1992 at a hundred 44 miles per hour we'll ride along today with the pole-sitter in but one the abun one ground shipping you will Kenny Schrader's trying to end a 120 race victory drought and ride alongside on the front row Mark Martin in the Valvoline Ford Thunderbird Jack Roush GMC Jimmy safety truck the drivers will ride with today here on CNN welcome to our live telecast everybody I'm Mike joy Buddy Baker and Ernie Irvan alongside of Randy but joy comes on to pit road makes a stopping and goes back out to join the field so next time bye we'll look for a green flag let's check quickly down on pit road we're Glenn Jarrett and Randy Pemberton are today well one thing you guys have to realize out there in TV land these guys got no practice on this racetrack here yesterday now the bottom line is they're going to go out there they're going to shake these cars down now you're going to hear a lot about spring rubbers and a lot of chassis changes on the first pit stop the bottom line is some of these guys have four rubbers in all the springs all the way around someone will be taking them out putting them in all day long they'll be making chancy changes on the first stop Glenn Jarrett what do you got or any a lot of concern has always here at Pocono is fuel mileage I polled most of the guys here in the top 20 want to see how they do that to best so far Bobby the bodies number 18 Darrell Waltrip they figure they go around 38 39 left the guys to least Michael Waltrip Rusty Wallace to Mark Martin the only figure in about 32 33 laps that may change after the first caution thirty early penetrates I'll tell you probably some of the things going to make the race exciting is people haven't had no practice so now we're going to find out how good they were when they showed up and that's uh you know play a hard fact on the crew chiefs know it makes you guys buddy well Mike the fans at home are fixing to see one of the greatest things in all Volvo Racing five wide down the front straightaway corn floor it's a two lane first corner so you guys are in for great race here today the log is front stretch in Winston Cup racing 3750 beat as the green flag way and we're underway here at Pocono trainer got a real good jump on that start look at him six abreast oh boy whoo Bobby Hamilton got in front of Mark Martin that may make contact if they went into turn number one see Joe Nemechek way up high there that's not the place to be there's no rubber down on that part of the racetrack very slick up there he's wanting to get down low because the preferred line around this racetrack right now is right around the bottom through the corner Mark Martin caught up high and Jeff Gordon takes advantage of number 24 underneath this is for third place behind ken Schrader now Darrell Waltrip did not get off to a good start if Dave Marcus works around the outside of all Mike Darrell Waltrip is a very comfortable race car driver and something's wrong with this car he wouldn't be dropping back like that right now he may have a fog well for something like that so he's definitely all fake waltrip verdict charlotte expects to go all the way today now marked down to the inside behind the front ken schrader Bobby Hamilton and Jeff Gordon lead a three-way fight for fourth place they better hooked up clinch with Bobby Hamilton Brad up under the pole setter Kenny Schrader and you see Jeff Gordon there in third spot rest up better get mine and get those guys because again used to have to get away from other cars here Darrell Waltrip dropped from seventh to last on the first lap of this race fourth place now it's Mark Martin Ricky Rudd in fifth and Rusty Wallace in six battling Geoff Bodine Bodine scar bounced off the wall in practice just before qualifying they've only had three laps of practice all weekend here across the tunnel turn there your three leaders and there's the separation back to that next battle you can see the cars that are following people through there you can follow a car through there and kind of gauge a little bit faster time to corner by watching the car in front movement so the advantage right now is not Kenny Schrader you see Bobby Hamilton they're happy to pull it away rique our breakaway new Chevrolet is in the Pontiac Hamilton gap back to Mark Martin Ricky Rudd Jeff Conine Rusty Wallace and derrike cope well up among the top ten steel hustles back off into turn number one here's Jarret Darrell Waltrip in Angele is going to bring his Western Auto Chevrolet in Mike they lost a cylinder on the start of the race they do not know why they are hopeful praying that it is nothing but a plug wire but they are down a cylinder and has to bring him in check him out Waltrip is on pit road field across the tunnel turn and let's go back to class and Walter breeze the car you can hear the engine misfiring and there's a lot of smoke it's more than a plug wire I'm afraid yeah it's there's a lot of smoke I could smell oil smoke coming out of it so he's got a serious serious problem man what a terrible break he had such a good car was looking forward to his first full run he has shut it off we've got to get to work Schrader's has led every lap so far Bobby Hamilton and Jeff Burton trying to check out on the field they are not as close together as they look from this longshot yeah but Mark Martin sitting back there in 4th place right now have a very strong race car and he's the type of driver to sit back here by this time a little bit find somebody he feels comfortable running then traffic whip and he'll make a move back on this prop bunch randypepper do they just let you guys know the 28 car has radioed in Dale Jarrett has he has a bad vibration just a quick note we'll keep an eye on Dale again wherever there was no practice at all yesterday as he works under Greg sacks the Kendall Oil Pontiac and right with him Sterling Marlin we used seat Greg Beck moving out there here comes Jarrett Oh three wives going down into the flat corner somebody has to give here Marlin cook you knows who did Chevrolet out boy and he's into giant he's in trouble he was into the wall caution is out jerilyn got in the back of a round as they get entered in the flat corner coming towards the front straightaway there and what I tell you kind of one of them write some deals you know Dell it went made made his move into the corner and uh looked like he had got a little bit loose getting in there and ended up sterling got into him way over you think Greg sacks drover in there he's checking up just a little bit Sterling's coming in he makes contact right here get the back wheels real light and he turned sideways and runs backwards up towards the wall for the second week in a row the Robert Yates havilland poured into the concrete very early in the race three laps last week at Dover four laps here at Pocono TNN Motorsports live coverage from Pocono Pennsylvania continues after this [Music] [Music] the Miller Genuine Draft Rusty Wallace car [Music] this is Bill Jarrod's NASCAR you can't get his engine you can't get his tires but you can get his motor oil Texaco Havoline Formula three it's formulated to control volatility in the high toilet paper ization it provides complete protection and it's the exact same handle and you can buy right off the show which by the way is a heck of a lot easier NASCAR drivers say there's no track in the world it's tougher on brakes that the one in Martinsville Virginia so when they take the green flag here they all have one thing in common the same brand of brakes cuz without it you can't come down this straightaway at 120 miles an hour and still make it through the turn so which brand do NASCAR drivers use to get them through 500 laps at Martinsville performance friction carbon metallic and we stock all that on us all [Music] [Applause] [Music] Sunday after Sunday we believe in putting on her best maybe that's why no car campaign has won more races in the history of NASCAR than Chevrolet [Music] today's exclusive coverage of the UAW GM teamwork 500 on TNN is brought to you by cold filtered Miller Genuine Draft making the world a very cool place by Haviland formula 3 motor oil add more life to your car take it to the star by Chevrolet but Carson trucks 36 million people depend on every day genuine Chevrolet by the more than 1000 autozone stores across America autozone the best parts in Auto Parts and by split fire the patented performance spark plug it only costs more till you use it welcome back to Pocono were under a crash under the caution for crash by Dale Jarrett at turn number 3 let's an umber of the cars made pit stops first to Glenn Jarrett we're standing by in the for pit right now and Dale Jarrett has come over to crew chief Tony Glover of course stone and Marlin we showed you had gotten into the back of Dale he came over and asked him pasture land just basically what he was thinking about Dale's a little upset right now he does not want to talk to us but he basically asked Tony Glover what - what sterling was thinking about this this second week in a row like Mike said that Dale had been taken out by someone else's actions are Misty's however you want to term it but honestly my brother's no matter who he is there's not much point in not having those things happened in this early in the race there's 500 miles to go I I certainly understand how he feels while the while we were away a couple of cars that qualified pretty well made pit stops Bobby Labonte who started 10th made a pit stop change all four tires and made a major adjustment to chest he was very very loose Kyle Petty also came in last week's winner and he made a major adjustment on the chassis most of them adjusting the track bar this is a new tire that you're running here at at Pocono it's got more staggering the cars are loose didn't get much time to set them up Randy well I'm glad you answer that question as to where Dale Jarrett went we were here in a flash the car was sitting in the garage area and no one in it smoke billowing from it Glen and everybody help there it's a rear end all knocked out of it of course there got the train change the driveshaft as well as probably the trailing arms fuel cells pretty much nailed in on it just as team just shaking their heads they cannot believe the luck that they have had out here and Winston Cup racing this year upstairs that car has completed five laps in two weeks and again in both cases because of contact from the rear it was clear from the replay that Dale Jarrett enter turn 3 slower than the car in front of him that he had checked up not clear what caused not that well Mike what he had to do Brett Sheck drove in on the outside then took the preferred line so he checked up just a little bit sterling had a full head of steam and he cracked him in the back end I mean I'm sure sterling didn't mean to do it but he did get them back though and turn him right around we'll look for green this time by after the first caution of the day coming out as they completed four laps here starter doyle more telling to hold it down with a restart and now we are back to green jeff gordon got white stars and gave Bobby Hamilton a start takes seconds five the mic you came past on the outside but Bobby Hammond Hamilton for some reason well he gets pot back then no point me explaining what happened there because he's back now you see Gordon looking to the bottom side though Hamilton is it a little bit high they're coming out of the corner and I'll say down the back straightaway he's going to lose several spots get them turn to look at the lineup on Bobby Hamilton they'll all get in a row right it's the shark pool out there when somebody gets the least little bit out of line isn't it it is and you know later into the day and won't have that problem [Music] it's amazing that you know you're all single-file down now stacks of sterling marlin side by side yeah they're this time sacks trove in hard but he's gonna lose two spots there and everybody's dropping in behind curling down the front straightaway the plan Musgrave give us a great race than for buck Strickland look way inside a sterling marlin in a line right down on the apron against the curving Hut Stricklin well who will Musgrave go with that may determine up there back in line then go file [Music] look it looked like backpacks we pulled to the inside to try to make sure Teddy couldn't get down under him you know once he gets in line then they're all running at that same speed no here come Strickland he wants Sterling Marlin spy boy Marsh Braun the process don't you Donny yeah it really is you know maybe they give a really darling back on dream again look like we've seen this movie before if we have I tell you either you get a little bit on the move here I'll climb here comes Musgrave what's the family channel for down underneath great sex who had poked out alive looking for Hut Stricklin they get back to the file before they get in the corner and Bobby Hamilton trying to move back up underneath Ricky Rudd's ty Ford well you see just behind me I'm losing them they're at the number to the Wallace and Rusty Wallace Brunswick racetracks very head he's very smart in this area right in this part of the racetrack it's like a road course and I don't have to tell you how good he is on those four Greg sacks is now moving on the outside of Brett Bodine the pass on the outside he'd get the outer border peoples that went all through that corner looks like he's gonna pull it off Dave coming out of the family now the 11 car actually out accelerates to 44 look like our nerves will make it but it does you really have to really have a good shot coming off with that turn three a good straight back there people make it outside work whether it works or not lose the spot after spot but that can be because the car is not able to stay on the bottom of the racetrack I made using much-respected began I know to tell the people you know we actually look at this racetrack there's it everybody looked at a different way but we actually looked at turn one turn two and turns we all right breaks AK battles Todd Bodine here there's Jimmy Spencer in the picture 23 and moving up Bobby hill and 77 the Deaf Direction star yes to back up front Kenny Schrader has led every lap so far but now his Hendrick stablemate Jeff Gordon closes in on the rear bumper we'll be right back with you live here on TNN today millions of Americans are running faster with the same sized engines and farther on the same amount of you millions have discovered the patented advantages of the split fire spark plug a difference that delivers on every stroke of every business five extra horsepower by merely installing these plugs a four point eight percent gain in mileage if you're not running this quickfire you are probably behind someone who is let's fire more

