anything about it he sure will because it's been a long time had a win firecracker 84 number 200 was the last one so we're more than of President Reagan at the last night Richard Petty won this President Reagan don't see them up here in the press box but Richard still might have a good day anyway Rusty Wallace had that unscheduled pit stop and hadn't lost a laughter tonight as well as anyone on the racer they're up in the upper right hand corner Jeff Conine lap around the racetrack just a moment ago we time Tim Richmond he friend let's see if Jeff what I could do yes 21.4 have second fashion that Richmond was running so that's pretty good speed right now this rate so quite halfway but incidentally as we watching the king has made its position in this racy yet why did Jeffrey of losing the lab as we start to stopwatch as you and dick both come up here and down caution flag with with Geoff Bodine is sure humor time and Richard Peddie 21.5 Jeff go time but Richard pastor a clear track so it was a his fourth right now is one 550 and written in his second year - they'll learn art in the spring race bumper up darrell waltrip doing a very good job in bud Morse in contention this he's out running derald that much Hank worried but it it's obsessive getting by when you think short track particularly in 86 think is a wily veteran turn ricky rudd there have been six short track races he's had three crashes the other three races de finished he's had two seconds to the first so Ricky Rudd and blood war and somebody to keep in mind he right now trails darrell waltrip on the track and everybody trails Geoff Bodine who has been mister speedo Reno of in 1985 the winning cars are the most prestigious auto races were equipped with Goodyear racing Eagles so it's small wonder that in 1986 most of the finest high performance street cars are equipped with Goodyear Eagles you either have Goodyear Eagles or you need them you know we're one of the toughest teams in racing because everything we do we do as a team now getting a winning team like us to switch motor oils isn't easy but when we saw how much more horsepower we got with sicko well it was a unanimous decision even though it was my idea Citgo the one oil tough enough to make you switch of course our old oil was a bad in fact we'd be happy to recommend it to anyone racing against us the first look will move you with revealing shapes that reveal even more about the overall design but there's an inner design that can only be felt when these cars this is for to give you never be bored my team auto parts dependable I backed by a mighty guarantee I next time go with a mighty pro he knows what it takes to keep your car in shape if you're a racing fan you are exactly where you need to be for the rest of the day at 4 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time later this afternoon here on ESPN the Kart Indy cars from the Michigan International Speedway for the pepsi-cola to that speeds at well in excess of 250 miles an hour peeking it 200 great points battle going on in cart bobby ray all picked up a point or being fast qualifier the rained out Elkhart Lake IndyCar race last weekend Rick Mears sitting on a pole once again at Michigan International Speedway while we waited summer shil Jeff Bodine in the five Levi's Garrett Cheryl I put the bill Elliot for a laugh bill who ran so strong earlier all qualified outside poll today Jeff Conine that's how strong he is right now has the lap filled out and he's white behind Tyrael upon his old foe bill to put Emma left is about to be lapped by Jeff bodean as we look at second place Richard Petty going around JD big dumpy Richard Petty continues to be oh it's been about a quarter of a straight away from Jeff bodean here comes Jeffrey off of turn number four breathing down the to feed my car the middle of the racetrack take every advantage that he can to keep in the lead left but no Jeffcoat on just too strong dies inside of it going to turn three bottom of the racetrack the Bonnie get stick down there Jeff vote on clearly passes going down and turn one now Alaric yeah right in front of Jeff go time he is they learn are just like half straight away in front of Jeff Conine teaser there he is right in the screen and we see how close he is to becoming a lap down you know Betty we haven't talked about points very much in convention Earnhardt you start thinking about points Waltrip right now is fourth in the race Richmond is eight and Earnhardt is 12 so the two pretenders to the throne so far at 1986 they're gaining a little bit of ground on Dale they sure are meanwhile earn are really have it wrong getting around a racetrack Geoff Bodine you can closer and closer every left any shredder the only car between scorann bowties car to be the fastest writing speed on the racehorse this year involved with floor raises areas moving in he has been the biggest leader the most significant leader in a race nine he has led into 20 of 24 races on the 1986 trail he has led the last 15 now makin 16 races in a row and to be looking in that big rearview mirror all he sees right now is Levi's Gerrit Cole and Neil needs to stay in the lead lap he needs to fight Jeff Conine chooses male to stay in the lead lap but can he afford to let the chair in the balance I don't think he moves over Lesko dine goat both of these guys fail to stop on that last caution on lap 129 that was 60 70 laps ago both of them are on old tires both of them have to be thinking about coming in in the next 15 minutes look at the difference in the performance Gary Nelson set of tires Joel and shove her deed I was going to say Shelburne even Richard children and they'll learn art they touch and meanwhile Rusty Wallace I don't know exactly he thought they is fun for the two cars although several car lengths Dale Earnhardt there the quarter go dine Lake ceasefire Nardi I've seen Harrigan