And sports you must occasionally take chances to win in one year ago and Jeff both times came for the chance of winning the Daytona 500 but their efforts came up short how. How many laps short and stymied by an empty fuel tank of no problem. Braves traffic will not be a factor it's clear sailing as many cars and strives to drop it may Marlene. Again today the biggest prize in auto racing is on the line as motor racing network presents live coverage of the great American race at Daytona 500 and. The motor racing network presents NASCAR today. Sponsored by goodies headache powders and extra strength tablets. The official pain reliever of NASCAR. Good afternoon everyone from Daytona Beach, Florida today 42 drivers will go after more than one and a half million dollars in the Daytona 500 worldwide attention has been focused on Daytona for the past week is NASCAR's finest Winston cup drivers have to do in practice and experimented to come up with a winning combination today. But he like dole even if a couple of drivers should hit upon something that makes them run a little better than everyone else is still have to beat lady luck at Daytona that's never easy. It never is easy the last shoot Daytona 500 is the highlight of which we've just heard from a year ago Jeff quote time. Running out of fuel and a couple of years ago was put nine who made his way to Victory Lane. As dale earnhardt's car came up just shy of the finish line again. Running short of fuel but there are so many stories today party that have been developed over the last week to ten days here at the world center of racing. Are these cars able to run by themselves. Some say yes Bobby Allison proved that at times you certainly can't Massey did during the qualifiers on Thursday. But there are other teams that feel right now to get in line and stay in line at least in the early stages of today's race is very much the way to go. We'll Darrell Waltrip and Bobby Allison have been the only two cars to show they might be just a little bit stronger all weeklong both want qualifying races here Thursday but today it's 500 miles instead of 125 miles against the best in the world. And when Harold candor drops the green flag at roughly 12:20 eastern time this afternoon. Everyone at the outset will be chasing the pole sitter Kenny schrader driver of the Folgers Coffee Chevrolet he's on pit road with doctor Jerry punch gentlemen. Well a special incentive for Kenny straighter you know Dick Wilson president southeastern division of Sherman Williams paint company announced the new. Sherwin-Williams super performance awards 101000 dollars Kenny. And that award goes to the fellows it's on the pole at this racetrack here at Daytona and win the 500 you're the only one has a shot and it's pretty good incentive in itself. Well as sure as you know 101000 hours of live mine goes along ways around one these cars but to. It's especially nice now that that 101000 hours out there in our name is the only one aren't we can on one again. Well in the new Folgers ride the new Folgers callers did something that the drivers have been trying to for a long time last driver for Harry hi this little pole at Daytona was Buddy Baker reckoned 1973. And you've done your first time in fifteen years you feel pretty good about two shot today. I really do you know that's a long race there's an awful lot of cars running good but we know that we're one on the run as good as anybody out here better than a lot of can you run by yourself out front and run away from. Now I don't think now we can do that but I don't think anybody else out here can either. Who's really the primary competition jury concerned about. Values gotta go down the list there's a lot of but that's especially have to go with with Bobby. Dale Darryl and David. Well Alison waltrip David of course back in the field and a lot of guys he's concerned about appear particularly guys up behind him waltrip and Bobby Allison. Back at the tail end of the feel our way back in the Palin would feel a lot of the top names in this business that are gonna have to work their way to the front and how they can do that that's going to be a major problem with losing 200 horsepower from last year the draft is the key. And to get the thoughts of some of those drivers let's go down with Dick Brooks. Well one of them scale Yarborough and I don't think there could be any thing worse than to come to a racetrack after couple bad. Bad years are hard years. And then be run in the way you run and 125 mile race and then have an accident and in have to start the same Carner race that's that's got to be terrible parent. Well let's us just dig we felt like listen to this car and so instead of you know run another car won't fixes and then not so forced a pretty good if we just get through all this missile thing would be all right but that's a long ways to defraud. In a couple of years trying to put this parties overbuilt came together as it does seem to come together was that it was a just a good run evident. Well it was this coming together we ran good the last race of the year last year in Atlanta and that's some problems there and then and home toward Obama as we run super good in. Is coming together form a think this year's Wachovia Goodyear has ordered those mobile home. Tales teams all dressed up they're pumped and ready to go. A leading yesterday's final practice session here at Daytona Davey allison's car brushed the wall. And his crew worked until 9 o'clock last night and return to the speedway 3 this morning to get back Havilland star back in the running order. Jerry punches with the young driver from Huey town. Well are concerned about it of course Eli Eli just coming in much your your brush with the wall yesterday the last session how the car Davy. Well and it's been really listed here and now when. The whole crew went over real good yesterday we straighten everything out on us later in game mantle at thirty last night that. I think they've done an excellent job to get him back in shape and we're on track but the tablets are thunderbird out front. The comets all week long have been the Fords are at a disadvantage the one inch blade isn't fair to the Fords on the drivers have been saying it but. You proved a little bit differently can he keep up with the with the Chevrolet that are there are around you here on the front a front heroes. I don't you know I put a hurt on us pretty bad here in English class in qualifying and in the qualifying