lead back and forth while we were in break here's the first pass well Jeff moving to the inside there on Schrader and makes it look pretty easy but just after he passes he me picks up a direct push in this car and it really gets bad now captain coming out of turn number one here Schrader will make the pass back it happened while we were away that tells you what team means when the race starts there is no team and up front now Bobby Hamilton wants to lead generators his I don't think so and he's definitely not on shredders team right and there's Richard Petty's and he probably adjusted this hat in the fifth right now it's got to make him feel great Bobby how much has been out front most of the year look at this car we really go down the straightaway he's riding a rocket anymore they do have a really good motor in the car we were in Kenny Schrader's car you can see Jeff Gordon - he was way wide he's gonna lose some spots below the third not as I stay on the bottom of things like Rusty Wallace is down under Jeff now then you get into a tunnel turn here they are here's that battle for third place Wallace is trying to bring Mark Martin along with him now rescue finally cut well he's gone away to the front straightaway that's a pretty place real wide avenues I Thank You coach Baker that tells you what I know about Rusty Wallace doesn't wait to known anybody mark Barton's car and Sterling Marlin has caught the lead pack like this is the classic example when the chassis goes away at the racetrack you can be running so well down the straightaways did not mean a thing at all corner here you could be Hercules down the straightaway but you got to get through that corner well what's happened to Jeff Gordon's card land Mike they're trying to figure it out I thought the Ray Evernham he's talking to Jeff now this racetrack is so big they only have communication with a good communication as they come down the front straightaway their radios won't reach back to the other side for a stop again he said to Jeff told him all at once the car with just went to chunk he didn't know what had happened and Ray told him back on the radio said okay just take it easy cool it for a while maybe it'll come back they feel like that he on that charge to the front he might have just overheated the tires we'll see now is there something Hank what's that waving off Bobby Hamilton something the father the arrow Brennan - well as festive way perfect or is that remember on the first lap going into turn one he and Mark Martin got together they did touch the loop and they don't eat that's enough that won't bother anybody that's not a black flag therefore the fiberglass was part of the rear bumper covers going into turn one he had passed Mark Martin the mark out of Noah's into him right there is made a little contact remember Charlotte Charlotte Kenny Schrader was running off a bid broke the motor or something he's running good again here him Bobby earth to you the best colors now for fourth place Mark Martin and Sterling Marlin there's Jeff Gordon right back at them and it's a gap behind them Mike if Jeff is really pushing as bad as he looked like he was the best thing he can do is stay with traffic like that and just drive along behind them and let it loosen them up in the wind stream now Morgan Shepherd the Eatontown and the affair now the other God and black is back Oh Elliott now you sleep Elliot check up there he hadn't either brought right into taco town and had the same reaction there Elliot back in Batman black this week [Music] a car's right there grader says I want to lead as many laps as I can he goes back under Hamilton take the lead away again look at Rusty Wallace coming in pictures they have a black car does not like to run third I can tell you that petty cars run well here last year Wally Dallenbach led this race driving number 43 I think represented cars running well most places they have a lot of problems a you know in pits and stuff various times this year but that race cars been very very competitive all year there's a nap the running order napping we keep America running I'll show you how they're running your Pocono 17 of 200 laps are complete 500 miles of scheduled distance threat of rain late in the day but we've been assured that we'll get at least halfway in that zone well they asked me who was gonna win the race today and I said Rusty Wallace but I'm going out on a limb that is working now pretty big limb sapling you're going out on you know him in the meeting this morning folks he's there just ahead of the 43 of Bobby Hamilton Ken Schrader lead Rusty Wallace who's second Bobby Hamilton third and Sterling Marlin if the fort are looking to the third spot and he overtakes Bobby Hamilton going off into turn number two over the tunnel TNN Motorsports live coverage you just can't get any closer we'll continue after this [Music] on the road again I just can't wait to get on the road again now get on the road in this custom racing jacket for just 1995 when you buy for General Continental or who's your brand tires and while you're at it lay our winning drive contest for a chance to win a trip to

these days everything's going fast at Napa we today's exclusive coverage of the UAW GM teamwork 500 on TNN is brought to you by Napa we keep America running Kenny Schrader's leads here in Rusty Wallace wants that lead Sterling Marlin that cars been a rocket has come up through the field he had wall of both rust he started eight sterling started way back in 15th Mike we're adding on Mark Martin right now coming out turned to the race card he was out of the frame just a second ago now he's moved back in the contention here he's running this race the way you have to run and make adjustments on the pit stop to win a race okay it'd be wrong hey oh yeah yeah Ernie you were in the meeting I didn't hear her here hey Jeff Gordon he fathered me first six stars right here now just a second ago he was complaining about the car but it looks like it's coming back in just a little bit to see him back in there and then got into Traeger after Schrader got a little loose but straight away here no they dropped back in not this time that turn three that's a tough corner it really is you know you really have to have a real good shot of that corner coming off the corner and ever able to do it here comes sterling them by-the-by rusty there every side by side getting into the tunnel turd and somebody's gonna have to give their drillin got that fun dream but coming out of that corner there aren't in and you could see Rusty's car get loose coming out and you have to go up higher on the racetrack to catch it and I guess turtle in second place didn't you pick him to the fan all right Schrader has believed that they've been knocking on the door Sterling Marlin at the yellow car the kodak chevrolet right behind in the miller ford of Rusty Wallace at the STP Pontiac than all chasing Budweiser Chevy up straighter and here comes Jeff for denieth cap by Marc if they need two cars I mean that happens here a lot of times you'd get that outside Ruth and that's how I'll take off pony and it'll take you a couple F to get everything running again on yourself not the car I tell you the draft really makes a big effect here you know especially when somebody gets up up under somebody coming out of turn one there right now got in there and and slid up a little bit no marks probably gonna get the fit position but before when rusty that somebody got up on his bumper Sherman did and that made him loosen it just slows him down and you're slow down the whole backs right away continue to get into that telephone and then you make it a lot for the lead Sterling Marlin Wow I'm telling you that cars pulling across that court Jude now watch traitor he'll get back sundry these guys love to race I tell you there's nothing better than having a good race car Poconos if you can change to lead three times in one last year now one thing that's not readily apparent from what you're seeing or even what we hear sitting here at the racetrack is that these cars don't necessarily run in Top Gear all the way around this hit the speedway I tell you get thing you put that brought that up but you know basically everybody the majority and the cars are shipped in today they have a Jericho transmission and what they're doing is about the start/finish line are a little further down they shift into high gear we're going into turn one they'll downshift the third gear so run third gear most of the cars all the way back around they'll start finishing some of the cars are actually learning the different gear ratio they'll shift about the start/finish line downshift into one and then shift again in the fourth about the middle of the back straightaway and then downshift again getting into turn two and then run third gear back to the car finish line at the spotter telling Kenny Schrader's a car inside and that was Rusty Wallace who takes over second spot so for some of these drivers are not way they drive this bike it's a road course with all left turns that's basically what it is you know buddy Becker was saying that today and it's a road course but it's got all left terms you know it so it's a really unique race traffic and you kids get a car here and you get off the road but it's a real fast April you're inside traders car there you can see it move how in the corner they're going into turn one he lives at the position they're before close second place you can see favors go in the corner just wash way out now that's what happens here a lot of times you'll have a car that works for 10-15 left and all of a sudden you'll get a push or a loose condition and all of a sudden you'll drop back you missing what in the world and all sudden effects will come back to you again I play a part of the real strong and look like you're off the face that's what happened to Jeff Gordon got to the front car drifted back now he's on the march back toward the front again 24 laps are complete Sterling Marlin is the leader and he is trying to drive away he'll be right back a thousand pounds the endless black top wins gone free forever then you leaned into a turn that took you toward a job a house heavy now you're revving up the saw buying plywood lumber patio doors and ply bead collecting the scheudle windows picking vinyl siding to separate your home from the elements and from the rest of the pack georgia-pacific we help you build on your imagination from darling to Talladega to Daytona rocking in and watch these blend in every major NASCAR race Busch chair recognizes the pole winner wassup Bush pole award because if there's one thing we know this year [Music] Bush feel proud sponsor an official beer of NASCAR if you've got lots of features have another now to do and be happy as we chant in ship rodeo on TNN tonight she hates her boss don't you dare

Kings been around a long time just like King and me right King I hope came away stay tuned for the continuing episodes of The Lone Ranger you buy the used-car King me six laps completed Pocono Sterling Marlin has taken off into his own time zone here here's how the list of Cup points look coming in here brought to you by Haviland former free motor oil add more life to your car take it to the star sterling 100 points behind Dale Earnhardt in the quest for the Cup Jeff Gordon's is six points back to Sterling Mark Martin in fourth and Ted Musgrave just a point away from the Jack Roush teammate in their trailer was loose off of turn two three we gather to be still in there you just about hit me with you here comes house Strickland time to get this far away from crater on the bottom side he checked Opie's yeah I've got a pretty good race car an early and perhaps unscheduled pit stop for ricky rudd in the tide for mike you know it's a guess everybody a forest set up right now and it's you a little bit off the better to come in and fix it right now get on fresh tires and get back out there and make some time here slam well Ricky red has brought the top 14 months guys we're hearing them on the radio guys they're talking about tires they all want different tires couple em we're going to make some chassis adjustments course this will be a four-tire change and as I said earlier this is the new tire they had no idea how it's going to do under race conditions they didn't know how exactly second chances no practice so they're having to learn during the race for tires and fuel that's all ruts down in a way we're gonna go back down to Martin Burt spitting a minute here he seems to have lost radio communication or gonna try to get him another earpiece I'm watching him take it on the launch ticket that used to clean the radiator hand him a drink of water with so uh or this one that uses ten in the water with we're going to see what the problem is what should be in in just a second his teammate Ted Musgrave is in right now running back up to speed 29 laps complete of green flag pit stops begin well you see Ricky Rudd's a lap down right now caution comes out man he's in big trouble sterling how's that fine now one thing that can happen Charla Marlin he finally feels that this car is perfect right now everybody else is drawing just on their cars and he thinks he's right everybody else makes decision to make up us chassis changes he may not be the fast sterling started 15 there's his progression to the front at 29 laps he has led five races this year and they've all been on the big tracks Daytona Darlington Talladega Charlotte and now don't call it that guarantee he won on the racetrack to start the team so he can call it to Pocono problems without tell you Donna Malin has a very very oh they've got a killing in the update but anyway ken Schrader and Mark partner on pit road let's go to Glen Labs upset what so Schrader and Martin oh look like the change of positions coming up here right there Mark Martin does have a radio problem he cannot hear crew chief speed meal but he can't hear the spotter and the spotter can hear Steve so there's never the kind of related communications he is they are giving him an extra earpiece he's going to try to change it himself if he gets the caution but other than that Park radioed in he car was probably okay they just wanted to drive tires [Music] anywhere pcs away about twenty point five seconds for both of them they came in together so between twenty twenty one seconds pretty good stop for both things looked like they made an adjustment on Kenny Schrader's car but he wasn't the normal jacking bolt adjustment in the rear and they went down on the right rear which is a pan or a bar adjustment now we got Sterling Marlin gonna fit right now here and he's got that to come down pit road 65 miles an hour on pit road today about 4400 second gear it's going to be a four-tire stop obviously the car will rocket so far no special changes for certain we haven't seen a wedge bridge the win yet there around the left-hand side one bump up on the jack left and left-side tires going in second cannon gas is in important to get every drop in I think they did get a full 19 flat for Sterling good stop Joe Nemechek in just behind him Terry in the body Bobby Hillin on pit road so his Todd Bodine Jimmy Portman Rick mast and the 40 car that breaks ax you're slim all right now we're in the champion they learned on fitfully what a good pit stop I was looking to one of the crew members on Ken Schrader's team ken church at fuel splashing dives are trying to wash that out right now but I didn't get across one Earnhardt look like an off the good stop again four times the fuel I did not see in the desperate boy wait a minute I can't make the Friday it was Andy Petree and find out exactly what that was todd bodine completes his stop at Bobby Hamilton Rusty Wallace and Jeff Gordon and Jeff Burton come to pit road pit road here at Pocono is wider than the straightaways on many of the Winston Cup race tracks lotta maneuvering room so you try to get it into that pit stall to get the job done the other thing is we have to tell you know we really didn't get any pit road speed until then the actual paint come out and what they usually do that the day before timing Bobby Hamilton on the a1 steak sauce pit stop time clock from Q by a-1 it spicy a1 Bowl together their house steaks are done 19.4 for Hamilton Robby Loomis with the SPP team well I was watching Jeff Gordon's car they just did a minimal one round down on the right rear on that car so it wasn't that far off apparently the car was just very close and if he drove it in the corner hard it pushed out on Hut Stricklin has had a great run so far [Applause] Laker State Court on pit road let's go ready no question about it might be hot ever since he got in the car including the road race out of Searsport had a good run there wait for Hut to hit his mark he does so the Quaker State forward they go to work on the right side half not the only chassis adjustment that he wanted was a little air pressure change in the tires other than that no major champion justice although that can be considered major left-side tires going out a couple of pumps with a Jag second can of gas already had him up with a great front door wants to get even going down it away 18 6 good stop great stop Hut Stricklin was seventh that Charlotte fourth of Dover and in this race he started 17th and got all the way up to 6th before pit stops began he has now led one lap that's probably one of the best athletes all day I finished fourth here in 1991 well I'll tell you what whoever buys this Dimas don't get a quality team Bernstein this don't sell at the end the year and the 26 car it's such a good race car is the Seamus team get out of racing again this year because they think you have a driver and everything put together now to have a Jeff will die here battles over exactly buddy why don't you buy that kid I was just gonna ask that you could be a car over look at this great race going down come on Jeff Oh dime picks up the throttle powers off the corner down the back straightaway Mike we'll ask you again later Greg sacks right behind but he's been a team owner there's a lot of money and racing he put some of it there but he was like.he with the team owner and a driver mostly so maybe there he needs to start with the deal about being an owner well you're a truck owner how's it going man jeopardize this race remember he stopped under the first caution flag to make an adjustment in his Exide battery Ford glad you told us that because I do know why he hadn't leave now if I could we think he's coming down pit road again into the fifth day right now and he's pitting on lap 34 right now he's not 35 so basically a lot of the guys think they can go 33 to 38 laps on a normal caution or normal and fuel stock todd bodine are rather Kyle Petty also on pit road as Geoff Bodine makes his stop Mike Wallace also yeah he's one of the guys in Stockton there's last week's winter Kyle Petty [Music] on the right side elebrate everything works me everybody rolling [Music] Thank You a half a day to get two carrots put on a service station it takes about 15 seconds to have a good coffee so here your leaders

