1995 Martinsville - Goodys 500

sometimes start of this goodies 500 from Martinsville Speedway in Virginia it has rained a lot this weekend and because of that there was no qualifying they'll line up according to points and so here is the starting lineup for today's race on the right there you see the number of points by Jeff Gordon and below that the number of points that a driver is behind the 1 in front of him another word Sterling Marlin is 34 points back of Dale Earnhardt who is in second position in the point standings there's down through 15 remember the top 10 in the points yet to be on stage at the NASCAR Winston Cup banquet at the Waldorf Astoria in midtown Manhattan they're the top 30 and those were the ones determined by the point standings now these others here got into either lie being a winner from last year the on the entry blank and the last for our provisional starters including Jeremy Mayfield Todd Bodine and that Strickland now the storylines for today's race Jeff Gordon is on his way to will Winston Cup championship leading light nine over Dale Earnhardt and Rusty Wallace is on the move in this support standing there's a good battle he pointed out Bob [Music] or getting into the top 10 in points matter of fact five drivers separated by less than a hundred points and rookie points Ricky Craven and Robert Pressley still wedging a great battle to be the Rookie of the Year in 1995 was tough competition there are new pit rules today only to luck wrenches err inches can be used instead of the usual three during the pit stops and there's a lot of other news for the weekend and the pit rules that follow will slow down the pissed off about two or three seconds by taking that one air in that third air inch away from the teams will tell you about the other LIBOR changes as we go through the a little more than a lap we'll be able to go racing for 500 laps on this half mile oval at Martinsville today's field consists of 21 for 11 Chevy's and 4 Pontiacs total 36 in the lineup and the line is off the top the punic safety car we will be going green next time bye here are those that failed to make the field and a couple of these including the 31 and the 71 cars would have been eligible because of point standings however they were out of provisional serve over there the six drivers who were not able to get into the race because of the rain that we had that washed out the qualifying so a lot of drivers that wanted to qualify from this normally see upfront Joe Nemechek in particular was one of the fastest cars on the track he starting far back in the field and Bobby Hamilton everybody's off had a good shot at winning the pole - so we'll see who's going to be the fastest ears - getting ready to go up crowd on its feet the green flag waves in the goodies 500 from Martinsville is underway [Music] Dale Earnhardt will lead the first lap get the bonus points here's the battle for fifth position is Bobby Labonte outside of Mark Martin that's right Dale Earnhardt did receive those five phone applause so now Jeff Gordon is only 300 four points ahead of him to the point championship battle about five cameras today mounted inside or on top of race cars this is the route cam of Ted Musgrave it looks like Mark Martin is really struggling that battling for the beginner big stars they had to run a 34 laps for them to really get seated in so they can feel comfortable with the Rusty Wallace getting loose on the turn in a position to take third from Marlin now does take third from Sterling Marlin Rusty Wallace going for four consecutive wins here at Martinsville is up to third already its Earnhardt leading Jeff Gordon and Rusty Wallace as we found Cottle battles in the attack there is Bobby Hamilton on the inside of Derrick Derrick cope has been coming up on the outside they're using that outside group as everybody wanted to the inside Derek said oh um it's got to go on the outside here Wow and he did a good job at several cars and ii got the car out of shape or something and lost a couple of spots and he sure did he was way out of shame i thought he was going to crash and he's losing positions this is back at about well position grunting 11:00 and Shepherd just ahead subject of some of the news that we'll cover later [Music] Wood Brothers Bill Elliott there in the 94 car ahead of Shephard Michael Waltrip Rick mast and [Music] Jeff go down to the seventh fallen Dale Jarrett the 28th [Music] these races in which they line up because of point standings really create some interesting racing because it's very possible that the fastest car starts in the back now look at the upper left-hand side of your screen we like to make you feel like you're at the race track and that's what you would see is a scoring pylon at any race track you would go to 409 and there are the top ten listed down the left-hand column now when there's positions change regardless of whether they're at the line or not they will be reflected on that scoring pile on Mike Wallace is on the movie started in last position and has passed maybe a dozen cars saw that outside proved opening up again everybody wanted to dip down and get down on the inside and when they did that to get bumper-to-bumper they don't run as fast down there as they might normally could and so it opens up that outside pick up a lot of spots Dick Trickle and Hut Stricklin are behind [Music] or said Strickland name this week to drive us to polar brother's car the out with next three years battle for second develops as Rusty Wallace go inside of Jeff Gordon at the line and in fact rusty does take over second position Jeff Gordon's car doesn't appear to be working as well as he would like for two because Dale Earnhardt has built up a substantial lead here and now Gordon loses money to Rusty Aaron art is just driven away Rusty Wallace saw that do you see now there it is down a half a straightaway rusty in second Gordon and third Sterling Marlin is fourth and Bobby Labonte fifth we had completed 12 laps out of 5 [Music] plus their Marlatt going inside of chef [Music] if Jeff averages a tenth place finish in the remaining six races he will win the NASCAR McGarry watch Jeff problem [Music] he respects about virtue of the monitor you see they know find the car take it dear [Music] and Marlon was loose coming off the corner that time as he tried to pass Jeff maintains third position with Marlon Belvin body in the early stages of the 500 laughs goodies 5-under [Music] ACDelco knows that as a car gets older its engine runs rougher so we developed a spark plug to help bring back new car field and things really gelled introducing rapid-fire from ACDelco it makes an engine idle up to 27 percent smoother and accelerate with up to 18 percent quicker throttle response new rapid-fire its performance ought to have a competition shakin in these mountains you need a tough truck Dave Ashley search-and-rescue volunteer trails I tend to make my own it's one torture test after another but the people I'm looking for depend on someone to find them well I depend on something to my Ford f-series how do you learn a job like this let's just say I Drive something tougher than a golf cart on the weekends Ford f-series the best-selling trucks are built Ford Tough [Music] your car's engine was made for the open road but that's not where it is day in and day out stop-and-go driving can kill an engine by creating deposits aware that Rob performance and shortened engine life that's why you need the added protection of TM 8 a new engine treatment from Valvoline TM 8 coats moving parts with a friction fighting ingredients including Teflon so no matter where you are your engine will run just like it's on the open road TNA from downplay because driving is more stuff than go did you take me to dog for breakfast I love gonna be juice my mom would have pancakes sausage and coffee and you said you wouldn't go work today I know but it's 3:30 in the morning uh we got flooding the car I okay I leave at exactly 10 minutes the SP and speed world coverage of the goodies 500 being brought to you by AC Delco automotive parts AC Delco it's like buying time by Ford and your Ford dealer have you driven a Ford lately and by NASCAR 94-year and review to order call 871 NASCAR [Music] it's beginning to precipitate at martinsville there was an 80% chance last night 50% chance the weather bureau said today but a little bit falling right now is Michael Waltrip and Rick mast both go to the inside of Morgan Shepherd in a car and off of turn two Jimmy Spencer did he spend that or gentlemen I think he just got a ghost of all in when he gets him into the fence on the backstretch [Music] system and watch the rotors it just turns cherry red stay that way you can see just a portly what if that one spark there is really going back into feel right man that month alone [Music] in these car they were afraid that all that heat of the break would melt there Kim [Music] right mortgages cannot get to the inside and they foster owner camera 4/6 position as terry labonte tries to work in [Music] sure quite a bit of rainfall it looks like in fact this spectator beginning to reach now for there [Music] but this moment it happens they feel that the cars the wind off of the heat off of his kitchen to crack dried up to race if it gets a little harder for some since these cars start slipping around we'll put the race under caution but so far they've been able the drive another girl before he would like to see the caution mm give it a little slippery up there in just a few the rear of the field and stopping the laps of the slower cars in the first one that he would laugh would be the 22 card after one running of the field Jimmy Spencer is [Music] pitstop on the backstretch the yellow is out Jerry rain and that's exactly it got to tight just a moment ago if any parcel is comedy Benny you're exactly right Earnhardt if anyone on the best when it comes with slick rain track finally said hey it's really starting to get slick out here in the cars really good starting to slip going in the turn head coming off and when they were approaching that lap traffic in the back of the field with the cardinal heavenly lucky was in the rain getting a little worse he went ahead radio to told children's hey we need to go ahead and tell the NASCAR officials in his time for the yellow flag and that's what they did they waited this a moment ago this is amazing it stopped raining here last night and didn't rain to drop that of significance until the race starts ten laps into the race and we can see the crews immediately put in the tarps down on the pit stalls trying to keep it as dry as possible so the field now at reduced speed here at Martinsville because of rain falling from the Virginia skies we'll be back with more from Martinsville in just a moment the Miller gym Diwakar [Music] it's time for breakfast you have $1.99 what are you going to do for rise and shine combos from Hardee's choose a made from scratch sausage biscuit ultimate omelet biscuit biscuit and gravy or bacon egg and cheese biscuit will give you hash rounds and your choice of coffee orange juice or a soft drink for combos $1.99 h poder compartir private alright there's no track in the world that's tougher on breaks than the one in Martinsville Virginia and when drivers take the green flag here they all have one thing in common the same brand of brakes because without them you can't come down this straightaway at 120 miles an hour and still make it to the turn so which brand do the top drivers use to get them to 500 laps at Martinsville performance friction carbon metallic and we stock at autozone did you patch the roof yes dear did you wash the cat yes honey pie did you ask your boss for that rain that's it I'm not listening to nothing else but NFL prime Monday nothing but ESPN's Tirico Theismann and Sharpton recapping who got cream sundae who's busted up who's gonna kick whose but in Monday's big game so I can't hear anything you say till after the show Oh Charlie can I get you a cold one yes honey with pit stops under way here Darrell Waltrip in friction right-side tires that around a wedge out Kyle penny Joe Nemechek coming around loser laughs here has three big clap 30 back upstairs rain still continuing here albeit very lightly the caution still out at Morgan Shepherd has been in a couple of times to try to get his problems the pace car but he's gonna have to charge really got the other side as he gets down the pit road he did come in the last laugh to change right-side tires came back then this time change left side tires and those cars that are back near the end of the field with the new pit rules map pitstop rules it's tough for them to make a four-tire change or even own a caution and beat the caution carpet well we talked about the new pit rules that are into effect as a result of an incident at Dover it involves two air wrenches instead of three who better to explain than BP let's focus on the right rear tire changer watches as he completes his job he stands up and runs around to help the left front tire changer leaving his impact gun and holes laying on pit road when Jeff boat on the pissed off is completed Geoff Bodine leaves you see the hose and impact wrench late on pit road if a car had been fitted behind them had driven across that it could create a problem Jeremy Mayfield once again the right rear tire changer completes his job he runs around to help the left rear and again leaves the hose and impact brakes and laying on pit road we see there isn't a car behind him but there could be a car behind them to run over that hose and impact wrench and fling it into the pit so nascar decide to clean up pit road let's examine the two pit stops this is from Dover last week on Terry Labonte's car watch as the guys taking the lug nuts off the left side tires the right side is down the jack man runs around jacks up the left side all these fellows have to do last week was take the tires off slide the new ones on pick up the gun and tighten them up and the car is to drive away let's show you what's gonna happen this week at Marvel watch the right rear tire changer he takes a tire off he slides it on the jack that lets it down now that both the rear and front have to come around bring the gun with them to take the lug nuts off the left side they take the tire off slide the new one on tighten up the lug nuts and Finn love on t is a way but the impact wrenches are back over by the wall out of harm's way the Mark Martin Jack Roush troop just might have the advantage because they're used to doing this in push Grand National race for several years they've used it to in fact rule so with more experience theoretically the better you should be and will see even with experience these guys still do it in just over 22 seconds about five seconds more than we're accustomed to seeing in Winston Cup competition as Ned indicated those 16 second pit stops are no longer it's going to take them much longer than that to get the four tires changed using just two air inches and there we see those fellows what they're doing right now is they're examining their pit stop they've taped the pit stop they're replaying it now to see exactly what happened and how how that we're going Jerry punch and you know buddy they're only going to allow the use of to Eric's as you said but the thing is if you break one of those two Rich's you're only going to be allowed to use the one that's left and the reason the NASCAR did that is the cost would be very very difficult to police the fact that that brute could say hey I just wasn't working real well I want to use the third when I got laying across the wall and an 18 second pit stop it wouldn't be fair to the NASCAR official to half the police that so Gary Nelson said look here's the deal during a pit stop the two races you carry across the wall are the only two now what that pitstop is over if one of those two is broken you can replace the broken one for the next stop but during that stop you can break one you got one left you break two now we'll go to the back of the Buick and get the old mentalray champ cap what you're going to be using the J's tire everybody has a tarp down to keep the surface dry in the pit area but the Childress crew keeps everything dry don't they and I have never seen such a huge tire this must be from the surface it looks more like a tent Gerry hey guys I just asked children to watch this tarpon said you know this thing is big enough we might be stretch it out just cover the racetrack and wouldn't have to worry about the rain and awful gets put up enough enough tip poles so we could just cover this whole racetrack speaking of the rain let's check in with our own weatherman here Todd Kernan John Jerry in an effort to get the most up-to-date radar picture we're ordering one up right now and I telephone but I tell you about the one that was taken about 15 minutes ago just a small insignificant little shower here in this area otherwise the radar picture looks really really good hey John yeah there's nothing insignificant about the racetrack getting wet right yeah I guess so but you know maybe we kind of use that in a relative term by my relatives are insignificant it did rain enough to create some dark areas on the racetrack that groove is still light gray but there are other areas of the track down to the inside in the straightaways in the outside and the turns that did darken because shower that is still going on to a slight degree they do have the jet dryer out and that will significantly change the racetrack okay here's the radar John what's going on now okay you can see the green here this is the Martinsville Speedway right there that little speck that is now up here the guys whenever that little clicker doesn't go but I tell you what it looks pretty good I think it looks good don't you yeah looks pretty good to me as it comes right back up just a little rain in the area so I think we are going to be fine for this afternoon what's a moving to the Northeast John yeah it's moving it's moving away from us in that direction Bob and probably another four or five minutes of of this light type of precipitation we will hold you to that mr. meteorologists okay in the meantime we will take a break and come back with more live coverage of the goodies 500 if you're on the lookout for quality used auto parts and tons of