and Richard Pini run but North Wilkesboro one of the race Rusty Wallace goes by the gives them away Krusty gives one to Kenny and many boots over rusty gonna go to work now rusty is a lap down to the leader although he's in strong trying to stay within striking distance right now once he gets by Earnhardt the leader of those cars that are one lap down rusty runs in make that 12 position with her nard in 13th position they are the only two cards no there are two more cards I guess that are no they are the only two that are one lap down well that was four position but Rusty Wallace has hooked up Earnhardt just got some serious serious problems with his automobile and I don't know how much longer he's going to stay out there and try to fight the car minion don't be near the ku is it a matter that it may be that the tires just doesn't work right with the springs you have on what that swaybar set at whereas if you have another set of tires they might work just perfectly you'll never know exactly what's going to happen those tires once you put them on there meanwhile Caleb on his old mobile goes by Schrader he's got his eye on for another position this is yet another race that has been dominated by crew chief Gary Nelson and driver Jeff bodean in the levi garrett car we are now halfway away around this race boat inés got him covered they say the best ones of the hardware these are don't break old you try to reach an agreement and when you do your head for the mountains pork head for the beer brewed natural as a mountain stream for a taste to spoon visits name for the first look will move you with revealing shapes that reveal even more about the overall design a design that's all-encompassing that embraces the entire line but there's an inner design beneath the surface that can only be felt when these cars are actually driven Ford today design like never before for over a hundred years hunters could always depend on one brand of ammunition Winchester load up with the legend Winchester with 200 of the corner laps of the North Wilkesboro Winston Cup race now we bring you the Napa mid race report to buy your neighborhood Napa store with Kathy boudin in the background whose house was doing reasonably well after 200 laps the average speed almost 93 miles an hour there had been three caution flags for a total of 18 laps and all there had been six different leaders there had been six lead changes among the six of them the last leader at the halfway point was Jeff would I he had met a total of 78 laps dominating this race they were 12 cars to the lead lap and 26 of the 32 qualified still running the cars out of the race the return of Joel Milliken and the car out of Richmond Virginia Trevor boys in the James Halton the Hilton's car DK Hallward was his own driver this weekend and Jimmy means has shown a brand-new body work this week into our club and also trapped from the events dick Berggren has been watching the proceedings down pit side and dick bring us up to date to drink well there you can expect some pit stops coming up here fairly soon 20 laps ago very very soon about five or ten more left cars are running very long we had speculated earlier than women and over a day travel I've worked at leading into his radiators all pushed in letting little air go through it no problem we got no overheating we're running this line to the left of dicks head was the picture of Jeff Conine who was leading this race Richard Petty a second hair again his third Darrell Waltrip is fourth and Ricky Rudd his fifth way back with the Ranger of the race catch a wave and coast on over to Surf's Up there's three big rooms offering the

a talented Aussie team the Davis Cup semi-finals starting Thursday at midnight Eastern on ESPN Sundays have us swing in good time with AWA wrestling you'll feel every bone crushing blow Sunday's on ESPN NASCAR's Holly farms 400 from the North Wilkesboro Speedway North Wilkesboro North Carolina and this portion is being brought to you by Quaker State the big jus stands for quality always has always will and by bush beer the beer was a taste as smooth as a Bertrand has been keeping us well updated from the been each point of a very hot steamy pit row Nick how you holding up okay down there tell you what it's hot down here Larry there's black asphalt pita pit road one hundred a hundred Jeff bowtie is red-hot on the racetrack in one in the race where if the drivers gonna have any conscious thoughts about the heat and uh jeez how tired I am particularly with Jeff having seen nobody coming at him in his rearview beer for quite some time and that's what they treat me in right now but I sure do because around the racetrack there's no real serious racing right now if the race ended right now here turn our 37:59 gibberish 36 darrell waltrip 3631 so Walker seems like a minor point no we're not overselling it because particularly in a day when the temperatures are above 90 humidity more than 80 even a slightest little bit of debris up when the front looks like a towel or something spinning it looks like something pretty big and there's air needs to go through that gorilla through that bottom part of it who's the thing down and if Darrell isn't watching the water temperature engaged mostly it could overheat back to that point situation waltrip by the way would pick up 30 on Earnhardt his would shrink 15926 Richwood pick up 18 points from 136 to 118 so everyone in right now they would all make a little bit of a dent the I would suggest as we go back up the man who started the day with the rain up great deal of optimist big enough dent or the leaders misfires Bernards point stick go ahead as long as earn our skill their chances of gaining that much Jeff bodean put in the kids place part Tommy Ellis just go to the front and stay in there while Richard Petty Eric can't make any progress on them and the next car in front