exclusive coverage of the UAW GM teamwork 500 on TNN is brought to you by a1 steak sauce it's how steak is done here's Sterling Marlin going off into turn number one in the Morgan McClure Kodak's Chevrolet powered by runt Pittman if you have questions about the running of this race give us a call at tnn motorsports should call us free one eight hundred four five one seven three three one and all during the race and they'll take your questions fax them to us and we'll try to answer them your 2nd 3rd and 4th Bobby Hamilton Jeff Gordon and Rusty Wallace what question called in is uniquely at this racetrack now Gary from North Carolina wants to know there's signs leading up to the corners with three and then two and then one why oh you want to stands with an answer yes we don't lie I think basically it's telling you how many feet it is into the corner and I don't think the 100 the 1 means 100 it just has to it gives you some sort of reference point a lot of the road coaches have that a lot of the Trans Am driving the stuff they basically go off a lot after there's three two and there's the one marker going off into the car basically when you're driving into turn one you'll run into about that one I remember doing that you kind of run into there because this like a huge straightaway yeah this place is so big and so wide my cat one was always my direct line back in the garden I said if you'll help me through this corner I'll never do that let's find out what happened on that round of pit stops play well as I said earlier most of the guys were reporting their cars loose Rusty Wallace just a little loose made air pressure adjustment was loose they did the panhard bar and air pressure air pressure adjustments on 43 24 and 18 bobby labonte today while we were way over that break remember he admitted on the in the Dale Jarrett crash he had about a five left pushing on the rest of the field ever [Applause] be loose except Michael Waltrip he said his call with a little time but just like Michael always did had to be a little bit okay big battle here is they work around the equipment supply company over 78 of Pancho Carter Bobby Hamilton Jeff and now underneath him and past it yes Gordon Gordon it's definitely got a really good motor we're not I tell you to speak about the motors this racetrack is probably the motors guys the motor guys nightmare I mean it's unbelievable because Europe your car is turning rpms and a range that is so long you know you're basically running the straightaway they're running on now that short shoot they'll turn 80 280 300 in that straight way this whole front straightaway they'll come off this fender about 7,000 rpms and turn around 8800 at the index rate this training it was so long and it just killed the valves frames and timing chains and every time I have a run here always broke something rather I was London the four car that's leaving now we always broke certain items and in when I got into the rough we broke a lot of items to you and normally those things don't break them neither one of those guys that murder shops the front straightaway here at Pocono is long and wide enough that it would comfortably land a 737 jet airliner yeah this shows how long that that's straight away I think we can land on this even the back trailer that's a likely walk on straight away is 3,000 feet 3,000 feet that's I can learn my plane well not my plane I couldn't land it myself but I'd like to because it'd be a lot closer to the racetrack people clean Hut Stricklin they're in the 26 car II just made a move on Hamilton I think Bobby Hamilton car maybe just a little bit off get now before us right now needing food over at Dover so he knows early in the race you're riding with Mark Martin as he and Ted Musgraves try to deal with Kenny Schrader did you see mark if everybody they have to watch from the marks car what Mark did was shift know about the middle of the front straightaway and then he down shifted get back getting into turn three or turn warning they were behind of it Musgrave you could see my face go wide that into that corner and Mark what got by him and please holding with that 10 car lengths that's what going wide there does he got a little loose getting in the corner really messing up that's all it takes here I'd really like to find out if Marc's doing the the double shift job and I want to know if he's shifting down the back later and maybe we can get a shot of that when our weather gets a little better yeah right now our helicopter that relays the in-car camera sickness can't get high enough in the air relay that signal from all the way around the track so once we're able to do that we were going to check on that for you now here's Mark Martin I'd like side by side with Schrader we can we can hear Ken Schrader's saying something about the down to turn one Claire Claire that's more important um I'll be fine what he waved a by mark had a hand out the window to Schrader Ernie I do hear what you're saying Kenny is complaining about stuff on the right in front of that car though because he just made a comment again about the right front we were definitely we're here in both spotters we were hearing Mark Martin's and Kenny Schrader's and Mark Martin spotter Steve or actually Steve Mill had come on the radio and told mark spotter to tell him that we're going to fit and so on so amount of time and he has to relay that now Mark Martin gets back underneath Ken Schrader and he's gonna drag racing so these two cars were linked up nose to tail and going to try to work together and pit together and graph together just a second ago you saw must race car drop way back there now he talked back up that's how strong he is the cars just a little bit off get now the phone he seemed drop back to supper thrown out there when they adjust this car he'll be a factor in this race later now these cars are eight seconds behind the leader Sterling Marlin is out front and Jeff Gordon has knocked it down three point six to 1.2 seconds so Gordon is flying track it down sterling boy when he gets in his rhythm he tough to beat and the kid is really hooked up right now you see the car come through the corner it's not flipping their anything it's just getting forward but he is catching sterling quite fast Jimmy Spencer has taken these smokin Joe's number 23 back to the garage area 43 laps complete up 200 as you watch Ken Schrader Mark Martin battle this is for sixth place see that's Mark Martin this now down ship there I did it down shifting it into turn water now I had a lot of trouble when I tried to downshift getting into in the turn war and they died here's a 12 card in the 2100 side somebody's gonna have to give getting away this is back at 11th place Morgan Shepherd leading derrike cope and ricky rudd mane and tail shampoo the folks that sponsor derrike cope had a big open house at their corporate headquarters in Allentown Pennsylvania Thursday twelve hundred people showed up to meet Bobby Allison and and driver Derek cope half this band stands where in straight hair or shirt I noticed that wear a pink shirts and a half events then here's that color well Martin has moved back in front of Schrader this is back at sixth place maybe straighter winning tomorrow's problem staying down on the bottom part of the racetrack now he dropped back in there just for bass along with it yeah I think that's what the problem is maybe Kenny's so when he's in the lead he's pushing a little bit now when he gets down behind one that helps the sparkle now the 24 car has caught the fork and I don't think it's somebody much longer he can be the lead or Jeff Gordon flying around this racetrack he's run him down I have the straightaway right well we may have a lead change when we come back here to Pocono International Jeff Gordon makes the move down to the inside of Sterling Marlin going off into the corner and he's going to take the lead the Gordon puts the DuPont Chevrolet out front at the 11th lead change so far today Marlin is second Strickland third Wallace Hamilton Martin and Schrader most trackers can follow the trail only as long as the weather holds up unless it's a tracker spurred on with genuine AC spark plugs AC plugs fire faster than lightning for performance so smooth even the thunderclaps and that will keep your engine on the trail to a longer line call one 800 800 it's like buying time so better track down survey see spark plugs [Music] it's not about winning the most racism I tried that two years in a row you just gotta surround yourself with the best people the best car and Goodyear Eagles the best tires in the world then you just got to go out and finish every single race Goodyear number one in racing number one and tires Goodyear Eagles and 31 top-five finishes yeah that ought to do it live NASCAR action on TNN Motorsports it doesn't get any closer Miller Genuine

they call this group the rainbow Rainbow Warriors and Jeff Gordon gets in the lead they start doing that tomahawk up here I noticed down on the front straightaway here there's about 20 of them going up and down right now that's easy for you to say Boy Wonder he was tabbed earlier this season and Gordon has led 12 of the 13 races so far this year only race he did not leave was at the road course at Sears Point did he run second or third is that race day they've been a really dominant force in win celebration this year but on the big tracks so has this far wow it's a great race car but he fight in a loose condition right now they're going to make adjustments probably on the next stop Thank You car hider we're getting report to a lot of the race cars running sideways up out of the corner okay then logistics cars and make them good ken Schrader now battles Ted Musgrave this is for seventh Mark Martin is going on by and here's Randy Lajoie John Andretti just ahead of Martin Martin he's now pretty much alone on the racetrack oh wait that's a lot of race backed up there but that's not usable something Avenger thing it's not usable plus there's those Teddy Musgrave probably gonna get the side Kenny Schrader we have to give a call to teddy Musgrave you know he ran really good laughs he ended up third and I tell you that team has really come alive I kept a kid with he and a Howard Comstock in the garage or yesterday I said you can't sneak up on him anymore dr. Mike you see Terry Labonte moving into frame Marilee was shown that they said when he qualified he didn't picked up any you know a lot of times he lost off he's close to qualifying making more academic we really heard them the complete back in the fray here he's right up front started way back so don't count him out we're gonna lap past the Kmart Little Caesars number 37 the crowd of his car for for John Andretti we talked with Andretti this week I think all of us had a chance to get a word with him he said on our telecast at Dover talked about somebody running into him got a chance to look at the video and Dan's holding pretty well right off that nobody touched him in that record over what he was saying was will that sure what it felt like it felt just like somebody turned him around as we saw and you saw at home there wasn't any contact but he was expressing that was what it felt like he he's a good young race driver and he's got a good future in this for Mike the more he doesn't want to Cup racing the lefty apologize I'm gonna tell you something everybody out there is made a mistake 51 laps are complete here Jeff Gordon is opening up his lead over Sterling Marlin our

now observe what's going on look what's happening here without Strickland I tell you Hut Stricklin is really running good there now he's up at the poke ball yeah I think he's into second place you know HUD kind of mission there's Rusty Wallace and Bobby Hamilton that's 4th and 5th place so right now we have a Chevrolet leaned forward in second third of the Pontiac forces a port I tell you that well we accessed earlier tomorrow he's in the Chevrolet need with an even third but Jeffrey makes to the top four position he was pretty good week we hadn't remakes finish at the top three position I think that the NASCAR our hats off to NASCAR because they they covered the field a little bit not much but they made the plane feel really cool and I don't think anybody can complain about it right now I don't think an argue about it I'll tell you that because it looks like you know the cars are so equal now look at rescue come through that corner oh yeah lost that baby you can see you can see the hands jerking through the steering room now that doesn't feel in the race car oh yes as it looks right there does it let me tell you if you can see it with the camera is quite that bad okay definitely okay especially that corner you're going so fast into that corner you're going a hundred and eighty five miles an hour getting into that corner you know we got another look at Rusty's fatherly watch his hands tell Lucille what a catch that's two handfuls yeah I mean that was a lot looser now once we got to see it on in slow motion okay you know I'm gonna heckle to say but that corner right there is one of the toughest in Winston Cup racing the tunnel turn it is a tough one 55 laps complete Jeff Gordon leads Hut Stricklin Sterling Marlin Bobby Hamilton and Rusty Wallace the