Jerry John and Bill we are waiting for the rain to Lassen up so we can get going again with this of goodies 500 and as John indicated a few minutes ago doesn't look too bad as far as the radar is concerned just a passing shower idle spider yeah it's not right in here no we're perfectly dry I was beginning to wonder when you're gonna introduce us oh well you need no introduction wait a minute I'm Benny this is Bob and Ned over there and Jerry and he's down in the jerries down there with who with richard childress a more famous person a more famous person no one's more famous and you guys we're taking when it comes to eating right Benny because anyway we're with Richards Gilbertson Richard a lot of speculation as to who you may name is Prateek next year that's a very important position how close are you getting what we're getting real close still an hour together our last week we talked about it some and we're going to meet this week and probably make a final decision this week we pretty well know the direction we want to go a lot of stuff for me to finalize you and Dale went hunting last week put a lot of time together is the decision really there's a lot depends on what they'll want to do well it's gonna be a whole team decision but it has to be someone they don't feel real comfortable about working with all right so the decision they say the next couple of weeks you should though next week or two yeah I think we'll be able to announce something hopefully in the next two weeks they're getting very very close so that's going to be a critical part someone who can communicate with the driver and Benny Parsons and Ned Jarrett you got from it to the best that's the critical element of communication between the driver and a crew chief cheering how true that is knowing what the driver is saying and then going to the race car and put it and applying that to the race car and you know I would think that Childress and Earnhardt might take someone from inside the organization well I'm sure they've been looking very hard they have a very strong team they have a lot of depth in that team and they would not surprise me to see them take by the way last Thursday was Richard Childress 50th birthday happy birthday Richard now let's check some of the other news that has popped up here during the weekend Morgan Shepherd is out of the 21 car at the end of this year Hut Stricklin has signed a three-year deal with us to bowl the brothers and he was very very happy about that I saw him down the golf tournament on Thursday he had just sounded on Wednesday night Michael Waltrip thought was has left will be leading the Pennzoil ride at the end of this season that was a mutual decision by him the owner Chuck Ryder and some speculation has been that Johnny Benson might go in that car there's been no confirmation on that yet this week Barry Dotson announced I guess that Dover and he'd be leaving the 42 car at the end of the season well this week on Tuesday Barry left supporting Jude garland with Jim long and Mike force all three of those fellows are gone from samadhis team and we do have at least three drivers that have read up with their current owners and will be back again in 96 Bobby Hamilton with King Richard Petty dairy cope with Bobby Allison and Bobby Labonte has resigned a deal with Joe Gibbs and it apparently is for five years five years how about that that was an extension of a contract he signed I think a two-year deal when it originally went in there and now Joe give likes what he sees and has extended through the year 2000 both Bobby Labonte and the crew chief Jim you make art looks like everybody is getting their tarps up off pit road and it appears as if we may be ready to go back to I'll tell you when we come back [Music] your car's engine was made for the open road but that's not where it is day in and day out stop-and-go driving can kill an engine by creating deposits aware that Rob performance and shortened engine life that's why you need the added protection of TM 8 a new engine treatment from Valvoline TM 8 coats moving parts with a friction fighting ingredients including Teflon so no matter where you are your engine will run just like it's on the open road TNA from down there because driving is more stop than go football can be exciting but trucks would fall now that's a rush so if you're gonna tackle it you better get a hold of the right equipment a 1995 Ford Ranger 4x4 completely switch on four-wheel drive new four-wheel antilock brakes and a whopping 4 liter v6 the kit a Ford Ranger 4x4 and play truck football okay listen some of you hands are getting all turned around dealing with the opposite as winners [Music] ronzo if that ain't good enough hurt she ain't good enough