of Jeff Conine is the 71 from Dave parts about Marcus of a plan we also have well so I will many there was an interesting moment as we run the clock with an interval between first and second position you see five point six seconds back to Richard Petty interesting moment there couple laps ago when a couple of old modified and in the case of tell me let's not a modified driver but a short track we'll have a history of being very firing waves at Tommy Ellis as he went by Tommy moved over gave Jeff just enough room to get five there's something you wouldn't see by six you see got Bedouin J well I think you probably would see what it's this is a different situation twisted Cup racing is so totally different than the Saturday night races at Bodine and Tommy Alice has done so much up because to these races is so much different bending talking about vote on we're making reference out there are two of the very best examples I think the entire world of racing during drivers both of them had a history back 10-15 years ago being fiery and a kind of guy like porcupines but they have matured so much well this race drivers an individual really you want to be around the pizza dough with the government's they have the cured very well your have never seen this side of it with so many people talk about there we see Jeff Bodine on the screen right now I have never seen the side too many ways too many different people but right now he isn't afraid to our sport of I must have come along at just the right time because the very first time that I ESPN broadcast Lincoln goes back to like 1980 on the mild dirt at Syracuse and I just been a prince to me I never saw what I've heard and read about from Florence it's been that way from the very beginning water running fourth position Ricky Rudd and earlier in the broadcast about how strong how consistent rut has been on the shore in 1986 the East Haven right in there there's any verse well in the number 17 car Roger Hamby by the way Judy done let me this week that Bob Johnson who used to do chief for Ron Bouchard and Ron first came up to Winston Cup racing right around the outside of biryeo I think Bob just will be a definitely an asset to that automobile that was driving for Jackie B working on see them a few times back you need let me know quick recap again to the top runners guys in the lead lap myth his dick they fight for business let's dr. Cruz getting ready for chef bill down there meanwhile yes Jeff Conine coming down pit road did Brooklyn is there we'll make the call in the and it's a green flag pit stop betting that means these guys have really got to work together and they've got the word mark and they should be able to tire changer eddie dickerson Peter's got his job done 14.7 these guys practice more of other people's business they watch Payton's of their own we're not going to get me Richard Peddie becomes the race leader the king is on top here he comes roaring on TV we're of that kind of acknowledge that in Richard Petty like days of old that's all until few years ago it's back on top nearly let's see a 14.7 pitstop if an 18 or 20 second pitstop is a good one and the one thing that happens is now Rusty Wallace is in front of Richard Petty yep there's a constant light that comes out any time soon Wallace would be able to get in a lap back be on the lead left with the leaders now bo9 was able to stay on the lead lap allison comes in allison was also green flag snap floor Bobby boat on right now is about three-quarters of a lap behind the leader Richard Petty there is Tim Richmond and Dave Marcus they have been up there all day long their 6th and 7th right now Marcus has been behind Richmond but hasn't really been able to challenge him 30 minutes Tommy Ellison making good stuff looks like Marcus might be ready to make his move as Alison is out comes out of fuel evidently the car normally should do closed five seconds longer than what he wanted to but he's bad gun on the track of the aspects of Winston Cup racing is where exactly in the racecar weight is headed in the car you have to have an overall total weight but where it's at is also very important blocks of lead like these are commented for Winston Cup competitors to carry in their haulers the reason that they need them is that NASCAR requires the cars to weigh 3,700 pounds but the chassis builders make the cars as light as possible they cam these 50 pound weights here into the frame rail that they can properly balance the cars make the suspensions work a little bit better there's a movement of which to try to cut down the minimum weight on the cars which would eventually eliminate the need for these LED block right there is the leader the STP oil treatment special Richard Petty the familiar pity blue and has kidney orange colors he's on top we're more than halfway through the Holly farm 400 Richard Peddie talks about his all-time driving headaches now that was a goodie really cool that was another key they told her 82 that was definitely a goodie I've won over 200 races but I've had over 700 headaches so just take it from me goodies get through the plain fact and that's what counts Goody's headache powders and extra strength tablets and I'm John Pittman where they honored to banker Mortgage Corporation as one of Pinellas County's largest home owned and operated mortgage bankers we specialize in FHA VA and conventional home today we have nine convenient locations throughout the Bay Area give us a call at three to seven 1088 copy hot coming looking from the pit area of Richard Petty the top five petty again Waltrip Rudd Joe Ruttman all five of them have had solid steady days there are no inherited positions there they've all reached for it Dave Marcus has been one of the driving stars the North Wilkesboro of this afternoon Richard Peddie who started the season out with a crash at Deakin after a great deal of offseason