six one five eight eight nine six six one one wants to see him do there Rusty Wallace made a pit stop while we were away it had only been 25 laps since he's been on pit road Randy converted what they do you saw him get crossed up out there on the racetrack evidently he just didn't like the feel that my to scare himself a little bit couldn't get back in the groove came in he said he thought he had one going down we've looked at the tires in here all the guys are sick in the head they're taking tire temperatures no problem with the tire so rocky is just pitted a little early and be okay if they don't catch a caution right now but no tire down on the tooth oh just had to change forward actually Randy he might want to catch a caution right now because he toward the tail end of the lead lap he did not lose a lap but he's still on the lead lap but well as you said well out of the pit stop sequence now he's in 24th position yeah mother David Terry Labonte here I'd say Russ is going to be a factor this race you see right there the catalog star Terry Labonte moving on the inside a mosque ray moving in behind mark Hartman while we've dropped off this little boat I think that Terry Labonte may have picked it up this body takes over sixth place behind Mark Martin and ahead of Ted Musgrave but Musgrave what a string of hot five finishes he has had he is fifth in points just one point behind Mark Martin and 77 points out of third watch what that motor in the five fire you have to hit this motor and I'm dead those people have got a lot of power right now Randy dork give you heads Hendrick engines up on the roof spotting today and look at how he close right down on Mark Martin and that was in the corner - so he's got some good people behind the wall over there also he's moved out watch him he's gonna come right out nice big clear behind a five those marks father all right deal your [Music] straightaway counter-wave out the window if you want us to pull the rubber out of the right front end Schrader's coming in he fitted early too you know they weren't supposed to fit to lap 64 was their strategy I'm sure Randy will have a second on their grids gonna be there in case red brings a Budweiser Chevrolet in again I said they were fighting an awfully loose condition laughter so and he'll make an adjustment on the right rear of the car there two three ramps so that's okay that was the jackscrew that just was there so they're really trying to tighten straighter star up a little bit of a slow pit stop not the best a truck twenty two point four seconds that's tough that's about two three seconds long as they'd like to see you down in a way we're gonna stay right here we'll get back to mutt Martin comes in Dave Marcus was very slow coming down to pit lane well below the $65 speed limit he goes back out Todd Bodine is on pit road here's Sterling Marlin in the pits Randy sterling radio to Tony Glover II said boy we could really use a caution see if this sounds rider he wanted to stick a rubber in the right front everybody else complaining about being loose sterling was complaining about being tight last pit stop they made an adjustment with air pressure they're already over the left side for a four-tire stop fuel goes in lover on the radio tell them to go honey flat pretty good stop again for the four crew I tell you if there were one the rubber in the right front it would have to be I would think the car would be losing our professor Baker spring rubbers a spacer that goes between the spring and the a-frame what's it do [Music] you're pushing you don't want to skip in the spring you want to get better bite so you gonna make it a lot easier to push down so I think you probably want to take one out but under the green they don't have time to reach in there do all that work so they're looking for a thousand to make this major adjustment Bobby Hamilton underneath Hut Stricklin that'll change second place the Pontiac back into second and drop the forward the third I am impressed with how much is true I'll tell you what I take back to what I said a while ago the crews not letting in down this break stops he comes back out in second place that's great Ted Musgraves family channel for Howard Comstock screw completing pit work sending Ted back out and we know we thought that the rusty pitting that much earlier that really wasn't that bad a deal rush is probably gonna end up close to the lead you know it fits nicely for Ernie off our eight hundred-number delaffei called in for Slatington here pencil why did the Chevy's run forward rear ends that's what Hutchins themself I guess I guess you know Winston Cup racing has always been that way will tell you the second here's that strict them coming down onto pit road or Andy's in his pit I'll tell you they're waiting for the 26 car to come on pit road putt comes down pit road hits his mark once again you know it's amazing what momentum can do in this sport you know it does it in football basketball baseball but this team has definitely got some momentum on the right hand side already around to the left jack goes up one pump again a couple more just to make sure the car is cleared again cuts down and away and 17 to blend Jarrett lemon Mark Martin they've already changed the right side guys because unless tough we heard speed wheels now the spotter to a spark you wanted to rubber out of the right front he never held his hand after women never make that move [Music] air gun blew up there guys yes that's what he was waving for to get another gun in there and here's jeff borkin coming into the face later there's Glenn gonna be in his head when we're trying to get there guys it's about five spaces between me and Jeff Gordon I'm here my camera hood is on the way and Jeff Gordon has pulled up I want to see if they make him adjust but again most of them be making the adjustment via air pressure want to see what the Gordon does but I don't think they want adjust too much as well as that car was running looks like a good stop so far I did not see any adjust invation they did wanted we got about 18 seconds flat great pit stop Randy three-car comes down pit road carrying the body already in left side just about flex the 42 tire carrier pile penny is in down here that held up terry labonte just a little bit after a great stop by the five crew around the left-hand side for Kyle's true on the 42 car left side tires are in second can of fuel in once again Kyle looks very calm on the car down to the way her heart is an uphill road now penny completes his service comes back out there's Bobby hill his car and the frame and Dale Earnhardt completes his service goes back out under green at lap 64 second round of green flag pit stops Rick mast finishing up going back out so it's Dick Trickle ask Geoff Bodine comes on to pit road I think after all the pitstop I think that Jeff Gordon is probably gonna end up in the hey thank you right Paul Andrews team servicing Jeff bodean reason they run those forward rear ends is the Chevrolet rear end is what the engineers call a Salisbury type rear end and to change the gear ratio you have to change the whole rear end housing at all with a Ford type rear end you can simply unbolt the center section the ring and pinion and the driveshaft yoke unbolt that take it out put another one in and much more simply change the gear ratio that's why all the teams run the Ford rear end and it is a NASCAR rule that they do so 65 laps complete in the tsypko Ford of Morgan Shepherd whose owners the

Musgrave with Terry Labonte and Bobby Hamilton single file right now and here goes Labonte I tell you you know just a comment a little better like on Darryl's problem it's amazing that we didn't have any more problems because nobody got any practice after qualifying I would say 100% of the cars changed motors after qualifying everybody's he had the qualifying minute they changed motors they didn't have any ways to to see what was going on in you know evidently had something wrong in the mode didn't know about Jeff Gordon to put John Andretti few laps back there are now 27 cars posted on the lead lap excuse me that would John I'm sorry you know you watch Jeff Gordon go around the racetrack he's going down the front straightaway here you'll see the fans here that's just informing him it's

that's an emphatic no well yeah what's a day what's a tire costing thing I think you around 1300 to 1400 dollars a set for ya betta poor we don't talk tires Mike you never buy one by set right yeah and yeah as 1,200 to right around and you have per step and for race like this and you find out how many you gonna need you mount enough and a lot of times he'll go back to buy several more so if you have any problems whatsoever during the race now John from Ontario wanted to know what happens to Dale Jarrett's order all offerors tires now that he's out of the race couldn't turn him in for credit saving for the night's race what did he do I think Goodyear has actually made it where now you can actually turn those tires back in you can return five or ten sets but you know used to be in time to come you used to only be able to turn one set that day but now they they made it where they loosen that up but he wants to talk with them yeah boy I'm jumping to my fader we let me tell you what happened in Darlington for the first time they made the decision to turn it and carries out the race they were very lucky they use that tire last week and Ogas as a backup car and they had all these hands to bring in there make them work it over so they turn him in now like when I had my race team there was two companies in there and if I've mounted 20 sets of good years that that's not 20 sets of Hoosiers just in case it was that nature that would work in that particular day the more here's Randi well just to add to that these guys down here get three sets of tires until qualifying is complete they can't go out there run run in eight or nine or ten sets like they could a couple of years ago that was to help to keep the cost down whether or not that has been accomplished is yet to be determined by some car owners but in these pits about six or seven sets is what I counted prior to race time here for most of these teams thanks Randy and what happens to use tires want to make nice souvenirs 73 laps are complete Jeff Gordon leave Hut Stricklin Rusty Wallace and Sterling Marlin this is Dale Jarrett's NASCAR you can't get his engine you can't get his tires but you can get his

Cedar Ridge and Winnebago the choice of champion here's the battle we left as we went to break Ted Musgrave leading Terry Labonte and Bobby Hamilton this is at fifth place boy Terry get in that flat corner they're super good now when he gets on the throttle here he's not losing anything and you know this - that cars really got nice motor Jimmy Hartman on pit road the Deuter sport and health lawyer race last night and Myrtle Beach South Carolina and so and will also miss the Daytona Winston Cup race 15 will drive that car the rest of the year look who's back in the race after an hour and 14 minutes Dale Jarrett I was being correct your own Hut script are actually on Elton Sawyer nothing wait a minute he said it right Terra the body of Bobby Hamilton battle suit from Florida called her 800 line and father who started seventh girl walking they're often finished 40 seconds here's your Napa field standing update we keep America running so we'll show you how they're running at 78 laps Preston to North Carolina Watson oh how big Jeff Bo tides margin of victory was here last year he beat Ward Burton by one point two six seconds with Natori class coming up on 80 laps 200 miles and the weather continues to look pretty good we were washed out completely here yesterday artha 150 postponed to and no Winston Cup practice so a lot of question marks if you started this race today Steve Grissom makes a pit stop at the Meineke number 29 the use on that team of buddy parrot has resigned as vice president of operations at the very Bechtel own team and the dispirit boy that's a lot of talent there but you know sometimes you have to make a cane everybody will get with the race team and he's a real good organizer so I'm sure somebody's looking for that out there now here's ted musgrave he's caught Sterling Marlin Marlins car even though this is a two and a half mile race track doesn't sound like it did at Daytona when it won the 500 and created all that hoopla there Ted Musgrave moves on past it's not sounding like all running like right now but I think it's all in the chassis out there cars running quite well he's just having problem don't really feel anything [Music] except coming off a notice he washed out right there he Bobby Hamilton coming to the outside now does the inside Marlins car was a rock at the first 20 laps now that looks like he might have a little problem down the straightaway for Bobby Hamilton folding come too far let's ride out any weddings Afton bye he pulled over by the distance away in that one unscheduled let's look at Jeff bodean and Morgan Shepherd shepherd was the last of the leaders that were in sequence to fit remember Jeff bodean got out of the pit stop sequence by stopping on the first caution and these three cars ken Schrader in 25 Jeff Bodine in 7 1 can Shepherd 21 or running in ninth tenth and eleventh position Mike it looked like a race for the lead there's not the knees Dan racing I think any prey there at first part of the race he was able to move away from everybody now and there keep adjusting one caution brings everybody together again whole new rates these cars for 24 seconds behind the leader report 81 laps complete here at Pocono Gordon the leader Hut Stricklin in second Rusty Wallace is third Sterling Marlin and Ted Musgrave battle for fourth Bobby Hamilton six the head of Terry the body

today's exclusive coverage of the UAW GM teamwork 500 on TNN is brought to you by Napa we keep America running TNN weather radar that is our helicopter pilot reports rain in the area and we are 17 laps short up halfway if we complete half distance the race becomes official Rusty Wallace there with Hut Stricklin a ride on his bumper as they come around turn 1o ask them they've waged this battle for the past four or five left if he helps trucks I'm trying to get under Rusty Wallace down the long pawn straight away going into turn three rusty waved and passed yeah wonder how long you wanting to stay there though Oh we'll see ooh same song second verse I think I thing ye know I think rescue coming through that corner there with the backhand guitars dancing around with that Jimmy Spencer returns to the garage area completed 61 laps today whoa no rusty rusty rusty is that the toughest job out here to drive a car with the handle like that well it's not let me tell you it's not off that much it's just one of those deals where you coming off under full power like back in dumps and you have to back off or just bend right on around so got my cone built where you power it play the slides you can't do that on matrix a player they have to check up and get it back under to go there's what you do to the ground there to Bobby Hamilton Ted Musgraves let's check in his pit here's black that's Robert Hamilton if he was having a problem if the car was still a little loose which you told me earlier he's did not really had like buddies like you just said it's sliding around he said skating on him a little bit [Music] having any chance to work on the champion they couldn't hit it exactly like they wanted it but rusty is one of the best and I think Robin Pemberton his crew chief also through the vent and adjusting on the clock during the race if they ever get a caution flag to dust it off I think they'll find it Randy well Sterling Marlin is falling outside the top Kandi's come over the radio to screw chief Tony Glover says hey in the front end it's just sliding all over the place into kind of correct what I said before talking to you Ernie about taking the rubber out they're going to take one out of the right front if they get a chance but Tony's not Fletcher they think they're gonna come down pit road around lap 91 but Sterling just did not keep the front end where he wants it on the race day but then he was pretty proud of that little rubber he had in right front the back car got completely sideways getting off into turn one he's very lucky to catch it he's real lucky at a rubber in the wall from yeah and then to kind of comment on what a spring rubber is and I'm sure we showed it on TV before but it actually is a piece of rubber that goes between the coils in the store you're right I'm sorry John and it's a piece and that the coil of this pillar looks like a doughnut why most the time we'll split it here Rusty Wallace to give you know [Music] to the vodka where Terry Labonte moved by this second ago and just behind him is Mark Martin when he hit a little bit off like yet well it just seemed like you line up and really want to get after you then they will come off the corner like he wants to and that hurts you Fred awaits me hey Marc Marc stucked that bumper up under there so we could probably try to get him a little more loose here's Bobby Hamilton in 43 going to work on Ted Musgraves Wow on the outside I don't that work yeah he's gonna probably get under him now they're behind the 43 we're the spotter for the 43 car actually the sixteenth oh look at terry labonte move in there right now and chassis is set up for a long run he really comes on near the end with that stuff to see him moving under must raise they're trying to take that spot away then they make it look easy when that car gets a filling up off that corner and you have a little bit of a handling problem we have the past father car body squeezes in and front of Ted Musgrave and that will change fourth place Jeff Gordon leads here we are 13 laps from halfway and we'll be right back the other day I get in my car won't start no small problem what I need the guy says to me let's check your old one first it might not be the problem turns out he was right all I needed was a new battery cable talk about saving money how you telling me with another parts