he was a lap down he lost a left during the coffee table that I did and now he's backed into the thieves and effector stories of America forward number 75 and we can see they're pulling the fender off the right front tire so he evidently has made contact with another car and that's the reason he's in the pits Bodine back out onto the racetrack he'll be using the acceleration lane that is built to both ends of the racetrack a lot of the car going on to the racetrack that is brand-new here at the Martinsville Speedway first time has been used to close in on Dale Earnhardt Dale had about a half a straightaway advantage before we went caution but now wallace is what [Music] just like knit Jared talked about just a few seconds ago the two car Rusty Wallace folks has won three races in a row here

of Bobby Hamilton ran into a tire on pit road and did some damage to the front end there's King Richard Petty as he looks on to his driver who and an impressive second place finish at Dover several times and he comes very close each time to losing a lap but has it yet what you're having to do is take the right rear tire off they come in to work on the damage to the right rear quarter panel is they would see the front end damage on the power right but Rusty Wallace crew only has a few seconds to work on that car they take that right rear Terrell knock as much of that sheet metal away as they possibly can and come back but this time he isn't coming back in so a parent did they feel that they got it fixed and he and Ward Burton apparently are talking to each other on the racetrack sure how friendly that conversation hard to imagine what they can see in hand yes I guess got the trip here actually you can say quite a lot it's okay now we're getting the indication that they're weak one more lap to go and then the green flag looks like the 29 car of Steve Grissom may be leaning did he not make it real slow bill what's what's the deal tire stop to tire stopper Steve Grissom he put on two bright side tires and upbeat everybody out now that time a lot of guys just a few tires came back in and then put on the two left side tires a handful of guys took Ford once they were having bull trouble with a pace car speed earlier let's go to John Koerner bill am i into pit road over here on the front stretch I found only three teams that elected to take right side tires only those were the cars of Ricky Rudd Geoff Bodine and Derek OH a two-tire change and the pace car pulls off the racetrack course that you go you don't live number 85 the hood stricken is technically him right behind the leader so he stayed out there get back in the lead lap and he is that way right now Mike I feel also getting a lap back at the mall contact between the 26 and 98 [Music] I'm not trying to take the lead on the outside of statement our links [Music] I live down again now remind you again that when these tires [Music] he's very well they have [Music] for most racetracks that we go to but that's the case here there's Jeff Dworkin followed by Sterling Marlin car of Terry Labonte [Music] to the outside of Jeremy Mayfield Jeremy very very loose 10-quart about the loose second place or if it is behind it [Music] is only the second race that has led this year he did lead four laps at the Darlington race in the spring in March [Music] we out here between Jeff Gordon and sterling [Music] now we

dangers of scarring [Music] you see the numbers changing down our scoring pile on there in the that's because every time there is a change doesn't necessarily have to be after they crossed the line 101 laps have been completed we got 399 to go now we see Rusty Wallace trying to get back further events guard we then be prepping he has worried about 2:22 again [Music] between Rusty Wallace and regarding how the car is handling after that spin up and turn four suspected that war garden give plastic plenty of room we watch a Napa field summary here's more from dr. Jerry punch cause the concern arose now is not the outside brat rear fender was actually inside fender down the river I using the ball that taking a library card finger well kept falling down on top of the tire that's their primary concern even had to reporter now listen nothing on the inside the problem here goes sterling marlin around Jim Gordon third position the third position [Music] Jeff Gordon has been running a higher line been here than even before the most for those whose cars are handling well down a leave time [Music] where the car feels good up there [Music] Mark Martin Vava leaned forward carved erich koch was able to pass triple just a couple of laps ago so that puts Jeff bodean [Music] Dick Trickle started the race from 25th he might have been one of those but it might be cultivar now on the race the battle for second now between Steve Grissom in 29 and Sterling Marlin and number just having trouble getting by firestar microns giving our North the outside may be exactly what he would like to have [Music] turn cold let's see how you'll do that here to make the pass on the outside their receipt Sterling Marlin diving down to the inside of Grissom that's a battle for second place Oh Wallace got loose and her know it got by yeah we and Steve Grissom still maintained sterling once again and LaVon en garde and there they're coming up on those be gone while they tried to get around those outside of Terry [Music] he's report on Jeff Norton from dr. punch earlier [Music] round of fighting the Karthik like I get up [Music] to get out falling back to as Dale

for your car go to autozone the parts are top quality prices are low and the people are helpful Gary Jennings you see when it comes to auto parts folks will tell you Gary really knows his stuff oh sure they know their other parts stores in town but when it comes to getting the right part the right price good advice from folks like Gary it's just no place better than Auto saw on the road going to places that I've never been seeing things that I may never see again I can't wait to get on the road again and when you get on the road again make sure you do it on gentles because general has the right tires for all the roads you ride [Music] sooner or later you alone general I never park up front of the parking lot that's how door ding has happened the towels but my why is she called me a