optimist and his best finish at Rockingham just the third race of this year when he finished third three races ago he for the fourth Richard Petty having one of his better days as we watched Richard Petty come off the corner followed closely by Bobby Allison as we mentioned moment ago Bobby Allison made a pit stop and I really believe Bobby was out of fuel so he is a lap down to Richard Petty right now and with the fresh tires on his car he should be able to pass Richard and hopefully get himself back in the lead lap and you saw the screen a reference to those two top-five finishes for 1986 he still horse leaves everybody with 200 career wins just to wrap up by the way case for God David Pearson his second on the career win list with 105 Cale Yarborough's they're putting a lap Richard is putting Lance on the Ellis Bobby Allison tuck right in there Cale Yarborough's nerd was 83 Bobby Allison is fourth speaking about a hobby Ellis with 82 and Darrell Waltrip fifth you see this race going on right now between Tommy Ellison 18 Richard Petty at 43 and Bobby Alton for you a moment ago with Jeff Conine put Tommy Ellison lap down Jeff Conine amidst opposition petit is now the leader so Tommy if he stays in front of Richard stay on believe after this Bobby house is a left now he's trying to get very good minion Allison looks like he's got enough momentum to get around Richard we think that Bobby is two laps down however earlier under green flag conditions so Bobby's got a lot of work cut out for him dick Berggren is right now down in the dealer now screwin many we've talked about being surprised and Dale hasn't come in for fuel into right now and over my shoulder Tim Richmond screws getting ready to fit him they're preparing Alison anyway this racetrack Betty is notorious for a long green flag segment and it really scrambles the standings because we've talked many times yeah it's okay the Jeff when I pulled off a fourteen point seven second pit stop he may have taken anywhere from 10 to 20 seconds slowing down to get in they I'm here actually stop here a moment ago Bobby Houston trying to get his land back on Richard Petty go down in turn one body gets to the left river it's got a tag and touched Richards car goes sideways both of a packed up they save the car they're back Rachel again this live shot we're seeing right now you know I bet to the two of those guys have touched twice before you know I'm a 12-2 other time well two in two of the real veterans hee-hee 94.7 mile-per-hour average after 250 lat average speed best of all at this race was 110 miles and we've had probably much too many cautions in this race to approach that track record average speed for the 400 laps here at door close meanwhile Jeff bodean is put Richard Petty but you know this really had some as far as they as far as Travis Carter and his stove ended through there was a Jeff bodean going and that is a race for position Robin has remained on the lead lap watch for bowtie there on the Tim Richmond right ahead Jeff Conine going around the outside of Joe Ruttman and that mobile Joe back to Sexton temper back up to fifth so excited is that when Richard Petty and the other drivers start hitting two tires or four tires are they going to change - on the hopes that there will be a caution flag suit so they can go in and change the other tires for or they will take it and how the situation works out baby who ends up when at the race Jeff bodean he can't make it the rest of the way Joe rubbish bar we're watching these behind they lead by Garrett I will build while we watching that they barkis's in the pits they're jacking on the right side of his car there we see a shot of him dick Berggren is down with the date Marcus will and Marcus is doing a very best hit son told me they have Megan - right is gone that has been the strategy of every team that has out of here in a big hurry two hundred and fifty eight laps many our town from here on in future penny course continues to lead probably should be able to go to distance mark has changed the right side he did not stop all that cars who played before so he still have a tremendous amount of left on his left side I think that he'll have to stop before so please change left side the trainer who has won more races than any in history here at North Wilkesboro Richard Petty 15 times to be exact misleading his race Derek they went penny may be gone after

completely but he sure his waking it up today he sure is Richard Petty runs very very well lay marker right in front of Richard Petty he made the pit stop a moment ago and lost a couple of laps he got one on back there was the seal bodies in the bits and the filling inside the car making a serious chassis adjustment to the steel body part he still turning that bowl area and I tear they're drilling that left rear just into the ground Betty Lord Wow Neal Bannen getting some real chassis adjustment here's old me when they turn that boat back there they just turn it one turn yeah one turn is a lot but he must have turned his head meanwhile as he comes out of this Richard Petty goes by and then at least two Richard Petty event very shortly the crew looks be ready and I think Richard dick Berggren is ready and here comes penny with it what are they paid the right back when overhead check residents left they do worry about the left side and Penny is wanna change four tires and agree petia left but with laughter the choices I felt like those guys somebody went past two J's bored tired Richard Petty one of the first to choose one of the first to mention chose to change everyone else their dreams of leaving fiscally leaves him Richmond comes down pit road like it pressure there the pressure for him winning in a particular track but the flag pit stops like different are still very pretty one day towards our Jack got a problem they're changing both weird technological