what they do Glen well Mike in addition to changing tires are fueling the car they did make an adjustment on the track bar decided around cause acting up awfully poorly in the corners looks real loose so they they adjusted the track bar four tires and sitting away rainy well Tony Glover and the guys waiting for Sterling Marlin to come down pit road some of these cars have changed a lot Jeremy flies over the last few minutes this place is totally covered with clouds it has changed it up 10 degrees 20 minutes they're gone to work on the right front we're going to check and see if they do take a spring rubber out one way or the other out of this part Rob fluffy inside of the kodak Chevrolet left side tires on already sterlington calmly in the car left side low flow left rear get down the way they did take a rubber out of the right front there it is on pit road 21 one for Sterling that's really good doing that and I do make a chassis adjustment that's a really good stop actually pulling that spring roll around you can see Bobby Hamilton just a second ago take over the second spot Oh over the 26 car and that's trickling and showing a loose condition now I think I know just across the clearing tunnel there you see thought he just moving over let the fastest car go by right now there's a tear of the body moving underneath blowing past Strickland we will certainly be in at the front of that pack as the Hooters number 27 Jimmy Horton was overcome by fumes Jimmy Spencer top customer if there ever was one has climbed into that car to try to go the distance only one Daytona Talladega last year net same car I mean it's not James Carville same team yeah pretty fast number one the stole a car of Richard Jackson just ahead of Ward Britain's Hardee's number 31 and Ricky Craven the Kodiak 41 and the leader working underneath them that's number 20 for Jeff Gordon squeeze play look at that that's Jeremy Mayfield out on the inside the RCA satellite car is Rusty Wallace and Sterling Marlin on fresh tires last path T and derrike cope Ted Musgrave Hut Stricklin go at it behind Todd bowtie factory source t-bird the fee Hut now going in that's how you tighten the car up here that makes it a little bit tighter if you move up on your line getting in the corner there and right now I would say he'll be in the pits pretty quick now that front straightaway here is so wide that you could Park about 10 cars wide with room to get in and out so I guess racing six wide shouldn't be such a big deal but it still looks exciting the only time it's a big deal is when you get it till the end there's only room for two cars to get in that corner down there make it to taking who's gonna lift and we got six hours with her brave you're in trouble [Music] in traffic trailing Ward Burton and Rick mast were on the tail end lead lap in 19th and 20th positions Jeff Gordon is flying right at the moment we can tell he passes some great cars Randy Pemberton is in Hut Stricklin Phil Strickland running six the guy's waiting for him to come down pit road gotta tell you this story as Huss Cruz is buying the front stretch they radio filaments at Hut you keep running like you're running now we're going to give you one of those good cars we got back at the shop of course they've given them the best they could today running well has a shot to win this forest knocks on the Victory Lane since about 1990 Emily was crippled I'm in North Wilkesboro Hut Stricklin 72 Wow great stop it's the fastest operating all day motivation right there doing their dustin so apparently in tire pressure moved on that racecar it was all done through the tyres again here is Jeff Gordon moving underneath the car and driver who finished second here last year Ward Burton in the Hardee's number 31 you know that's good to see Ward's off just a little bit he moved over to the outsides of that board and goes you guys have a moderation again they know that someday they'll be on the inside won't believe this race in Hamlet and he'll move for them too and he moved for his younger brother Jeff who is a lap behind him but has fresher tires in the very bestest under eight Ricky Craven makes a pit stop comes back out the slowest stop for Hut Stricklin today was 18.6 they reeled off two straight stops of 17.2 Wow 54 for second place now behind Jeff Gordon Mark Martin Valvoline Ford and the STP Pontiac a Bobby Hamilton let's get this behind them there you see Terry Labonte moving up in them right here I tell you what if I had to say right now the strongest car he's not attract additional eyes he's not really good but the five car right now Terry the bunny I think it's the fastest bring the car out there and if you believe the analogy that this is a road course with all left turns the body is one of the best two or three road racers in NASCAR Wow somebody checked up done by the home before and Mark Martin without the face will look down the back straightaway I think that one thing oh he got a little bit too high pitch coming on the outside I think he's got a tire going down Oh am i right or the gas state Oh No not a racetrack you want to run out of gas in where the car verbal down there and turn number one that is the steepest banking here at Pocono wave wave and everybody's coming into pit he's moving back and forth with the time-bar noise coming in too steep of banking governor in turn number one and he may not have been picking up fuel 40 100 is the RPM that he must run down pit road to meet the mandatory speed limit Musgrave is in Hamilton is in here's blend well you hear the instructions are giving Martin Martin that's just to remind him every time they handed the water class they also couldn't have any laps that can go on fuel they were worried that time obviously if they had gone too far he is in there still having problems with the with the chassis under guard and like I said a while ago as long as we keep ever to make the green flag stops they can't make the number and the kind of adjustment they'd like to be pretty good stop for Barton consider the circumstances there Ricky Rudd is in if they make a chassis adjustment on the right rear of his car Hamilton and Musgrave complete their service they're back out to another round of green flag stops break sax is in relapse we'll be halfway Terry Labonte's on pit road Rick Hendrick owned Kellogg's cornflakes car here's Brandon Gary DeHart the guys waiting for Terry to hit his mark Mike's buck Mike finally will loosen the left-side lug nuts as Walter Smith Jack fell off machine on the right hand side left side look that's already done on the left front and the left rear waited it's for the jack to come around car goes up water bottle fires out of the car from Terry Labonte wiping the windshield gaps already in wow that was a great time as well Terry down it away team five these guys are something down here today Greg stop you see Earnhardt coming in the ditch as we speak there Mandie features crew is the right side of Earnhardt's Goodwrench Chevrolet in the air seven-time national champion and the current point leader Mike you see I'm really working on that windshield although the sun's not out all the way around the racetrack just parts for this racetrack where the Sun really bothered you so cleaning that windchill they do as much of that as they do tires you see he worked on that windshield a whole stop 19 seconds for the Richard Childress own Chevrolet Mark Martin is your race leader Terry Labonte second at the time he pitted Geoff Bodine Morgan Shepherd and Brett Bodine the top five to put together the best father's day start with Craftsman tools this craftsman 61 piece mechanic's tool set with case or this three drawer rally box your choice just $49.99

brought to you by Pep Boys automotive Super Center so that's where all our banners end up Jeff Gordon has just picked up the $10,000 of owners for leading the half way lap and so then will make his pit stop ten thousand dollars richer after the 300 grand he wanted the Winston select like he needs $10,000 Glen Jarrod's waiting on his fifth well Mike lucky said they didn't wait to collect that money and you could always use an extra team though don't be fooled by that he asked he told Ray Evernham that the test before he came in it was tightened up a little bit right told me she was not he felt like any tires would tighten it up enough to satisfy Jeff there but he said no way were they going to touch it right now the best thing had it all day good work so fun to pitch the right side already done Jeff brought it down the way seventeen and a half seconds great pit stop Jeff Bodine and Morgan Shepherd running second and third are also on pit road here's a good rear mid race report brought to you by Goodyear number one entire eight different leaders 14 lead changes average speed record pace hundred forty seven point six only one caution flag for three laps that came out at lap four Kenny Schrader Jeff Gordon look at how the Hendrick engines have led today they led what 80% of the laps so far Bobby Hamilton and Sterling Marlin make that 70% of the laps so far today at Strickland Geoff Bodine Bobby the body of Morgan Shepherd he's also has a shot at the lead out of the race Darrell Waltrip and Joe Nemechek and the Jimmy Spencer car also behind the wall Dale Jarrett's car back out after lengthy repairs we'll be right back to Pocono after this except relate we're not just out here winning we're testing suspensions developing more powerful engines and learning more about aerodynamics because if you want to bring more race winning technology to the street than any other car company sometimes you have to work weekends that's genuine Chevrolet [Music] it's 31 races and you've got to believe you're gonna win them all not one not two but every single one so you better make sure you've got the best crew the best car and the best tire Goodyear Eagles made by people who want to win just as badly as you do good here number one in racing number one in tires I've won seven nascar championship of goodyear that I'll tell you something news car drivers say there's no track in the world that's tougher on breaks that the one in Martinsville Virginia so when they 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 through the turn so which brand do NASCAR drivers use to get them through 500 laps at Martinsville performance friction carbon metallic and we stock up at honors on steak steak is lovely give me a keyboard with a fillet on the side for dessert I got a break out the a wine pour it all over the stank

in the end Ricky Rudd flavouring spin cycle launder turn gay Ricky his first win as a it's a Winston Cup slick 5,300 July night 1 p.m. noon central on TNN Motorsports it's gonna be a wide-open paint swapping war the back to Pocono my Troy with Buddy Baker and Ernie Irvan Sharon Randy Kemper to bring you tienen live coverage you're Nashville you need to visit Opryland USA the official destination of NASCAR more information call Monday through Friday six one five eight eight nine six six one one you know sometimes we kind of forget what's happening on the racetrack but only a pretty good race up front I just noticed it too huh Strickland is like four or five car lengths back from the leader and look at this punch right here now this is a fight for what second third fourth fifth and quick third on back Terry Labonte Rusty Wallace Sterling Marlin Rick mast is in there but he's a lap down and our Fartman just takes the spot away from Bobby Hamilton that sixth place probably rolled out the gas they're good for a second what he won't do is get back to the bottom of a shot and get back in the bottle as fast we could and run along they were mark down the back straightaway and I think that's an interesting point about this racetrack unlike many super speedways where you can race all the way around side-by-side it seems here again more like a road race track if somebody has the preferred line on you going into the corner it seems to work better if that driver will just drop back and tuck in and chase them off the corner Mike it coming off the corner here is the race not again you need to get in good but I mean the faster you can get back in the throttle and make that fade away long with getting back in the throttle quick or that means everything on the straightaway Terry the body trying to gain a little distance there on the rest of that draft you can see the hood tear down that straightaway these cars running close to 200 miles long front straight away you can see the aerodynamic fabric the hoods and all they just flapping in the breeze there and it only does that when you get the high seats right kiddin me check in on a situation developing with the Bobby Labonte car last week second place finisher has now gone two laps down Glenn yeah Mike he's got a real problem he only has high gear and you know how tough that is to take off here because it's a little bit taller gear ratio you have to run and run down this long straightaway spoke oddly enough that cause they're making claw had the same problem here last year he ran and he lost high gear so it isn't Jericho transmission normally those things really reliable but only high gear for Bobby Labonte that's why I hit so much trouble taking off it just gives you all kinds of problems on green flag stops and even on restarts under caution you know you have to get a running start on him so he's got a long day ahead of him for the rest of the afternoon well I tell you once a Bobby Hamilton but he had to move pretty quick just then he moves right across confirm the Sterling Marlin that's kind of a dangerous move it right pitch battle here for third place I'm back behind Jeff Gordon anthem at Strickland 107 laps complete we'll be right back with you live on TNN split fire won a United States Patent it's clearly different but is it really better some of the toughest judges in the nation conducted trials and published their verdicts five extra horsepower by merely installing these plugs a 4.8% gain and mileage quicker in the quarter mile there's nothing like a split pipe you'll get more power and more mileage guarantees you'll get it all for your money back imagine satellite system the perceived transmission 2,000 miles in space imagine every time digital signals into vivid pictures and CD quality sound how big would it be all about 18 inches the RCA digital satellite system can customize programming in the power of digital technology and a little convenient take home size today's exclusive coverage of the UAW GM teamwork 500 on TNN is brought to you by RCA changing entertainment again welcome back to Pocono Jeff Gordon out in front of this field Hut Stricklin runs in second third place very tight battle gordon has led 59 of the 108 laps so far that's more than half of this race my cut was gaining on Jeff Gordon there just a second goes in each often back it's all on the move right now Terry Labonte and third place he is moving right up behind the 26 car Hut Stricklin the odds are against Jeff Gordon winning this race in the June race at Pocono 13 years and only three times has the driver leading at halfway gone to Victory Lane Ernie we talked about this a while ago you never let that stand in the way when they're 10 down out with you know I think Jeff Gordon's are gonna do whatever he can do to win this way that's obviously what he's doing that when it started the race so odds don't really matter right now there may be less odds later but it could be four of them there right one the way here's a look back to the second-place car you think the statistical odds were against Jeff Gordon no Winston Cup driver has ever scored his first career victory at Pocono in 35 races you've ever won their first one here I can tell you one thing this is a hard race track to get around and you have to have experience to run well here you see all the jobs right now that are upset the people that no haven't set the cars though these say this goat is the odds like setters really a good domain a thing a checkered flag don't make a difference yeah that's true it ended you know now that we're talking to maybe here's a new Parliament washing is out coming up debris on the racetrack oh and the tunnel turn I could see it 111 laps we have only the second caution of the day it comes out on lap 112 they finally get the work on these cars and yeah all these policy moves on it that they need to do to make them really fast who did not need two cautions like please raise your hand no hands okay I tell you about this this crowd hasn't sat down all day why do you forget a seat why buy a seat don't ever stand up on ya they ought to do this the grandstands and not have seats here I mean you know everybody's standing up watching their ways and now we got a costume there's going to be some pit stops and it's getting excited it is exciting before you know we're looking at the new polymer for the 26 car you mean buddy you mean buddy let's talk about the we have a truck that it's the pace truck and they pick you up right on this short shoot right now and you see him just in front there that's picking them up coming towards the front straightaway pace truck Elmo Langley driving that GMC Jimmy Jimmy now you tell mo gonna give Jeff Gordon a pack of ice apparently he's running a little hot in Ronnie's car he normally gets that quite a bit he used the gates time down a shirt and the part you don't just gets a really slim guy he did that much fat people drivers on the lead lap are entitled to pit under this first lap of caution there are the first three on the left side of the screen I think we just explained why I never got anything all right we got some great stops going on right now that three is the best of the business right now with Jeff Gordon for 26 car with Hut Stricklin and Terry Labonte with the five which area were the first one to move jump or depth or dad down pit road I mean basically all those guys had just about the same same amount of time on the stop 19 cars like that 18 cars are posted on the lead lap at the moment we're under just a second caution of the day and we'll be right back with you live you're on CNN this is the Texaco Havoline stock car and this is the Texaco Havoline Indy car and while these cars run on special pillows we figured it was still a good way to remind you that Texaco clean system three gasoline's give your car unsurpassed performance and Texaco Havoline formula