by some of his merchandise but a very interesting conversation with a young man who might become the champion of NASCAR Winston Cup in 1995 shop Talk that's the one that was supposed to air after Darlington that did not because it ran long [Music] there is the pace center at the moment Dale Earnhardt and what a huge lead he has looked for in I had seconds over Sterling Marlin and if the body in Gordon but earn our trail in these charges he did yeah Andrew sterling has not been able to get mount Oliver [Music] around and now sterling just now moving mmm yeah you've made that pretty good they still got here tonight [Music] now Gary Koch the main entails trade our part is in fifth place only people during that pitstop he was struggling before the and past you and here he is don't let straight air aboard and he just Eric started 16 is in fine John Curtin the caution flag is coming out maybe I guess the 29 car Steve listen the problem back to Gary Koch story I'm sure sensation building life side tires the past time they would probably come in this time get the derrick coax them in a little bit later guys meanwhile the caution does come out because of Steve Grissom this problem and turns one and two what in the world what's wrong with that car it's not an engine it's free well let's see we'll replay what happened here acts like the brakes a little seal on the brake assembly goes down a corner and he's on the brakes hard there's the curtain and the wheels are smoking on I believe you might a promo to seal in the counter [Music] and it looks like the live frog man is given that the other cars is in as is everybody else on the list laughs Jerry very bendy part of pit road again only two eras and you right lights already on websites run on a drink [Music] now focus away let's go back to the back some slight damage on the left side of the money - left side tires for a woman he follows Ricky Craven in the a car back they give a hammer to the when the sheetmetal trying to straight the front left side of the card Steve Grissom who had a quick pit stop with just two tires earlier is going to sit here for a while while his team continues to work [Music] John [Music] nabilla going the crew he took on left side tires and he is headed down pit road now Dale Jarrett and John Andretti did not stop Dale Jarrett is leading the race John Andretti is in second place Mark Martin beatified he had stopped so he's in third place Bill Elliott with the great pit stop is in the fourth position Earnhardt came out infield take a look at pit exit here the 24 I think only changed right sighs but he can't get it out he's blocked in Bayern art and he put he did fall out he almost ran to his teammate from full Terry Labonte very close Jerry and would call the 24 only came by side tires he lost an invention he couldn't get out behind here to get get a pull forward back up pull forward back up about time he finally got over by his teammate but McCauley couldn't get out of his pit box it costs him extra four and a half to five seconds and they only got right-side tire here's another look at it there's Earnhardt stop just ahead of Jeff who can't get out [Music] once again he's taking it out best way to learn hardly even if anybody thoughtful as you mentioned Benny almost pulled out in front of his teammate Terry of a body that fortunately they were kids F and Rusty Wallace picked up about six or seven spots in that pista Rusty Wallace started back to back 20:56 ninth place and Bill Weber has an update on Joe Nemechek coach Joe Nemechek is behind the wall the team had the Burger King Monte Carlo pop on Jack's changing the rear track bar and trying to straighten he's definitely flatten the right side of that car this demon tested here they were really optimistic as net Benny had spoken about earlier they qualify in the top five that went out the window [Music] and early problem form you're getting into the wall coming Joe still sits behind the wall a lengthy stop first for 32 laps completed the green is back out Dale Jarrett is the leader of the race John Andretti second then Marc ernhardt than corny the cars fighting to get

[Music] he is not down by has led 22 laps here the nails going at it [Music] Jarrett's car goes laughs reruns about ten or twelve lamps and the fact that he didn't get French tires that that problem that laughs within the car seems to record good and John Kernan has more on Dale while you dance you're very observant Larry McReynolds said that reason they do not kid needed 10 to 12 once they go back to racing desires be heated up and to stick to the track told me he was very shocked that as many cars pitted as they did Wallace takes the position away from Jeff Gordon while we're talking about the 28 here very briefly those all of what's going on in the last 48 hours yesterday's truck race here at Martinsville was rained out that was supposed to be the racing creature he will make it next the Winston Cup race hopefully next week jerry has more on this tire rub on the north is right we got got somebody Maurice to do it wouldn't make this real mad as the yellow came out they're Sterling Marlin getting to the inside of mark now marks lip coming off the turn we had a good run coming on we dip down the inside to figure out which way he's going now he figures it out very quickly you go to the inside but now he's not going to go three of brass he wanted to the rent all three of us so he just back off [Music] now the leader Earnhardt is two-faced behind Mike Wallace once again in the Holly Meyers car and that is helping Rusty Wallace in the rest of these cars because he's ironheart is not running around the race I guess fast that Goodwrench Chevrolet will run because my heart's holding up just a little bit [Music] yeah he's been bleep [Music] never maybe [Music] use caution Abby that [Music] brother back there too [Music] and low body thornton's Jack Roush looks on the goodies 500 at Martinsville we'll take a break and be back in a moment football can be exciting but truck football now that's a rush so if you're gonna tackle it you better get a hold of the right equipment a 1995 Ford Ranger 4x4 39 completely switch on four-wheel drive new four-wheel antilock brakes and a whopping 4 liter v6 to get a Ford Ranger 4x4 and play truck football [Music] your car's engine was made for the open road but that's not where it is day in and day out stop-and-go driving can kill an engine by creating deposits aware that Rob performance and shortened engine life that's why you need the added protection of TM 8 a new engine treatment from Valvoline TM 8 coats moving parts with a friction fighting ingredients including Teflon so no matter where you are your engine will run just like it's on the open road tn 8 from Delhi because driving is more stop than cold you know a lot of people who work on their cars will only shop at autozone they depend on us for the best quality parts and low prices every day they come in get what they need and then get back to work because you see they believe if you want the job done right you do it yourself well at autozone we couldn't agree more because when you take the time and the effort to work on your car yourself you ought to be choosy about where you shop we just thank you for choosing out of those we're back at Martinsville Speedway in Virginia Dale Earnhardt still trying to put Mike Wallace a lap down and has closed it to make it a battle up front and it's also helped rusty ones there we see terry labonte

okay and Labonte had second and Hamilton has 12 [Music] John Kernan has talking to his crew chief Rodney Lewis this morning [Music] it's better body also [Music] last week ago because they've got a taste for victory and Robbie says it could very well have that car caused early by encounter with a tire on pit let's check the interval between Earnhardt and Rusty Wallace was running in third [Music] to to 196 and rusty cut the interval from 2.4 seconds down point-8 we see where traffic in that second lap he goes from twenty point nine to twenty one point three that's not a professional driver Earnhardt doesn't do that was in his way that loud Hawkins really obvious that he did encounters 193 [Music] one laps are completed by of course one here at Martinsville [Music] rusty did looking for succulent victory on this racetrack and the 5 car Terry Labonte is looking for his fourth victory in 1995 there's a battle for one dead typical [Music] bhagavati wanted [Music] all 36 cars