I mean I know everybody else up without pit row is watching but wasn't that unusual over here and I hear holder tires one of the few times I've ever seen that happen in the Winston Cup race well Harrigan inherits we believe yeah here again inherits lead is that dissipated coming here commentary was the leader for about a half a laugh here he comes they are camera right there on the spot desert a program we've got a little different strategy here we've got a left side tire change on hands fire he just tossed a bag of cold rain the water he's got Pat he's gonna take the fuel why there's another one of those Bob a quick pit stop fourteen point five seconds even a little quicker than the pit stop for Jeff what I'd and Harry get who desperately in 1986 is out in confession but I think the Darryl walketh now has better left and has picked up five bonus points Aaron yeah he is now the leader of the race if I'm not mistaken I don't know where the fire is I've given a little confused will that's wafers for to do this but meanwhile Richard Petty India the racetrack leaving people in his weight with those four fresh tires over the car he is just dominating this race we'll get it all sorted out for him but we know pennies among leaders he is among the leaders Waltrip is among leaders and so is Gazoo JIP what I dawn at the track where speed and heat work relentlessly to break down motor oil this is where we put Quaker State motor oil to the ultimate test this is our laboratory where we

everybody else under green everybody had to fit under a green and have paid off Bowdoin is again a leader at North Coast he is the leader of all areas of are going to be warning like one right now what will happen isn't he tires worn out when his competition on the racetrack has better tire here again is in second position Darrell Waltrip who just completed a pit stop probably his last his third Richard Petty who we've been watching from up here to booth looks very strong his fourth but about three-quarters of a lap behind bowtie what I'd still there your leader Rutland his fifth still in the lead lap and Ricky Rudd six make that Drummond Ruttman just was laughs near eminence the second running here again you don't see him on the street at all yet remember it's a solid green car here goes Marcus by he's had a good day he's dropped to the bottom five in the top ten there is Harrigan with Walter Brady item together they're walking with fresh right-sides hair again they also failed alongside Haven ready is on the bottom of the racetrack blocks Darrell way he has to back off there you go there's a car smoking that's wonderful American cars Alice Bobby Allison smoking heavily down in terms wanted to Bobby Ellison who and his moments here today had a pretty good year update short tracks no driver has had top-ten finishes in all summer the short track this year but Alice in the top 10 in trailing behind fed up waiting for a busy have an erudite had to put the laptop seems to be staggering a bit here Bobby's coming down fair road making a pit stop our cousin New Orleans hocus dick burger the cameras there a delivery good enough yeah there's a lot of smoke as you snake coming out of the rear end of the car many the crew expects them to be a serious problem cleared out their pit lane it's a great way to get here well tell you to get it far very very tough to bring in the traction out there getting ready to pick it up big man who but earning the back end where the dried frei like so at a real age more places points this year so we in regards to the point that the big it is a big setback there we see some heavy smoke coming out of a automobile out of the right side looks like they're working on the rear gearing of the car there put grease in the rear here that's what they're doing so evidently he's rubbed her to seal or a gasket of something back there lost the fluid and they're replacing it right now time is precious laughter going by there the life side of which brothers 7-eleven machine here on the short tracks who started his racing career with a win on the high backs of Daytona here again darrell waltrip third now we're 25 maybe the second running car Richard was able to sneak in Betty and they're saying trying to watch the race of ducky foot but even if I had I probably could Ariella I know Jeff Mona has been running well it's been tough because there have been so many green flag laps and as we mentioned even though he only showed 20 seconds for a stop under green flag it really kind of jumbles you're on track position by as much bitter compared to the rest of the deal with Jeff at Kenyon dodge you can buy an 87 on the America for $57.99 or drive away for 99 dollars a month or get 2.4 financing or cash allowances to $1,500 on dodge cars trucks and vans only Kenyon dodge offers you i'm the america for $99 a month 2.4

Dalton's Waldenbooks or wherever paperbacks are sold a fresh look at today's problems pride of San Antonio Texas Eddie first of all losses are right in turn four right in front of some of the leaders Darrell Waltrip and Richard Peddie chose the high side and if Danny had first raela tip went up the racetrack a little bit we would have a serious action up there we watch the leader Jeff Bodine in the pits more tires this time any they get on all the way around so our concerns about whether or not Jeff when I tires would be as good as his competitors as we get down to the this race should be over prior to the yellow flag so we'll see how everybody gets out of this looks like what I did a pretty good job because there's a big line coming in as a right now boat I may still be leading this race mini when all is said and done after all these pit stops we'll take a break here while everybody is refeeding and their reshoring themselves the final today Holly farms 400 folks North Wilkesboro color watch solves a color problem I shot