shopping club home to the greatest names in electronics Pocono caution flag pit stops continue here's our fearless innovation in racing brought to you by peerless faucet get more out of your faucet than just water hi I'm the West not a team manager my name is Clyde booth I'd like to take some time to show you how we line the reruns up in these Winston Cup cars at one point in time we used to have this string resting on the side wall and then from the string we'd wanted the frame rail and make sure the room was straight in the car that was not very accurate now we have a new tool it's extremely accurate that enables us to put the springs on these machine pads we run it down the race car go into the frame rails and get through a run straight because whichever way the rear end is heading that's which way the race car is gonna go down the racetrack thanks Clyde we're getting set for the restart Jeff Gordon continues to lead Hut Stricklin Terry Labonte and Mark Martin can get a word with the driver of the family channel for the tips and fifth and Winston Cup point standings Ernie Irvan has the mic Ted Musgraves on the horn and then we're gonna have to comment like 184 that's our total average see how teddy this is uh Ernie Irvan up in the booth you got a copy how you doing up there all right then we've just been talking about you your car's looking really good today how's it handling okay well you really put us a good show on but we're gonna have to get you up front and get ahead of that 24 car right Ernie that would be awful tough but I think we could do it is the raincoat on we're getting a little better as original not okay I just wanted to tell you that no Winston Cup driver has ever won his first race here at on at Pocono so maybe you could do that for us today Ted Musgrave and thanks to Racing electronics for providing the in-car communication you have with several of the drivers today I'm gonna call the 800 line fan wanted to know if his scanner would work at home while he was watching our telecast no but if you're gonna scan the race teams like we're doing here you have to be here in the grandstand because those transmitters won't reach your house Randy well just a couple updates I went down talk to Robin Pemberton I'm a two-team I said did you make any changes there under caution that you would have liked to make but couldn't catch a car she said we need to change the right front spring and we're not gonna be able to do that so that's about as good as they can get rusty at least for now a lot of the guys are saying they're chasing the weather because the Sun Keyes keeps popping in and popping out far sterling Marling goes they raised the spoiler up put around a wedge in the left rear pulled out the left front fender around a wedge in for the 26 run plan well I mean I'm in Dale Earnhardt's pitch and they came in a second time his car's been awfully loosening he likes them loose but it's too loose for him Richard Tudor said that they put rubbers just about everywhere that they could try to tighten the car up for Dale hopefully they'll get the car back toward the front thanks Len were set to go back to green here we will mention it if you are at the racetrack you can scan our tienen broadcast in addition to me through the race teams on the outside there's Jeff Gordon just behind him in green as Hut Stricklin then Terry Labonte is a cereal box and then the oil can of Martin Martin and Bobby Hamilton Ted Musgrave those are the cars on the lead lap you're looking at in the outside lane they won't be there for long whoa we're under green Jeff Gordon's they played a move down again tapes go on down the front straightaway there I don't think intimidating a bit but you see Jericho get in there trying to get that back back and forth up high Derek Kolb is one lap down and Hut Stricklin is going to take the lead Hut Stricklin to the front Wayman Strickland junior out of cólera Alabama puts Kenny Bernstein straighteners baseboard in the wind and into the lead now Ricky Craven and Derek hope are ahead of him they're trying to get back on the lead lap or Strickland made the right move in traffic now wouldn't be the time lately all for beginning with it I was just thinking that the price probably is going up every day we got a great 24 car he stops off the face quite a bit you been running about 8:00 from Atlanta he got in right here [Applause] 115 laps and here is Strickland putting Garrett cult in the mane and tail shampoo for two Bobby Allison backing one lap down again he has the preferred line and turn one he's working on putting back at lap but right now oh boy does he haven't cleared that's all for tight coming off turn two there Donna Mike Wallace makes a pit stop after just the second caution flag of the day on lap 116 Hut Stricklin drove for Bobby Allison and finished fourth here in 1991 he's trying to become the first Winston Cup driver to ever score win on this racetrack intelligent all intelligent traveler right now a I'm going pretty good there I tell you how seconds got a lot between two people what a race car driver you want a water differently he went unemployed delete hooray that's pretty neat from a starter stand that look only hat only happens in America you know what I mean Todd what I'm battling Ricky Craven that's for position wanting a spot through factory stores Florida butch Mach getting underneath Craven and they're right in and amongst the leaders Jeff Gordon's in a lot of lap over traffic right now and he has to be very patient makes mistake he's got a fast car as you can see move up on them pretty quick but they don't want to get yourself caught in the wreck [Applause] Bobby Hamilton leading Ted Musgraves and Rusty Wallace in that group Pontiac into Ford's Terry Labonte Chevrolet and the board of restruck providing with Mark Martin [Music] Earnie that rearview mirror they used to run the four or five panel mirror this little different thing now you know the name kind of what were I'm back it's a little bit different than what it actually dude mark can actually see almost out the right side of his car out the right side women plus he can see almost at the left side women tom petty's off the pace there it looks like he may have lost an engine that was our last week's good or to thank you two in a row for Kyle that may bring now the costume he'll have to really worry whether he can get back into the pits or not because he coasted down the back straightaway and it's a long ways around the face track back for a bit stay on the green for the moment there are a couple of places around the backside of the racetrack where a driver can turn into the infield out of harm's way and to keep us most of them are evident when you turn in it brings you to the world in face of all the fans can be right there in the middle of what in fact we're going to get a good shot of what maybe happened to Kyle and then upper right corner of your screen way up in the upper right heart is it flamed and everything so that blew up here at the start/finish line so I don't think he's gonna make it back he's still talking out there and as you did and I can turn out his arm feel right there that's where the pace truck parks that's also the entrance to the infield Road course here well that's a sharp right turn where you come from high speed down to stop and turn left great pass old Todd bow down really loose in front of Strickland there get across the tunnel turn Todd were times one that is running really good I'm he just about on got a lap down earlier but you know he's still I guess he's one lap down but he's running one competitor and we got Bobby Hillin and right there and I think he is a lot to you right there battling for 20th spot as Hut Stricklin just to lap them past we are 120 laps complete 300 miles down here at koknal we'll be right back coast to coast from small communities to urban America by

on the bottom and out of advantage and took it Musgrave comes back down as straighter goes past they were trying to lap past Derek Colt this Musgrave rolled out of the throttle everybody else had time to go he won't want to talk to you anymore minded they may not supposed to win this thing first race here at Pocono I think what what I did was welcome up he's trying to go towards Willie he's ahead of Jeff Gordon Bobby Hamilton there 43 car on the outside ricky rudd beginning the rumble a little bit but we haven't really talked about Ricky Rudd all day and then he's one of the better guys that run this race for him there's brought in the pi/4 Hamilton for a top ten spot in Sterling Marlin back up there behind Morgan Shepherd let's go to Kyle Petty's pit here's Randy well buried Austin's got his guys packing up all the stuff Barry I guess you let one go here today but had a heck of a run last week and you weren't bad today at all now we had a good run Randy we elected to come in on cars will be loose and we worked our way back up the 24 car there was a good day for you know voter fraud if it weren't running good it'd be different better cause life on the eggs runnin really good and one of those days we'll take it after last week I guess now you're in another race we heard you say pack them up let's beat some of this traffic you got it man let's get out of here [Laughter] Barry Dodson crew chief or Kyle Petty Jeff Gordon has been trying to lap pass Todd Bodine this time drives it in deep and gets past Bodine going over the tunnel it turn - you can see why Jeff Gordon runs well after about eight or ten laps he has his first hit ups in the long run right at first I don't think he is loose enough to really get off the corners here I think so I may have a little push and then it comes to go later ten laps to see him moving up behind up Strickland really gaining on him now where Strickland the race leader hears board in the second place car average speed at record pace carry the body down to the inside trying to haul his rick hendrick teammate Kenny Schrader's with him Robert Pressley that was three wide into that cause I got a lot of phone well out there Katie's

that spotter see all the way over there the only way that the kid is a bigger tree by the TV in it it's hard for a spotter to to come and say clear this day watching it because we're sitting here in the booth right now looking at those cars along was win this race that was real hard to judge the distance there's the average speed just a little bit off the record case after that last pit stop that record was set by Alan Kulwicki in 1992 at 144 miles an hour if Loki is final Earnie a lot of questions on the 800-number about when you're going to get back behind the wheel you had a test this week

[Music] the Miller Ginny act Rusty Wallace car [Music] welcome back to Pocono International Raceway in the teamwork 500 Jeff Gordon is back in the lead here's what happened while we were in great EF lining him up ferry just moves to the inside just off the angle getting in the flat corner up here makes a pass for the easier he actually made it before he got to the corner I tell you that's moving right along down that short few player to be able to do that it almost looked like up there yet got just ticklish get in there Gordon doctor you go really good there Schrader and Brenda college from New York wants to know if we'd ever have hair again as a guest commentator and does he come out races anymore here he's assigned a bunch of autographs yesterday on computer trick arrogant can do anything he wants to thing and do it she did say winner and he returns to racing not like we're gonna spend Ernie out come here Camie freighters begin and really turn up to wake on his car to he's gotten by terry labonte since some of the ill problems he had before he get resist on that car he fish so he's really moving well now Mark Martin running in third there's a Morgan Shepherd Ricky Rudd moving in on Rusty Wallace and this is great place Morgan spins very fast and very working his way up and you can see the cars running flight well down regular [Applause] Morgan Shepherd came in here 11th in the point standings and over the past three season Morgan's hardly ever been out of the top ten so they're 34 points back up 10th place right now Kenny Schrader and Terry Labonte Rick Hendricks cars are 1st 4th and 5th straighter is 4th Fulani is fifth with Jeff Gordon leading all three of those cars on the top five and here's Robert Pressley slowing yeah we had a report that he was smoking about a lap ago and coasting around trying to get back to the inside of the racetrack and upfront Hut Stricklin has caught jeff gordon once again the hut hasn't given up and he's gonna keep the pressure a gentle let's previous best finished career-wise the second I believe at Michigan Mike fielding nods yes Mark Martin have moved into our picture frame there you see there the number 6 I think yeah that's a dangerous move and you see him moving up like that he can make you thing take on a little over Kenny yeah and I think get getting through turn one mark I mean it was just like the perfect people are in it he's obviously got his car handle and then Mark Martin was second going into the Winston Cup points last week with that crash at Dover on the third lap drop marks a fourth in the point standings right now he's third in this race and the point leader Earnhardt is 15th third the last car that is still on the lead lap here 132 laps complete let's go down to Hut Stricklin spit here's Randy well normally we would be down here talking to Richard broom the crew chief on this far but Richard spots for this team on race day John dick is the chief wrench down here right now johnny arabia that you've been a little bit loose first of all can you correct that for a huh get the looseness out of the car and can you do anything with it 24 well I think we can fix it we can certainly make it better anyway I don't know the 24th got a pretty strong car but say you have to make us some magic out there taking the lead he's trying right now yeah he's driving and he's got it power moved there was Dave market right on the inside now look at Gordon try to loosen up that board they both have the same problem when a car gets up under and they get loose football for a mark heart moves in right the flow breaks axis fun and leave hit the wall before he came here the caution is not out yet but it will be shortly I have a feeling leaders do not get the caution flag we are green for at least one more lap 133 complete brakes axe car was off in the infield grass after the tunnel turn Mark Martin while we were talking and moved into second and got his site settled Jeff Burton coming out with her until his thing the 40 car their bread faxes stopped their yellow right now and the tax went on to turn one rather so they will come around to the caution flag touch Strickland's crew chief was probably thinking of then we told him that he had to leave and he come by and bird sax gets restarted I'll show you what happened a great sack might have just rushed the wall there is fun perhaps Mike instead of flat left rear you see a clapping under the wheel well they're at the gun to stop the left we're glad he father grew higher coming out of Jeff Gordon leads the run back to the caution flag Mark Martin Hut Stricklin Kenny Schrader Terry Labonte Ted Musgrave then Sterling Marlin and Ricky Rudd as caution is out at lap 135 for the third time today tossed actually on 136 lat well this will proudly bring around to pit stops I would have to say that all the leaders and all the lap cars are definitely fit they can't make it to the end of the race but it's definitely going to be one of the deals let's show you how Mark Martin got past Hut Stricklin okay 26 right there he gets a little bit loose Jeff Gordon goes to the inside and he's cutting this edge off here and I'm sure the spotters saying here comes mark on the bottom side Strickland tries to go in on the outside that's no dice up there you can see the car get a little bit sideways mark sticks it in the corner under E as we get ready for pit stops we've had a number of questions about lug nuts and sockets sometimes they'd have a lug nut hang in the socket if they pretty well got that figured out and cured so that when you take those lugs off or when you tighten them up with those high speed air guns the lug nut can't get caught well no I don't think everybody's got it cured totally but I think that they've made some different changes and different deals with the socket good stop to the three that we can actually watch here the cars that on the lead lap that can pit on this left Jeff fort Mark Martin Strickland Schrader Terry Labonte Musgrave Marlin Rudd Shepherd Geoff Bodine Rusty Wallace Hamilton Brett Bodine Elliott Michael Waltrip Nemechek and Earnhardt all those cars are on the lead lap they're making them to just ignore that 26 car tighten it up just a little bit Ernie yeah it sure looks like they did they didn't Martin looks like he's probably in second and Hut Stricklin right with him so the lead lap cars have made their stops everybody else will be in next time around we're under caution for the third time today the national networks live