of him one Walter's time the Western Auto several there are Walter I hope today [Music] the fifth place car is right now pretty sorry fifties what about eight nine seconds behind our leader [Music] Jerry what's the problem now a couple of things remember Gordon only took on the right side tires well he got pinned to the pits on that previous stop back in also the car was Lucy the minute gotten even more loose we just can't afford the courtroom he's exactly 1/2 lap down to the leader day Barnhart has passed a 20 now he is two laps down in 28 see some of the Sydenham I heard of battle have been going at it back there for those positions so you're looking at 15:16 and on back going backwards a little bit now they feel got back very good sign Darrell Waltrip trying to get by how petty leading that group he's also they're straighter back out there making up so the months got hit break break problem six and here is Bill lb prime to go for Phil out of corner number four [Music] yeah that mattered car be picking up speed as these tires get worn [Music] it has more on I used to race with Jeff Gordon you know Bob a lot of people don't think of Bill Elliott as being a short track driver but he's had some good runs here at Martinsville totally Gibson and my team a lot of short track experience like with the limited amount of practice this weekend put their heads together and borrowed from some of the teams that they have run well here at mark [Music] mixture other Santa like that same cake this week is gonna be good or we're gonna be bad looks like the truth is right Eliot has never won on this track his best finish was third in this race last then what we've well Elliot and gift Borden Rashad by sad Rick master join the battle Bobby Hamilton and Mark Martin isn't that far back mark Gordon is losing positions which stands to lose him he has lost two positions and your comes rigged man looking for seven and Hamilton trying to get on the inside why thank you [Music] the victims [Music] is up in turn four apparently everything [Music] now Elliott and Bodine are side by side so that easily it takes a spot away you see we see what happened Dick Trickle we see Earnhardt coming up there on the right of your screen we look to the left here now [Music] like Ricky Rudd Dick Trickle got together just a little bit and Dick Trickle was able to save it being the short track champion that he is Robert Pressley in the 33 car is trying to win Rookie of the Year honors [Music] is Ricky Craven and that's how they are in the point standings also lead on Robert Pressley in the battle right now Robert Preston in his second place car the last car on the lead lap earn ArtPrize [Music] seat pressure losing the back in if he came off the corner these stars starting to slip them slide there goes Kraven Bobcat must raise a Fanta total car but that's the twenty first twenty spot was must right back into one at first [Music] what well he's got that spot and now massed will be the next to try to [Music] continues to be a Dale Earnhardt race bottom line up [Music] [Music] [Music] Firehawk one it indeed you everywhere with you spark plugs you get improved performance for a while but only Bosch platinum has a pure platinum center electrode that's heat fused for an airtight seal so Bosch platinum bleaches itself leading temperature faster for full engine power over a longer performance life which means you'll replace a lot of other things latinum Bosch platinum the ultimate sparkplug when it comes to rope in a steer folks in Grand Junction Colorado will tell you that Ron marking can ride with the best of them when it comes to overall engine engine or rebuilding a carburetor well he can do it all you see when Ron's not riding a horse for fun he's turning a wrench for a living so he buys a lot of parts mostly from autozone sure there other parts stores in town but Ron knows that when you want the right part for the right price just no place better an autozone [Music] which master race team will have what it takes to win the UAW TMT work of excellence award just ask dealer who the heck are those gasps you a WDM assembly line to finish line teamwork wins [Music] all kinds of things going on here at Martinsville Robert Pressley got into trouble in terms of her for and Ted Musgraves lost it in the backstretch yep this was not the caution flag Musgrave was the caution flag evidently they were seen Musgrave jumped out of his car boy when you see the replay of this thing you'll see how close Musgrave came to flip it over when he hit the inside wall he hit it a ton but as you can see he has climbed out of the car already and is ok I see Robert Pressley coming into the pits he was not able to stop his car and Musgrave is running [Music] Wow and of course all the leaders are in the pits you can see them here on the press scratch in the body worn him out oh he sure did Mark Wallace Marlys Bobby Labonte Cole Rick mast Jeff Gordon still is left side of that car now the jacks are down and he goes out I'm sure they were working on the sway bar of that car and I think they try to get it to handling a little bit better Billy Elliot with another one lost a lot of time on that pit stop you see there's the rubber press the cart we see he made contact with Musgrave and Musgrave is yelling in there he's not very happy here's Bill Weber Ted Musgrave on the way back to his trailer Ted obviously a tense moment out there what happened well we dropped the cylinder so we were running on seven cylinders for a while and great I just say and I grew sad everybody's way and I just got taken out by the 33 car and I wasn't asked him I says what was wrong he said well I ran out of brakes well via Auto brakes he shouldn't be on the racetrack you know so rookies ted musgrave high in the points but out of the race yeah he's in fifth place in the points coming into this race and here is a look again at what happened watch as he backs in his fence clear up on the wall then back on it and then just about that time after he finished his reckoned Presley was in trouble up and turned four ever see the leaders Earnhardt Terry Labonte and Rusty Wallace and apparently when when he hit must read maybe he either push defender in or messed up the steering or something and then when he went into that next turn just lost [Music] caps in the hurry doesn't Wow right that went up on the Family Channel for protect us grave and we'll try to assist getting that car back into the race doesn't look like Jax marry me either I'm over this whole situation now it was an unfortunate situation [Music] now watch this when he's pcs pressed into pits he runs down there [Music] I saw Ted start to run toward that direction then now I realize when he was running to so the caution is out for the fifth time this afternoon here at Martinsville [Music] [Music] no automotive company is won more races over the last thirty years then [Music] Kenny Bernstein Budweiser king top fuel dragster who says me wings to fly [Music] your car's engine was made for the open road but that's not where it is day in and day out stop-and-go driving can kill an engine by creating deposits and where that rob performance and shortened engine life that's why you need the added protection of TM 8 a new engine treatment from Valvoline TM 8 coats moving parts with a friction fighting ingredients including Teflon so no matter where you are your engine will run just like it's on the open road TNA from doubt lee because driving is more stop than go [Applause] - drivers in the world's fastest car compete tonight at 8:00 Eastern in the ground three of Portugal Formula One the art of motor racing only on ESPN back at North Martinsville rather under caution because of an accident involving Ted Musgrave and Robert Pressley now let's take a look at some pit stop activity that [Music] okay here Jethro died on the backstretch hey trying something a little bit different he's changing the left side tires first normally they do the right sides fur with this new pit rule today Brian they had a good pit stop let's go to John Curtis let's talk to his crew chief Paul Andrews upon a little something different on your pit stop changing left first why are you doing that well you know it's time to change the pizza or stops all around we thought we'd try something a little different on the short tracks you always get jammed up to these places sometimes if we feel like we'll lose a little time when we do right sides first so we're gonna do the trial kind of go from there how's it working so far well we lost one position going in or you know leaving a bit so we didn't get much practice we feel like we'd also be a little bit better and we do a little in fade like seven stops total and the guy's done a pretty good job we're pretty happy with him right now I think we'd get better they would you know the pits aren't really congested here so not really her killing us too bad here that's Paul Andrews the reason they didn't get a chance to practice their pit stops last week as much as most of these teams they did a two-day test at North Wilkesboro they expect to be strong there next weekend and Jeff bodean at the moment is running in sixth position l'm Bonnie's crew did such a great job of getting him out we wondered if they changed all four tires and let's check it out well yeah they did they did we see terry labonte coming down pit road and leaving all the rest of them there your concern are them [Music] and there you can see the off-track time by Earnhardt and Terry Labonte it was a great pit stop last year at D Hardin that crew very good Jerry eyes tearing the bodies v up was 17 4 & 8 seconds incredible let me show you what they've been looking at here in the Labonte pits and go ahead and roll the videotape they take their old visit and watch rusty Wallace's car come in here it's sort of the brush back now well back it up one moment here was back it back up the car has to come in yet wait it back it back up okay now let's try it again and watch what the five car coming - watch it - car nearly pinch them off it's eat see the two car come by they had to stop they couldn't get out to work on the right side of the car and even with that brush back on pit road they changed four tires in seventeen or an eight seconds was just two air guns that is absolutely amazing engineers okay here they are coming in and terry labonte peels off to go in his pits and rusty is pitting right in front of him and you'll see that the crew members do have to stop for just a fraction of a second and get him laughs to their work because they didn't want to get run over by rusty and first he was trying to get to his do knock-knock tough like the bill baseball pictures and fresh back trying to get in his pits here's bill Weber with Robert Pressley having a brief conversation with this crew but Robert obviously a tough incident out there a your view of what happened well you know Dale was coming up on us and saying we'd better get ready you know no qualified and we start way back there in the back and called up the Ted there and just never could get by him couldn't get by him and finally got me a run off the corner read him there and all of a sudden he jumped the loose and got in the back of him and you know they just what 92o know what it down went down the corner there and didn't have no brakes and they say we got plenty of brake pad left so maybe we chipped a line out there after we got into him hoping for a little rain here weren't you well I thought maybe luck could change a little bit hoping this going rain there but you know they said it's quit now well as Ted mentioned Robert is a rookie and he's running for the Rookie of the Year title here in the Winston Cup Series seven points behind Ricky Craven let's watch the crew member on the 24 car he's backed by the right rear making a chassis adjustment and the four car leaves in he just jumped over the 4 car Sugoi sterling and up boys are good athletes they are you have to be any more we got one more lap to go before green and we're getting near the halfway point of this race they'll take the green flag on the 245th left by the way terry labonte is leading that he has led here at Martinsville since April of 1988 Wow that's hardly it is as much a successor since Adams telling Shore knives yeah field summary for you Gordon back in 11 spot so lost quite a few spray yest an average a tenth place finish or better to