I think the mingoes got maroon one looks down well spot was always true this is ridiculous next time get your pictures developed at any store where you see this Kodak color watch seal for green looking pictures if you don't see the color wash seal at your store keep on walking sure your performance tires perform in perfect weather but it's not a perfect world is it introducing the Goodyear Eagle GT plus for a dramatic advance entire design that gives you great street performance in all kinds of weather so you can take those turns in those breaks and run down those high notes even when conditions are less than perfect look you either have Goodyear Eagles NHL hockey on the ESPN the most exciting action on television each week through the Stanley Cup Finals ESPN standing live coverage brings you the top teams and players the Edmonton Oilers and the Philadelphia Flyers face off in their season premiere the NHL's fast ride 7:30 Eastern on ESPN back in north will caution you no mirrors in a full-bodied stock cars that have vendors that are about what ten feet tall about 20 feet long are a very valuable commodity they're the best friends to a lot of race drivers but there are times when I've heard yet those same race drivers say they are their own worst enemies we got a racetrack now we look down many people are uncomfortable about changing lanes on superhighway they take a look at the side mirror over here and they might look at the upper mirror there's a blind spot over on the left side they don't exactly know and somebody's in the left rear corner of their automobile they're a little uncomfortable about who might be back there the right side there's also a blind spot for sure some of the new mirrors have helped a lot to help eliminate that still a blind spot over there if you're uncomfortable about changing lanes on a superhighway imagine what 400 laps at North Wilkesboro Motor Speedway would be like 800 times during the race each driver has to come down as he enters the corner he has to come back out again as he comes off the corner and there's no side fares at all sometimes things work out okay but a lot of times it doesn't work out that way somebody can be there so how do the competitors know that it's safe to move up come out to the wall work it down when they enter the turns be sure that there's nobody there it takes a lot of experience really I think everyone makes mistakes that at some time or another but you just sort of move over as if it's your track if you can't see them it probably is your track it's all your senses - your sight but most drivers have a tremendous amount of peripheral vision and even though you're looking here I can see way back over here and what I can't see I can feel so it's all your senses plus that other one that I saw about that sixth sense that you just remember where he was not in the field of experience in racing you know you got a feel for when somebody's under you a lot of times you don't know they're there but still if you've been racing with somebody for laughs or you see them come up on you or they're racing behind you trying to get back you know use they're there somewhere they're not that beer they're up under you you know you'd be pretty cautious about ESPN and the sit on Cameron Wow what we're running close back under green and last week when during a late yellow flag probably cause Jeff what I'm the race no such action today he comes out on top and boy he is breathing fire Bennie I could tell they took the he is a decision advantage would be that the caution fell he was a leader at by such a margin that all of his competitors had the way to laugh to go in and fit which came in all the exchange of pit stop meanwhile tear the money of the beat monopole bill right behind Bo time he's trying to get a lap back and beat Bill Elliott the third place car these are left out he's French Beck this for you the first fiver on the lead lap bode I get second the Greenville third Richard Petty fourth and Rusty Wallace is somehow Russell his lead back erect wrestled his lead lap back Rusty Wallace in the oligarch artists fifth one lap down and second brother Richmond is eight and Dave Marcus is 9 there is second place here again yo rubba trying to get underneath the belly the green number 20 Racing is good here it's always in the final North Wilkesboro we go inside of Joe Ruttman the super speedways of 1985 we're in check pretty well Joe Ruttman in their Quaker State doing the last two seasons urges attention or Martin Winston Cup racing this year you see Joe's North Wilkesboro records Peter the second echelon right now he's the best of all the cars who are one lap down to the leader Jeff bodean who is just in front of this pack terry labonte trying to get a left back goes inside Jeff what I can't do anything with it watch Jeff Conine and terrible Bobby I'll fill America looks like he's going behind the wall this time as terry labonte once again trying to get underneath or look at Bobby Allison disappointingly and dejectedly sitting you'll abadi a few laps down Bobby Allison stays and over it's gonna have a real big interruption bearing the body on some newfound streak there someplace terry labonte who first raced the winner sir the cup race in 1980 and by the way speaking of new winners 1986 has turned out three new winners that's the 1986 hi penny rusty Wallace's body images with a crew chief of the leading car Gary Nelson what do you two guys say to each other you and Jeff we won beyond strong they are definitely will try that's as hard as the water running are we to work it legally you guys have been here so many times this year in the lead in the tell you especially this year that they gotta get used to it and you just remember not all and they've got a lot to be worried about too because the floss is here right now rick hendrick is in this pit and he's watching everything