race here in the UAW Tem teamwork 500 at Pocono here's today's autozone tech pack brought to you by the more than 1,000 autozone stores across America autozone best parts in Auto Parts here's Larry McReynolds if you check the history of the races here run at Pocono it seems like fuel mileage has always played an issue in the outcome of the event teams and engine builders really work hard on getting the most fuel mileage that they can out of their racing engines that way hopefully they can run longer than the other competitors another issue that teams have really worked hard on is the fuel pickup even though NASCAR mandates the size of the fuel cell that it has to hold 22 gallons teams want to make sure they pick up every ounce of that 22 gallons a lot of little pieces has been made to make sure they do that for example this little pickup goes right here in the right rear back corner and that way hopefully it will pick up every ounce of the fuel and will let a team run further than its competitors thanks Larry there's Jimmy Cox with what we called a lollipop that stop-and-go sign at the end of pit road but the drivers know whether or not they can get out ahead of the pace car or not we'll be right back now at Pep Boys get any four of our 35 thousand mile all season steel-belted tires at an incredible low $109 that's right any 75 or 80 series any for just at

stadium it's Ford Buddy Baker driving tip is brought to you by Ford and your Ford dealer have you driven a Ford lately we learned how to fix the car this pushing in the corner this week let's fix a loose car a loose condition in a racecar something that has to be fixed the drivers get very uncomfortable with this situation take this in the piss my brother and me so I'll tell you what we do for a quick fix thanks buddy on a fast the most effective ways that you can cure this condition is to take a ratchet you make an adjustment on this corner the car it adds weight to this spring by screwing down on it another quick fixing to come around and bump the score up what this does it increases the down pressure on the back of the car and this will also take away your loose condition we're ready to go back to green 137 laps complete Jeff Gordon is the race leader Mark Martin's right there with him Hut Stricklin and Terry Labonte or the restart green flag is in the air mark Barton did not get a good restart horrible start I don't know what he meant severe one what do you think Arnie I think really I've been watching this and during the first part Mark Martin didn't have a very good start to I think it's a gear ratio that he's got this transmission it doesn't have a very low enough second gear you've lost a couple of spots in the process there is Gordon the race leader then Derek hope and Jeff Burton each lap down as his Mike Wallace admires Ford and a touch Strickland and Terry Labonte in a big gap and Martin looses a little more ground getting into the tunnel turn outside outside again blast on by [Music] with ken schrader jeff gordon leakin across he's got a big advantage with three lapped cars including Dick Trickle separating him from second place Hut Stricklin now Stricklen right behind him is tearing the body of the third place car and then Ted Musgrave you can see those cars when they come up out of that corner they really bounce quite a bit they think about of this communicate sense we go to and you can really see that down the front straight on - it's been a long time it's been paved and the winners aren't real real good here so the racetracks get rougher and here we got Hut Stricklin gonna gonna get underneath that Dick Trickle and gonna go back under the 8 car - Mikey - see then how soft these cars are from when Strickland turned his car to the end fat there but actually both the rear wheels lose momentarily because of a light spring kind of lifted all the weight off the referee or the full run wheel and when we basically have Springs and the cars that just about run it whoops bro now we're seeing that Mark Martin is having some trouble it wasn't just the gearbox and maybe it's something else maybe guys lay down they haven't really said nothing on the radio never came back up the pool after that restart but they continue to work traffic Len Jarrett in his field right he's talking to mark right now I asked these people what seems to be the problem do you know hard to say we you all know about much as we do it looks like we're getting beat up the straightaway like a dropped a cylinder or suffer clutches slip and maybe won't go in high gear you know we change gears here at Pocono if anybody hits right now like he says the right he still does not have communication with mark earlier he told me that he just took him a few laps to get going but now they got a much more serious problem that's a real shame because they have gotten the car in real good shape he's about as quick as anybody Donald Batman Forever car you know you never liked to stand up here and speculate what the problem is but right now he's running just as well if Lau they've down the straightaway here's what happened to mark the first indication of that car not running all that well after the restart look at mark ooh whoa he guessed about that tank there Morgan Shepherd was coming full head of steam on the outside Sterling Marlin there yeah there's definitely something wrong there you can see that he was one of the fastest cars before the stop it now he really don't have to straightaway speed the a3 mark will down off the pace is Dale Earnhardt moves to the inside of Craven haven't seen much of Earnhardt today for ricky rudd battles with Bobby Hamilton they were side by side 3y the last time they came past the strife ear they're fighting for 12th place right now there's Musgrave and Kenny Schrader's Heath and Ward Burton battling Jeremy Mayfield and now Bowdoin pulls up on Ricky Rudd as Hamilton goes up front after Joe Nemechek michael waltrip and jeremy mayfield michael waltrip there and he's still in the same left as the leaders and you can see he has a lot of straightaway speed in that car it goes down into turn two here one of the things michael waltrip isn't shipped in today he's on running fourth gear the whole time that's one of the things I found out in the Roger as history as is Sterling Marlin as we mentioned earlier Danny Schrader Budweiser 25 started here on the pole Ted Musgrave family channel 16 and the Miller Genuine Draft member to you all Jeff Gordon fourth fifth and sixth place at Strickland second place car in Quaker State Greene and Terry Labonte in third right behind me then there's the battle for fourth graders really hanging it out right now he's passed must raise now and if there's a warrior award today he has to have it because he had battle back drop them way back in the field for three how about this the two drivers who led the points one week ago are today the last cars on the lead lap thanks Jen greater time to make a move on trickle on the bottom side and I think that's gonna work back now muskeg moves in and we'll make it this plays I don't care how big Victoria get makes the back a little bit [Applause] get back to that fourth place back critters car really has a motive and I think every time he keeps my dear for it shows when I get that oh nice try to go there you became : power one car left to the car left by the end of that straightaway there now Ted Musgraves got to go to work on the but more pull out he careened over fifteen Dick Trickle if he's going to keep tabs on Schrader there this group of cars is a bit back of the leader with some lap cars in between now Musgrave got to make that move or he's gonna lose touch with Schrader he has to do that here comes Rusty Wallace - that must very spotty listening to whatever rusty problem was a while ago he seems to have herself early pack up there where doubts and equals an animal Chevrolet day so far second-place race put it under Hut Stricklin there at that time this one really get down in that corner good and terry labonte not a dad was gonna force the issue here he'll eat you up but he'll do it

wants to know if Rusty's first name is really rusty well it's Russell his father is also Russell the dad goes by Russ and drove by rusty rest now Mark Martin we reported thought they might have an alternator problem Glenn is that the case well evidently so Mike because they have brought a fresh battery down here now obviously if the alternator is not working is not charging the battery and the car begins to lose power so it's the first opportunity that are going to put see if that won't help but that won't solve the problem good at least about the alternator's we just try to keep the first battery energy he is 15 seconds behind the leader to see more he shifted fourth to third there's Kenny Schrader and Ted Musgraves Musgraves really had to work lap traffic and all to stay right with Schrader to battle for fourth place the impressive part of Musgraves wave running you think he dropped about 20 car lengths back just lap back now he's run right back up on the back of Crater he's got a lot going for him nothing for 12th place Bill Elliott and Dale Earnhardt battling for 12th place Earnhardt the Winston Cup point leader has spent much of the day hanging around the tail end of the lead lap and Rusty Wallace almost got past the kid Musgrave one's gonna try it Morgan Shepherd moving to the inside they're trying to take the spot away you say rusty put his hand out later let him go give give and take you have been taken of the night time when you corner if you know he knows you don't take it okay observant viewer Rick from California sees little green stickers up on the windshield last week was orange how come I think that's a the sticker scent is when you go through tech on the product right in them they may change them in tomten are the windshield there that little sticker means you have passed inspection for this weekend inspector signs it off not for the weekend out for the decks meghna you're right there you're right because everybody goes through tech inspection right before there is the light control tech inspection well control qualifying to so they also go through a tech infection when they first get here before practice before qualifying and before the race reset for time and after they usually tear down the run easy to attend some somewhat a teardown for the top five forest go check the body heights and ten books and make sure that you don't go through templates and then change it from another way positively correct maybe that sticker stock better than she see Wallace's car Ricky Rudd has dropped back to the tail end of the lead lap and they are also reporting potential alternator problems on Ricky Rudd's car I don't know if it's the magnetic fields here in the Poconos or the weather or just what happens but it's something 47

started up [Music] just to make a guess like he had to do here well it didn't look like a seat up for a lot of these guys except for huh okay like you said he was one of those guys a place where they're taking it to stride Mike he said he could make it worse but he couldn't make it any better well that's a bad situation I like it when he said he was one of the guys to call yeah operators are standing by Morgan Shepherd trying to take the fifth by the way I'm coming off one of the side by side down the front straightaway a lot of room between them and everybody line up with Strickland once he's gonna go with Morgan shuffle we will take the position what are these ultimately they they're gonna make the path he's trying to figure out hey go make it during that fifth up before you adjust on this dark Sterling Marlin just brought a Strickland had a number of comments on the 800 line about why Sterling Marlin didn't get penalized for that collision detent Dale Jarrett into the wall and car fishing the same replay as you did just it was a racing accident did not excuse to assess any penalty that is their call 41 laps to go Jeff Gordon leading is Hendrick teammates Terry Labonte and Ken Schrader with Ted Musgrave in fourth Hut Stricklin there at Morgan Shepherd affair you know working at autozone is more than just looking up arts or ringing up sales most of all is listening

entertainment again welcome back to CNN live coverage from the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania battle for third at Musgrave has caught Kenny Schrader Ted Musgrave in the past couple of weeks has shown me a lot of maturity and he works on his car during the race look hey he gets in the corner here he's gaining on freight or really fast getting in the corner he took tup he'll make the pass on him before too long his team manager Howard Comstock all the nice guys in the garage area and a bunch of hard workers on that Jack Roush team they have caught straighter Musgrave is in fourth place the highest placed forward in the race right now about to be third perhaps top five in point he's doing quite well this year and you may move ahead of his teammate Mark Martin in the fourth in the point standings as they run right now Schrader doesn't want to give up that third spot down in turn one does he oh it's gone it's just a matter of time here when he gets back to the throttle right here build on professor Baker for the buck Baker driving school telling you that well don't take long we figured oh he's off the pace there in the 16 car he pulled way over to the left-hand side he just went in to try to break the crap come on man just for a moment there I'm gonna go hard left the whole state of Wisconsin but he just had heart failure well later die it's okay and car cameras I was watching that night then you pull it way over after that I used to do that a whole run together [Music] well I don't know if I remember I mean they had TV in Modesto yeah they gave you there and the towers yes sir I'll answer that for you ask me you I wouldn't say you soak mm I think you soaked in the water right a lot of people would ask why do you move around on the racetrack trying to break the draft well he feels that he's much quicker down straight away without waiters help so he's trying to get rid of him right now maybe as our pusher problem when he's right up behind him or at least problem he wants to shake him off there so he's everything he has and that far to try to catch up traitor started today's race on the pole he has led a couple of times here right now around Ian for behind to Jeff Gordon terry labonte and now Ted Musgrave thirty eight laps to go come back and enjoy the last round of pit stops here in just a bit so let's take this pause from the Poconos we'll