back of the car it looks like he may have burn to get up in that car yes that's a tough place on gears well Betty can expend explained in a track back a little more about the rear end of these cars in the ring and opinion and all that kind of stuff here's a track back [Music] backpacks are brought to you by Quaker State the intelligent oil for longer engine life we keep hearing the ancient builders talking about dine on the engine trying to find out a little bit of horsepower well text Powell of a text racing in star North China builds gears and he determined that gears needed to be dyno'd as well so along with the folks at Dana they have put together a gear dyno well maybe we should explain a little bit about a gear we'll show you that and we'll come back and show you how this baby works okay you've heard of ring gear and pinion there we are ring you're on the Left pinion on the right this baby hooks to the driveshaft which goes up to the engine if the engine turns 9,000 rpms so does opinion little pulley on the yoke that pulls the pump that cools the rear in and there we see the ring gear it's bolted to the locker this turns the rear wheels sometimes engine will turn 9,000 rpms and the rear wheels only turning 125 miles per hour or the engine could turn 9,000 rpms and the rear ones would turn 200 miles an hour controlled by the ring gear they would see the pinion installed in the carrier will install the ring gear in both the baby up and pretty soon we're able to find out just how good this thing is going to perform okay we've got the completed gear in the dyno this 150 horsepower electric motor turns a chain turns the pinion now the gear just isn't freewheeling inside it's resisted by a water break of this look we're going to show you how this baby works first of all we run just light pressure against the gear and then we crank the water against that gear put in all that pressure against it making that gear feel like it's coming off to Cornette marvels 750 horsepower trying to rip those teeth off the ring gear and pinion there's a maximum pressure we'll use and there's a 620 gear it's completely broken in it's ready to go ready to drop there I want the first lap and hopefully run 500 laps now Ricky Rudd's didn't sure then that's pretty impressive terry labonte continues to set the pace with almost two seconds as you can see he has passed Dale Earnhardt for second and pulled away of a little bit Marlin back five seconds and Geoff Bodine is running in fifth here is how rusty got second from Dale comes off the corner and rusty goes down to the inside and Dale just basically did not battle him because they learn artists struggling with this race go right down there it appears to be yeah it doesn't seem to be handling as good as it was earlier in the race he said at the top of the show that he felt that the car would be good for trying to be last half of the race well it looked to me like in the bedroom yep battle for 11th place as waltrip he goes inside India and gets 11 and here comes Bobby Labonte the Interstate Batteries car the extension with his contract with Joe gives to the year 2000 coke and Hamilton are racing for seventh spot and once again Bobby Hamilton but so is very during that last pit stop a little bit now but it gave him great track position he's still up there [Music] in the spring of this year competitive largest stuff elapsed Gordon [Music] Bernard is struggling the de Goodman Chevrolet right now exactly what his problem is but that let any labs today and he started his highest place has been a sixth his lowest night she had mane and tail on the back of that 12-car the shampoo yeah I told you earlier in the year they were supposed to grow hair I think Martin area the does work dude you're supposed to rub it on your scalp weirdy drinking or eating it put it on salad [Music] the Bonnie comes up on some heavy traffic here Tonto here's a pram field summary Terry goes to the outside of Todd who is running back in 29 spot looks like the Rusty Wallace might be all in Kerala Gerry looks like Bernard is struggling is he no doubt Bob apparently the car for whatever reason is developing significant stuff problem which is getting real loose into going into corners they've only won about 75 [Music] you know they could make it about 40 more left they could make one stop that would be their final stop they would need to make but right now he has a handful of race par but check in with gun Thank You Rhett still sitting in his cars is pretty replacing the rear rikiya problem with the carpet - behind the wall we brought up a gear do not discount it happen for about 30-40 laps and proctitis country spent Tuesday another car and probably about of a burning utility not really sure wide open three well Ricky red will be behind the wall for a little while as they've got the new gear out taking the old one out we put the new one in but it'll take a number of laps get him back out on the track [Music] run in third position as this race for what seven yet still that same bad we saw a little Halle go and settle down for a little bit but now Bobby Hamilton gettin racing hand out on the inside for that seventh position up in front of them just a lap ago Dale Jarrett position Jarett driving with a broken rib today [Music] Bobby Hamilton still having trouble [Music] but also Derick did we say that Derek okay the Bobby Allison for next year yeah we cover that here is Bobby Labonte and Jeff Gordon racing for 12th and maybe they aren't too far from being left Bob there three seconds in front off terry labonte state race side by side that's kind of slowed them down even more they're touching a little bit and the later the body has trouble coming up therefore and Rusty Wallace takes the lead [Music] things that kind will settle down into all but all of a sudden made me yield to I'm trying not to do that today through that you scare me to death alright let's see what happened Oh Spencer turn three [Music] Compton is out on the track maybe the 41 car Ricky Craven we understand his smoking so maybe put down a little there he is great mosaic Chevrolet think he just made a pit stop and is now on the acceleration lane coming back onto the track of the car is still smoking and the caution is out Jerry what's going on apparently they were saying the 30 car may have been leaking somethings at one of the cars and putting some oil down this before and Labonte had complained there may be some oil in the racetrack in the next time.bye he goes into turn three and four and slips up across the racetrack and that's the reason for the caution flag we're told well in any case Terry Labonte has relinquished the lead to Rusty Wallace and they'll be coming into the pits Terry Labonte got the lead with the great dip stop there a moment ago so let's see what he can do this time well we'll set up a triple split for you with Wallace Labonte and Earnhardt as a lot of others are also coming in those and he wanted to five and three cars factory across your TV stream and already done the right side alleged infertile let's roll and you see those cars making their way now or for Terry Labonte here's bill Weber on the backstretch petia go buddy got the right side left side jerking off the lug nut Blackbird is away leading the charge of petrol [Music] 42 and finally Jeff Burton also away catches the fuel Oh seconds with just two ears they get him out first ahead of Rusty Wallace rusty had taken the lead from Terry on the racetrack but now it's Labonte back in