that's going on but they better look over his shoulder dick Berggren because card11 daryl wolf is coming he's gotten by hair again he's passed all the except terry labonte and he's only about six car lengths behind there he's in the screen right now that's second place car and gated elbow time Darrell Waltrip was both north one Bolton he won the Holly farms 400 this race in 1984 he was shut out if they the bonnet shared with her again darrell waltrip told you at the top of the show the pressure of winning the points championship is nothing like the pleasure of a junior here in North Wilkesboro juniors places just down the road where'd those over all she was June on straws to watch junior scars with and they have since melting there'll be get along Bonnie voted third one hearing realized these are last car kind of gives Daryl the racetrack Daryl's got by a vendor stand up in between deep and now we will see what we will see 310 two laps this time bye Waldrop is faster than bowtie it is unreasonable that beau dines can hold them off for 78 laps then again never has been able to show some strength but I don't think he's had anyone to contend with like he's got right now and meanwhile Richard Petty has fast hair again he's in third spot and stove add in his fourth the most top-five finishes in 1986 of everybody even they learn our in the top five and right now his sights on Jeff Conine the computers on board inside the helmets of both benign and Waltrip are beginning to drive right now what every one of them has left you're going to see it in the next 10-15 laughs there are five cars still on the lead lap but right now it's a race between these two basically white car one with Budweiser red drip Walter looks like he's the hunter setup and he walked and looks like he has by far the better car right now as we watched those two go down the front right away the dining car the Red Baron pizza cart any shredder in the pit stop with a note hood up got the ball going the right run but meanwhile back Darrell Ward room on the rear bumper of Jeff bodean I'd also add as they vote on the outside of first wall there really is that much traffic between benign and Waltrip and the slower cars on the a long ways to go there's where the points would be of the race ended now Waltrip would make another big jump and move up to about a hundred and 20 points behind Bernard he is still on the track he's lost at least two laughs you've got Headley problem right now running at each position why bow dine is private Darrell's going to take this I anticipate Jeff make a mistake have to wait for the tires get a few more laps on before you can try to even try to pass road I'm all day outside right now it's the time you North Wilkesboro has been special wins for a number of people Neil Bonnett last we're away with five arrogance last career way than thinkin 85 would just mentioned the two of them a few moments ago Richard Petty's last career short track win eighty-one Jeff Bodine has led so many races this year but it's only one so very important here often because as usual he's in the boys battle another victory of just so very critical to him the racetrack he's not going to give the grooves in there but there's watch around we saw the seventy-five to the end no redecorate for their home laughs this year bill last week 160 here in the spring has a very tall order the list is long sitting in it short it says whole vast until hey Pete going to town on it I got a head like him in trouble I'll take care of it a day off is something real special but so is a good neighbor pulling down of the feet tour and for the beer brewed natural as a mountain stream for a taste as smooth as its name for for Mountains when I'm flying a real low altitude the last thing I need is trouble this Indy pace car is all stuck from the ground up and ACDelco parts help make it reform Mart should keep this car running right and your car too for the ACDelco retailer near you just give me a call at one eight hundred a seed Elko stay ahead of trouble with ACDelco parts for over a hundred years hunters could always depend on one brand of ammunition Winchester's load up with the legend Winchester the 1985 NHRA Pro Stock champion tires good year racing Eagles the 1986 street version tires Goodyear Eagles 86 SCCA gt1 champion tires good air racing Eagles the 86th Street version tires Goodyear Eagles the 85 I rock champion tires cugir racing acres you either have Goodyear Eagles or you'll need them we are at the peaceful and quiet rolling hills of Western North Carolina nothing really peaceful right here goeth Wilkesboro here today though they've been having a real good old-fashioned okay corral type shootout and right now they are toe-to-toe sinner rate Jeff Conine Darrell Waltrip the heavyweight Jeff of the contenders for the crown photon has left so many races and Darrell Waltrip is right now since the baton and Richard Petty would say I did the verge arrow say this too well it looks like just a few laps ago walking consistently run on the back bumper a phone I'm right now able to put a half and probably caldera Darrel's advantage whatever it was a few laps ago has went away they put a lap on Chet Philip the former Indianapolis car driver has moved to the car racing and dick Berggren is with the most stirring and dominant personality in this part of but you're near the race is winding down do you have any more in the car are you running flat out servo dine is running well well one thing for certain Jeff Conine has about enough room for zero error and even at zero Aaron might not be enough one thing that is happening right now there Darrell Walker is gonna try it on the outside you're right I thought he was weight probably another 25 photon is keeping Darryl Walter behind him Richard Petty throughout he may even gain he certainly isn't in the picture right now he's still