a single best way to meet someone special tune into TPN nightly from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. on cable channel 19 welcome back to the Poconos here where the leader Jeff Gordon has just made what is hoped to be his last three flag pit stop and it was not a good one they had trouble on the left rear of the car it was we've got it time to 20.8 I think that might be a little faster the truth little upset details right now that trouble on the left rear but he is down in a way again as I said should be his last stop it could go green the rest of the way thanks Len Terri the body betta watch it roll does not take the lead Ted Musgraves does Wisconsin driver Elmer is a star behind the wheel Jack Roush has Lynda Bird the Family Channel car leads Kenny Schrader's there's the advantage it's about three or four car lengths a lot of questions on the 800 line at the 15 car cam review come back about sometimes you'll see wires hanging down that don't connect to anything those are the tethers like that for the roof flaps on the car and so when the car turns around back to the wind as you watch the battle side by side between Gordon and Labonte those allow the roof flaps to come up but only so far and then drop back down once again it looks like they're not connected to anything but they're doing their job properly Michael Waltrip and Brett Bodine make a pit stop as does Rick mast last round of green flag stops underway and here comes Ted Musgrave in leader is in his final time of the day as he is Kenny Schrader right with him let's go to Randy Howard Comstock waits for tech Musgrave boom he hits it tires already going on Ted with maybe his best run he had one going last week at Dover we said that was his best run but I think this might be a great run here at Pocono around to the left side 16 car goes up on the left side tires gonna no problems no chassis adjustment he's down the way an excellent stop for Musgrave Steve I stopped for Ted Musgraves crew I remember last week many people thought Musgrave would have won the race but they had a bad stop on their final pit stop and he got back out third so once again Morgan Shepherd assumes command of this race in the souq cohort won't get a caution right now he'd be in the catbird seat if that's not going to happen I don't like it we faked it looks like he's coming off pit road right now Morgan Shepherd is in well the Leonard Glen wood team wait for Morgan boom he comes in no not a problem here he doesn't even get a slide to the stop he comes in nice and smooth go to work on the windshield get it nice and clean from Oregon second can of gas already in lug nuts are left already loose on left side time to wait a little while for the jet paint get the jack onto the left side of the car finally get hit 21 6 not quite what they wanted Hut Stricklin is pitted well further down pit road and gets out before Sheppard there you see the difference two or three seconds can make on pit road when you make a pit-stop like it you say 21 seconds supposed to 18 seconds if you put that on the racetrack we're talking 200 yards to be a walking distance you're also talking thousands of dollars if that's how it ends up at the end of the day here are your leaders terry labonte behind Jeff Gordon Jeff scarves a little quicker on fresh tires I think Terry Labonte farm may be just too good after about 10 to 15 laughter are very secure in corners you know we keep commenting on the halo cake and I also have comment that those cars are built by Rick Hendrick's in shock so not just the bodies and that sort of stuff but also the frames and everything you know most people get the cars were not walking in some other places but those guys build their own chassis engineering acknowledged the Charlotte Motor Speedway and satellite locations around the area you know Mike looking to his 24 car go around the racetrack here with Jeff Gordon it looks almost flat your factory you could put raking card thinking that given a great staple debility on the back but now they found out if they can get this weight distributed from the cuffs of the rear and really packet car down much better having everything he enough me to say or any kind of such excitement yeah I dunno why did I do that yes you did I was watching the monitor as Kenny Schrader and Rusty Wallace battle Lakes being just made a pit stop and Chevy versus match up here [Applause] to be for fourth place this racetrack was designed to emulate three different speed ways for IndyCar race turn one resembles Michigan to speed banking turn to Indianapolis with only eight Milwaukee nearly flattened each straightaways different lengths each turn has a different radius and a different banking this means that you will have one corner where you're better than maybe the next corner part of the race back beer in a you don't worry that one until you kind of bow through there in the pit stop time they've Jeff Burton's those the Raybestos Hut Stricklin again had the best pitstop and that way all day yeah Lokar Schrader and Wallace continue their battle for fourth place then there's Jeff knows about the turnoff over there he stays on the racetrack gotta bring a yellow out sure first 500-mile race held here was an IndyCar race 1971 Mark Donohue wanted [Applause] roll past Jeff Burton's car if we make the turn in on to the road course there hockey's in tomato they call Devil's elbow whatever was wrong with Rusty Wallace an early Barbara Lahey is flying right now they make an adjustment apparently one bikini freighter down the front straightaway side by side coming past our attention on E identified a card turned in through the tunnel you know he's still out on the racetrack Dorian stop and the interests of great eating just pass them as when Kenny's done the pace car speed the pace truck rolls out they're looking right now long before the car did more caution of the day that's why it's not going to be happy with nothing no that's only things they say when the drivers really can't make it all the way around you pull into that deal so you don't cause the caution so evidently Burton thought he could make it all the way around 27 laps to go it makes us have a better way now we can well you can have now I know there are folks sitting home wearing their bow ties saying all what Chevrolet is leading to the Ford parked out on the racetrack the folks so busy worrying about your own race car I can't imagine you'd have time to figure all that out I hadn't figured out how that could happen but damn yeah I mean you know people could think that we don't expect that anybody Jeff Burton [Music] tremendous competitor and that he thought he could make it back to pit road untrue so we're under caution for the fourth time today leaders Jeff Gordon will stop as will Terry in the body Ted Musgrave his third Rusty Wallace his fourth its Chevy Chevy for we go to caution now two tires are for tires you have fuel to go the distance so you're not waiting for the fuel to be put in on this stop what do you do Mike it's same reason you make the big bucks up here those guys down there know what they're gonna do I'm not going to second-guess those guys they make the big bucks to make the change well it'll be choice time here in just a second there is a bit of a gamble to see what they'll do there are the two Chevy's and the top upper left the screen and the Fords right below I would say we may see some two tires tops but I don't think it's going to be from surprise me the bonding company halt Musgrave is already bidding his right side tires work on Jeff Gordon's car the question is what are they doing on the left side Labonte will take four Musgrave got two yeah there you go and he'll be first out Jeff Gordon is just now beginning to take off left ted musgrave which the - down pit road as Jack Roush gambled on two tires 175 laps down 25 to go here in the Pocono zone we'll be right back with tienen live coverage after this [Music] it doesn't matter if you're the best driver it doesn't matter if you've got the best car or the best crew or even the shiniest wheels on the track if you don't have good your Eagle tires fell you're just not gonna win the NASCAR championship Goodyear number one in racing number one in tires with that Goodyear you're not gonna win one of these believe me I know the other day I get in my car won't start no small problem I need the guy let's check your old one first it might not be the problem turns out he was right all I needed was a new battery cable talk about saving money are you telling me with another parts store done that they made sure I got exactly what I needed now I'll remember that believe me I will when cars raced at an awesome five miles per hour Mobil Oil was there when a race car broke a hundred Mobil was in it Mobil was in the winner of the first race across America and just last year Mobil one had the most first second and third place wins on the indie circuit we've been helping engines last for a long time well changing oil for over a hundred and twenty five years we made history on the American Road now we're looking to the future introducing the new Ford Explorer the top-selling compact sport utility that has standard dual airbags as well as the roomiest interior was the one with the highest quality of any American combat sport utility the new Ford Explorer far and away the best the world has to offer [Music] welcome back to Pocono as they line back up after caution Jeff Burton's cars and pushed back to pit road after coming to a halt between turns two and three twenty four laps to go you can cruise on the big red bottom and ask our family proof December four through seven benefiting the Winston Cup racing wives auxiliary someone's to come drivers and their families will participate for more information watch future TNN racing events look at the drivers who are still looking for that first win and closing in on it each one of these six have had top-five finishes this year still have found Victory Lane elusive Todd Bodine Steve Grissom Bobby Hamilton Ted Musgrave Hut Stricklin and Michael Waltrip you know we've seen Billy about there running along a while ago he's shown in third place right now that's really up there we might check I wonder people we got two tires on that last stop that's on two tires let's go down to Glen all right Everingham I know that you thought about it puts two on but you decided to go with four hopefully your last pit stop of the day everything okay with the car is he ready to go to the end it was a little tight on that set I hope it's gonna be hope it's gonna be okay you know we just have to say our prayers Terry looks pretty strong got a lot of traffic to come through but you know we've had a good day and I just hope we can finish on a good note well most Musgrave took on only two can you get back by I hope so you know Jeff's patient I hope we can get back by you know I said we're just gonna have to wait and see and once a high pop Hendrick he's back home still recuperating and at least our all of our cars are running good but I hope it's ours that brings home the trophy well good luck on his final run let's go down to the 16 bill well team manager Howard contacts dance on the wall Howard you got to leave but jelly have two fresh tires on there bunch of them got four I guess you think that's the right thing to do well who are the last ones to stop on that round of green flag though our tires had too few it's lap down we only had like four or five hard laps on them the left side tires aren't wearing out that wears been real good so track position is real important we got to take a chance without a pilot Ted Musgrave going after his first today today he might break the record to Pocono International Raceway has had and denying every NASCAR driver his first win here here are the cars on the lead lap as we get set for the restart there's Ted Musgrave your leader right behind him you see number 24 Jeff Gordon in third in Batman black as Bill Elliott number 94 then in fourth there's the Kellogg's carp Terry Labonte in fifth number two Rusty Wallace and

[Music] and what a breakthrough ricky-rock gets back on the lead lap first to the pack comes to the line [Music] Mike that's the reason you run your heart out from your lap down think like that happened here back in there again I'm not sure if Burton blew up or if that was just tire smoke from the spin buddy well he's already in trouble there you see the real cars lighten up like he had power there he's been in the rear wheels so it might have just been a spin-out yeah I saw the smoke first appears it was tire smoke Ward Burton lost it coming off the tunnel turn but he is running the

what they're saying so far but we're getting a little more information as we speak I believe he might have I got a little valve problem as well so maybe it's the valve maybe drop the valve guys when you miss it when you have to ship it like that yeah when you miss the shift it really goes up they probably turned 10,000 right then watch the right or left side of Jeff Gordon's car right there definitely miss Jeff it's kind of hard to do in the gen a give a call to Terry Labonte for not running right over top of him right now Terry Labonte were told he is being overcome by fumed I need some oxygen let's go to Randy you are exactly right he radios the food said guys I am not feeling well what passed an oxygen standard by after this rate they may have to give it to him in victory lane Terry Labonte's leading of it he feels better now yeah he's definitely a leading we'll really I'll help him feel very good he had more than yet let's give a call the kidney crater Fenton and second play move toward the front right now he is caught from the both Keithley town today now he's moving in Ontario Varner Jeff Gordon will not win his fourth race of the season today there are the leaders two Chevy's in a Ford Labonte Schrader and Ted Musgrave in the four of them the driver that will perhaps Schrader who's gone winless for the last hundred and twenty starts wants to pick up at unocal bonus money Musgrave who's never won but they've got to catch terry labonte then they gotta beat it six laps to go a five lap brother look at that Strickland making a move on the inside they made one look they're trying to give him their best crazy he's up to fourth place down sorry you really got it on the map he drivers you've each been the bridesmaid and will get a little big bouquet he's got a run on Hut Stricklin or actually okay but what will that do to those two Chevrolet's put some further out front that's for sure don't count head out though he's making a move right now he pushed out just a little bit most based kind of counters are moved there on the inside does he come in his flat corner towards front straight away fair I Musgrave holds imam jeff gordon falls to the Pocono jinx only three drivers had led this race at halfway and gone on to win he did not become the fourth loved Bobby for Carly / Kenny Schrader [Applause] Terry Labonte winner at Richmond n Schrader trying to complete the one to sweep for Rick Henry Terry Labonte started in 24th 5 now leading the race he would be the first guy to come [Music] just a handful of laps to go Musgrave third for Hut Stricklin Kenny Schrader has 80 4,600 extra reasons for wanting to win this race that said skins game bonus that keeps building $7,600 a race until somebody wins from the pole get down to it right now terry labonte could care less about that and i'll tell you right you'll feel great because they get that fresh air [Applause] but this is the Poconos own and I think strange things that we've seen happen here Terry looks like he's definitely better than Katie Riley now you only have two more laps left [Music] [Applause] the 4000 passive Bill Elliott for a fourth or fifth Berlin called his way back into contention now look at Michael Walter moves in behind Billy trying to take that spot away moves to the inside down the short chute didn't make her happen they'll scatter foot in it the top of the day look like Harlem Mike those think up the whole show he took off and built himself a big lead then the car went away and they've had to fight back and have done a good job doing so come by the camera but my way up here look like you're running pretty each shot beyond frustrated thankful around [Music] fifth six back there with that group Joe Elliott Michael Waltrip Raiders got more trouble than worrying abandoned women the rage right now he kept up the most race who's getting on the back of him there remember what long ago that teddy was a race against cut in the 25 car was actually pulling away Terry the body had this be ways best come-from-behind win it came in 1989 when he started 23rd Musgrave the second boy this is a replay last week he moved in with just a few laps to go he's flying through here and Michael Waltrip battling Morgan Shepherd and here comes urn are where did he come from white flag suddenly Earnhardt's car is ablaze with powers he sweeps past Michael Waltrip these Kerala Marlin moving overhead fickle get that corner they're taking that spot away the 16th or the 16 colors besides the four point which is too far to go in this amount of time you know you don't run the white flag lap right now would carry the body pretty bad guys definitely get hand oil Ford reaches for the checkered flag and a round turn number three will come Terry Labonte with Ted Musgrave trying to close in with Labonte looks to be poised to pick up his second win of the season and the 15th of his career single-file off turn three very close from third on back tipic terry labonte wins it 15th of his career Ted Musgrave second Schrader holds off sterling marlin and Hut Stricklin and we get in the hole 505 here in the body when he gets in leave that's one of the toughest