let's take a look once again at the pit stop a terry labonte the crews been doing a great job all day and they turned in another excellent performance right now they're rated did they had just been passed on the racetrack when you hit them all or something as with how the track Rusty Wallace had taken the lead and there you see them working on the Kellogg Corn Flakes Chevrolet go around to the left side someone cleaning the windshield first you're putting gas in it while they're changing y'all four tires and he's down in the way and according to Jerry punches a clock it was about what eighteen and yeah nineteen seconds is over eighteen seconds we had him a little more nineteen but in any case he got out first and will be the leader when we go back to green and word so right now car the great back to racing Brentford ID on the inside in the loader trying to get back in the lead lap now they're just the 16 car now Michael Waltrip is one of those and who lost - laughs in the pits they have some sort of problem with Robert Pressley we know had problems earlier the other rookie contender Ricky Craven 27th position let's go probably a valve a rocker arm ran last four races we brought them Galia trying to win that rookie title well it's pretty important to us I know we've had a season that Lenox parallel we'll just fight it up with last I raised my Ricky's nine points ahead of Robert Pressley his car doesn't look so good either but right now Freeman will stay in 27th for a few more laps and then will continue to go downward is on the racetrack but the front end of that car isn't in real good shape after the incident he had earlier in the event yeah they had to make a lot of repairs on it but they did get it so and ride around and try to pick up as many points as you can of course between he and they're the top three as they come down the back ernhardt and Wallace that's the way they came out of the pits [Music] Sterling Marlin is running in fourth position that day Jerris Bobby Hamilton derrike cope bill Elliot Geoff Bodine and Kyle Petty and here is the Battle Force 7 spot as Elliot now goes inside and takes away the position looks like and there's a 98 car of failed for CSM matter-of-fact when his car stalled during a caution a while back bill Elliot has yet to score a top ten on short tracks issues was that the race here in the spring well Barnard is staying right there with terry labonte now he was dropping back before that good range Chevrolet and look like as far as getting a better track well you know he's been running pretty well on new tires let's wait about 20 25 laughs that distinction problems good point he looks to the outside of the body in turn three and four cannot make a move is back into second spot but yep right now is working better [Music] we can see in a few laps here's the friend the averies feet of the race by the way 71.5 our 12 lead changes Terry Labonte has [Music] as you can see there are 16 cars on [Music] and Ricky Rudd is now back in the rain [Music] Jerry punch has a report on the we heard earlier he might be leaked and Jerry's at the case while Bobby was leaking somewhere in fluid a thought that one [Music] in summary reach out to the place to the cost of living reach places a close play he gave it a tinted reduction boots up to come on pit road and NASCAR was holding the left but he loves to laugh anyway in the pits because the rear end 12th had seized up on the car we lost the left they tried to fix that he is back on the racetrack now being shown at least one lap down he's in 21st position a lap down to the leaders and Ricky Rudd has rejoined the race and the pump we you have to circulate the fluid in the gear it goes through a small red eater and fan blows after it if you don't do that they will burn up Declan now you see rug her body has been able to pull away buzzer - becoming fuzzing he wasn't a little bit ago because iron art was all over he the last time we looked at that frightening Terry Labonte's oho an iron art got the car extremely loose when he got off I'm Starbuck when he hit the accelerator coming off the second corner the fat just blew up on the back of that 3 car man scared me to death calm down we really got in sideways about right there when he hit the gas the back end is 100 and you might be right baby when you said little goodies far useful now my body is beginning to pull away just a little bit the Lord of it was as a result of that he's losing ground labonte and ground on the Dale Earnhardt there's Jeff Gordon who is back well that caution flag helped him because we've noted the fact that he was far from going to lap down [Music] came out so that ladies get get some new wife there and leaders but jeff has not been among them and Rusty Wallace goes to second fighting again not at all for he just moved over and laid go because the numerous penis fan look me like right now as far as really struggling getting off the corner you see Jeff Gordon right now in 12 spot here at Marvel Speedway and that's uncharacteristic of Jim since the coca-cola 600 Shawn this guy has been on the road that was way back in the we started 14 races he's second through fifth four five six to ten five times and 1/16 play finish and you will have six week placement was at Pocono in June and he missed a shift over that laughter to to go Legion

looked like some of the garbage from that broken valve has gone through the moat they're not quite sure exactly how long that engine in that kodiak car is going to last I'm not sure that the wiki fonts will be affected at all here today because they only picked the top 15 finishes during the year for the rookie drivers and is so far down but don't think you'll make a whole lot of difference in the points there's the other rookie contender Robert Pressley by the way ken Schrader has been into the pits he's back out there now still only what car Hut Stricklin officially out of contention and

