Wallace took the lead on lap 90 during the caution period for the blown engine in Gordon’s car. He maintained the No. 1 position through lap 96 before relinquishing it to Dale Jarrett. The former Cup champion led through lap 103, before succumbing to rookie Gaughan in an on-track battle. It was the first time this season Gaughan had taken the lead under green-flag conditions. Gaughan led for 13 laps in his Jasper Engines and Transmission Dodge, through lap 116, when the yellow flag waved for a blown engine in Jamie McMurray’s Dodge. Gaughan lost the lead when all of the lead-lap cars pitted during the caution period. “It felt good to let ‘em know we’re really coming around,” Gaughan said after his 16th-place finish. “I’m used to running up front, and I need to get back to being used to that. “We gained five or six spots putting tires on with a few laps to go, so I’m happy.”