about a straightaway back not losing ground 0.3 seconds you know when you're under a second particularly on a five-eighths mile racetrack Darrell mentioned to us at the very top of the show that there's a great deal more pressure on him to win in this car on this racetrack that maybe the other races on the schedule with this being the last short track races the pressure really on to win must you win this if you order in the championship in a championship beside that this North Wilkesboro mr. Johnson lives five miles from here that's his grandstand back there if you want to know about pressure winning a race at Wilkesboro is pressure for me any idea what now they still food Gerald I've said before and I'll say to get emphatically professional racing in terms of being able to drive a race car to set up a race car handle the pressures and compress the media the fans super ambassador for the sport and to anybody who is on the outside looking in there's a great deal of admiration for Darrell young a lot of he certainly does you know Darrell Waltrip I think your exact right thing I think is one of the the best of masters we have but you know the fans yeah they have a lot of fun Jeff what I darrell waltrip Richard Peddie incidentally has moved into third as we continue to watch the two leaders Harry Gant still on the lead lap and forth and Rusty Wallace as we told you snuck in and got him some of this pot there is Harry Gant who is right behind Rusty Wallace on the racetrack in Wallace we believe has moved around here again his lot in life by one position picking up a few more points and Rusty Wallace is now running fourth Harry Gant slips to fifth Ricky Rudd who is trailing there is one lap down he's in seventh just behind Joe Ruttman who is in sixth place 8:00 Thursday Marcos nicest in Richmond to is Dale Earnhardt and tearing the buddy look at her look coming outside of Darrell Waltrip trying to get his life back here I'll try to get inside both I've heard are shot up on the outside and it looks like riding down the road on well this is an interesting moment you can kind of sit back and open your easy chair trying to figure out well whose advantage is this it's just bowties advantage or is it won't chip sedan agent Bernard is sticking his nose up there Bernard is two laps down so he can't get better in the lead lap he really doesn't help out Dale and kind of bragging rights involved here but it's an interesting bonus videos within a football but I think that the problem it would Walter time will tell you know something to think about Waltrip is the one who oh and just lets another hi and welcome cancer wins what more was that close oh he chopped down the hill back I was about to say Benny that yet somehow insulate bo9 from ultra a little bit because he's an endpoint spell he doesn't want mulch if they get those extra five points or so for finishing first rather than second just call again many ran other one in those positions where you're on the outside whose line is it is a wall shift or bowtie bobby's come down did that thing a moment ago with spirits or was no way in the world beep there we see Walter Wallace o.9 and Darrell right now looks to be a little bit faster than Jim yes he gets a lot of Sun and they touched hold on mystic arts tightly into a real slugfest mode on really wants to win really wants to leave that I need 86 season with a win beginning to develop in this race we'll talk about it show it to you in just a bit of a time here but we're going to go back it looked like Wilson had gotten underneath Jeff but I guess he is underneath there but to go down to the corner him bowtie comes down the hill Gerald choices left rear and he gets completely sideways Dale Earnhardt was turnout keeps his nose right up there they're beginning the Whitney qualified so well here this race again the other piece of drama Betty this Richard Petty has four seconds down to two point two as bow-tied and wolf in fencing foil with each other headings women in head is moving incident and he's get closer closer there we see how close he is he's in the same corner one point five five seconds behind was the exact amount he has got bernard and Lafon ii between himself and Darrell Waltrip and Jeff will dine but what a rockin sensation this grandstand is going to have if the King Richard Petty can win a race boy was that building Richard needs to get up.get by the body Richard get up there and let's have us a race for 40 laps we're going to look at the interval between the five car the 43 car but it gets down that you can't really measure it in time across the finish line at pettiest 1.2 second okay this should be a real exciting race down to the end stay with us to the end of the Holly farms 400 here in North Wilkesboro this is fashion shootout at least three drivers one of them the greatest sale in Florida is going on right now at art Pommies Dodge City in st.

Ellis Kyle Petty nine Bill Elliott still out there this car number 8 Bobby Hillin Junior Darrell Walker Jerald line despot his fine self Wi-Fi oh and I'm desperately trying to keep him back there meanwhile Richard Petty he's another cup of garlic the big moment for penny comes when he gets close enough to pass day learner if he can get by him quickly he's got a shot at the win what do you think dick Berggren well it's really hard to say right now I'll tell you one of the things that I would be concerned about if I was a crew chief right now is the physical condition of my driver it is so hot out here Larry it's just hard to describe how unpleasant and how difficult it really is now your leader Jeff bodean he hasn't cooled soon on the other hand running in second position Darrell Waltrip he does not I asked his wife morning right before the start of the race why not she said because he gave parts of his pool brother she thought he might need it more than Daryl well an