burger Jeff burgers in the lead lap in an investor's car he now is a lap down so now in the 14 cars left in the lead lap the file Labonte was battling Burton is that Rusty Wallace gained about half P this receipt there was between he and the five there we see rusty often behind here the bottom the next star of the left will be marked watch this battle that we saw a little bit earlier there Kyle Petty and Jeff Gordon 12th and 13th position Jeff Gordon just Pascal because I was trying to get back by him and the leaders aren't very far behind apart the next ones to go a lap dance about him we watch Hamilton and Mars battle for that position as Hitler there's a big donut on the side of Kyle Petty's car there's also a mark on the 18 but the guy going for the championship to 24th I will think and Bobby Hamilton made that pass took over fourth in around Sterling Marlin now Dale Jarrett moves right up on Sarah [Music] here's bobby labonte going on the inside the longer Gordon's car runs now here is Dale Jarrett taking his position away from Marlin so sterling has fallen back several spots here just in the last few laps [Music] he's all the way back to six that has spin with two cars and [Music] it's namely Elton Sawyer and Jeff bodean Wow and it happened right front of her but hey there's no caution no caution and out caution and I don't think these grabbers realize there isn't a caution out everybody slowed because of the huge was in turn four that NASCAR never throw the caution and they the leaders tears Bunny and Rusty Wallace both those cars had to went through and that one or two slow speeds they thought the cost was gonna be able to go on the backstretch and impure and he's already Bobby Hamilton slow down father today no collagen take off Derek gonna pin for I know Mark Martin has gone a lap down now and there's Jeff Burton remember couple apps builders of bonding plan yes first Jeff Burton's back in front of him again and he was one of those that took the advantage but boy a lot of smoke there they had to slow down because they couldn't see there's Terry Labonte kind now there is a crash there is a crash right in front of the leaders and Rusty Wallace stop don't be hit the car enough but he is right into the side of the 27 car and rusty wait until there's a break now gets it but boy loses a lot of track position well what a day for Rusty Wallace this is the second time he has been involved in or the in some way involved in let's take a look at again there we see once again Jeff Burton in the 8 car and Terry Labonte in the 27 spins and Bert just crashes right into him Labonte goes to the grass Bernard never hit something stays on the racetrack but rested committed himself up hi there got right up to the 27 car don't think he hit him he did he didn't hit him hard he had to back up then he had to wait for trapping to go by before he can get down on the inside now everybody's in the pit John Kernan Bobby Hamilton during that first business and he couldn't sue to go anywhere the mobsters Biden support tire chains for him no chassis justice Dale charities in they'll take on ground they've already changed right and left side tires but the right front tire of baklava nice car if they came down pit road this week our offer look towards the back there Darrell Waltrip change the right side line Karolina whichever luggage back [Music] Waldrop hustling out of the back pits [Music] will fall into position ahead of Rusty Wallace the caution is out now for the eighth time here at Martinsville with less than 100 laps to go in South Dallas a lot of folks like to work in their cars and a lot of them come to autozone they'll save money on top quality parts they find helpful people like rocky brown I'll share their other parts stores in town but Rocky's the kind of guy folks go out of their way to see he's good at solving problems he really knows his parts you see when it comes to getting the right part the right price and good advice there's just no place better than autozone smaller electrodes more power more electrodes bastard star suddenly everybody has a new spark plug idea promising instant higher performance but one new plugs idea is higher performance that lasts introducing Auto light double platinum platinum on both sides of the gap for faster starts and more power every time platinum to platinum firing for guaranteed peak performance long after other ideas have peaked out water like platinum and now Auto like double platinum or precious metal for your precious metal this is about how you go to sleep one day running your business the same way you always have and wake up the next morning with things like email voicemail pcs pages a new communications network for free it's not a fairy tale a myth or a parable this is about how things can really happen this is about opening your eyes instead of closing them and making a call instead of a wish Network MCI that's how Jeff Burton's Rev Estes Ford is damaged as a result of the incident we had on the racetrack causing the most recent caution this is what happened first to the 90 car Benny he comes off the corner he just nails the gas does a 360 and creates so much smoke that no one really could see they're walking sneaks by but all these other cars are really blind and this is the view that Walter pad Wow right after that this happened there the 27 car spins right in front of Jeff Burton there was the leader carried the body the grass come around Earnhardt drove by but rusty wallace committed himself up there he couldn't get down he broke right up to Elton Sawyer and had to back up hey guys did you notice who the first car behind the spending 27 ones the leader the whisk up one his next car behind spinning about to go a lap down and here's Jerry they get the 24 car idle and racetrack Gosselin lead a lap pick up those five bonus points what's up basically they haven't been able to do anything with the chassis they just lowered the pen art bar two completed rounds party gets a car to come in but it just won't do anything ray evernham said it's a brand new race car and the summing up we're just jumped today we just can't even compete out here today let's go over to bill who's standing by with Jeff Burton and the rave essence board behind the wall champ you got caught up in a mess out there well the 27 cars fine and when he did survive he's fun I don't know if he can go up higher or what he was going to do end up stopping right in the middle the track and I wanted to go low but the five ball was there and I couldn't you know I couldn't run over him to keep him you know and there's nowhere to go so I ended up going right into the 27 it's a shame because we weren't great but we were decent it was already 30 than the run event 12 and another thing going well the front of this car is all torn up his crew will work on getting it back out but right now he's up behind the wall this team would really like to finish strong - he's got a new ride with Roush Racing in 96 let's take a look at the point standings if they were awarded right now the points from this race you can see that Terry Labonte is the only one of the top five that makes a move he moves into the top five up two positions Ted Musgrave moves down to Rusty Wallace stay the same and Bill Elliott moves into the top ten putting Morgan Shepherd down to 11th Bobby Hamilton Morgan Shepherd Jarrett would also move up position run down and cope up so a lot of positions are being changed here in the top 20 and Darrell Waltrip would gain two spots at points were awarded four right now yep okay bye yep one lap to go signal being given Jerry what's the story on rusty how long we'll be involved in that collar shaped like an ax miscue in the pits here bump cost about an extra five or six seconds they let the jack down too quickly on the right side did it net1 lotta times better Jack the car back up and tighten the lugs and the true curse woman to be quick in the pits and they just get a little too quick for themselves rusty wanna lines have been ninth position for the restart the 13 cars on the lead lap and Jeff Gordon had having stayed out on the track as Jerry punch pointed out to hit those bad ones lon facebait can't stop these that's about where he was before the caution came out they have nothing to lose good strategy on their part is the green flag ways those five bonus points very important of course here's the green and all the partying TAF eyes Levani slides up the track and he is losing positions one after another is Bill Bennett [Music] Darrell Walker coming up there now apparently carried to the car to stop pulling on said they thought they might have a problem the drive plate on one of the rear the other ones I can put their truck but obviously the car not running nearly lockdown lockdown man when the green flag dropped it just did not go in Dale a little tap [Music] he has lost several position back to second now now the car seemed to be pulling through you seem rusty from the bottom Jericho that is for a position take get it done [Music] whether water laughter Jeff but I [Music] rusty finally makes it past happen on the clock our answer terry labonte from Jerry punch what Terry said he thought happened on the restart was he thought the drive plate is broken to the car didn't wanna forward and will return to the corner the 28 car the knows where car actually picked the rear of his car Oh I think that one excited parla to the rear wheels my rear wheels up and start spinning down straight away back merci did you Brown get some traction never see the Bonnie trying to get by Elliott my body trying to move in the fifth position lose on the inside of Billy Elliot and he does it [Music] that's a what if this thing goes green the rest of the day and the rest of the way we've only have about 81 left looks to me like Bernard is looking pretty sweet-looking off the good coaster the traffic to come up through before he can ever get up there too not only those that are in the the court decisions [Music] and Dale Jarrett started back to about 14th in him in sorry for came and he is on with

back to 11th position we understand he has a brake problem on the Kodak film Chevrolet right exactly what that was all about the main one right behind in is the 24 car on Jeff Gordon if you can get by and that would be for position and there goes Gordon so he picks up one more spot there's the 21 car let's go underneath his car [Music] nearly as much as it was in the early going and about the same or maybe you know [Music] as hard as he was before [Music] Sterling Marlin about to go a lap down down he's been that way several times today [Music] Mark Martin fourth in the points wandering a black [Music] a lap so far today he started this race in he was as high as second on one thirty-six lap and his lowest position has been 18th on lap 309 currently in [Music] in the seven spot of Westeros bobby labonte right behind him there in eighth place [Music] [Music] seven if he finishes in the top ten it'll be his thirty top ten finish your at Martinsville that's quite a lot of record is suppose good of a race driver he is in Hef's Martin [Music] by virtue of his points position of course everybody started this race according to and that is as high as he has got as low as 34 [Music] is still trailing Dale Earnhardt but by how much losing ground is he first a second and the spin and caution is out again Jeff Gordon is saved he was about 200 feet from being a put a lap down yep oh and blade speed got his car going right in front of the leader burner trying to shake that laffy it's our ninth caution of the day and it will set up some pit stops now hopefully to the end of the event which is only 37 laps from being over we've been seeing the 5 car of Terry Labonte turn in some excellent pit stops and the crew is going to get another chance at it here in a moment here comes Earnhardt but you hear the Terry Labonte is a huge disadvantage he's a couple seconds by turn aren't getting in and John Kernan is there tire changer [Music] pressure [Music] Tarzan totally important they learned hard meanwhile they're changing left-side tires on the territory here is the five car he is down he will come down pit road rider how did Rusty Wallace not pin well correct position I guess let's go to Bill Weber four tires for putting the right-side tires on the Western Auto Chevrolet bobby labonte who goes by waiting for Kyle Petty to leave pit road Jeff horsemen Walter's coming back out Rusty Wallace picks up the lead yeah he can go the rest of the distance I think this forest fuel is concerned and didn't want to give up that track position stays in front question is will the tires be able to carry him to the victory will be back to answer that question and others in a moment man has always been fascinated with sanity but winning is more than a flash of speed it's a

carlene's over they learn [Music] Hamilton his last two races a second last week a fifth at Richmond and he's third here this week this team is coming alive [Music] don't wartime that certainly is

and Grissom and todd bodine get together Terry Grissom's rear bumper off Dale Jarrett's excellent run isn't going to be so excellent now as they come down they'll stay on the lead lap yeah I think there are North backed off and land yep a vamp is now rusty another brainless ii-if NASCAR will decide to rusty was thinking that they had taken the caution flag the last time by our hardest sin no we did not think so we'll let them decide that while we take a look at what happened up there in the third turn they'll get to run going into the turn gets the fender up alongside Derrick apparently didn't know he was there they hit and around the goat Derrick played a 360 so he kept going once again same deal just make some contact and you're right Jericho just didn't realize who's there and

has been 14 today [Music] is currently in 8th spot again Fe has an average 10th place finish for me the traces regardless of what anybody else does Jeff Gordon will have the NASCAR Winston Cup team and everyone an average of ten yep [Music] as usual I was not paying attention to you five Karla Bonnie he's back and forth so all of a sudden Bobby Hamilton who was worried about being the aggressor