races that. We're gonna we're not concede anything to know we're gonna go out there around hard all day and try to win this thing. Well watch out for Allison Davey and Bobby with Davy especially they're there at all different set up here in the car it's been repaired overnight. They could be strong today it's a strange sight to see Bill Elliott Ford Thunderbird city way back toward the Palin who feel this may be as far back as he has started in a major race and a lot of years let's get his thoughts let's go back to Dick Brooks. Well that's certainly true. And for bill has got to be something he's going to be thinking about starting this foreign backpack. When you think bill. Well you know you look at it this the way the pole position was an eight volatile Leon's son Mikhail with all else found weeks after just thirty cars and throw out. No pulling out each user want to go out and be careful. And try to be in Iraq played the rot time and try to get to the room. Whatever transmissions and it looked like try to jam it two years and shelled out first and third one went from second to third. Well maybe everything work out today that's kind of a freak thing that happened but it happens once in awhile but they aren't. We're getting down to it here they talk right now let's go back down pit road and doctor Jerry punch. Well Bobby Allison sitting third in the Miller Buick in Bobby every war. The last few days have been watching your card saying you're the man to be through the strongest force in the field do you believe him. Well I hope they're right that I'm not sure that's corrected. Lot of cars run very very good and these guys don't ever give up you know again race all day long. Well the drivers as they can hang on a Bobby allison's delegates yet to finish secondly through all the drivers to only had a minute ago is Allison looks like the man to be here today he's been strong all weeklong at the very back of the field are a couple of drivers Brit bovine and Betty Parsons now they know they have their work cut out for them let's go back there with the crooks. Well one I'm certainly does he started on the on the other end of the field many times and now is justice for back on this in as you can get that's Benny Parsons Benny what you plan. The kind of area do we changed engines in the car this morning just trying to find. A little more speed just a little bit more street because to run was so those cars up there with fill out we really into it got to have so. You know I'm never starter race before and I could look up through view mirror and wish somebody good look behind me. There's nothing back there today.

This is a 2.5. Mile speedway the turns one and two like east and west 31 degree banking in the corners down there on the cover the action for motor racing network this afternoon that vicinity of the racetrack lets go to Joseph Moore from Hampton Virginia thank you bought a good afternoon everyone what a beautiful day here in Central Florida as we get ready for the great American race this afternoon. They say quite a bit of action here at the past week it turns one and two of the speed like and a lot of that is being caused by the problems of the draft to the back straightaway no one is able to get out and make passes by themselves as we've seen in past years so what they're doing it turns one and too many times is if you cause a drop down the inside the racetrack trying to get out of the mainline traffic and form their own little draft to make this shot down the back straightaway that's calls for a lot of interesting moments are coming off turn two minutes back straightaway and we'll be watching all that for you get a Santa cars could be up as high as a 19697. Miles an hour at the end of that long back straightaway and at 31 degree banking is the only thing that catches honestly go in there and sometimes it's three wide getting in that corner at least that's what we have seen all week here to cover the action over in turn three. Let's go to Rick Benjamin from Kearney Nebraska. Thank you Bonnie good afternoon everyone lots of activity here especially yesterday the Busch grand national event at the end of the 3000 foot made shoot. As Joseph Moore described the cars many of them will try to stay high but a few of the more adventuresome drivers will workflow would try to make that pass to the great. Many of the drivers that say they don't think they can do it with the newly restricted voters of. Few yesterday were successful Bobby Allison who won yesterday was among the we'll be keeping an I had that accident that of course is the car's movement to turn three and climb the 31 degree banks right now the field rumbling past. V turns number 3M for area one car breaks out of formation and head down pit road following in behind a couple of the safety vehicles. At Jimmy means automobile will be making obviously unscheduled trip down the pit lane we'll update you want got a second but up in terms of number three of forwards in a lot of. My hands laid out over the course of speed weeks 1988. Has come orange resident snowbird from Toronto Ontario Canada had come to all of us. Eli the 31 degree banking here in turn four and they taught we'll keep most of these Winston cup cars that they in the middle group. Yesterday in the goodies 300 we saw some drivers try to run high in the turn. And also dropped to the bottom of the racetrack. Without a whole bunch of different results if you run too far down on the banking and get the inside wheels of the car on the flat apron of turn four the car gets air underneath and as we saw here with Larry Pearson yesterday in the goodies 300. He spotted here in the turn the cars will then drift to the outside of the turn up against the concrete retaining lawless state. Move out of the turn where the banking levels out before they run back to the start finish line. One update for you from pit lane giving me is now pulling car 52 back of the frayed Jerry punch what's the story there. Here's a bit transmission problem Leyland had the car on the Jack and trying to get the car in gear a course that's the backup car may destroy it is up original little 500 car on Thursday to the head of very little out of time to work on the car and get ready but that got him off pit road and ready to go. Field just going out of turn over to it down the back straightaway there running for a big win today over one and a half million dollars on the line for today's Daytona 500. A lot of unknowns to be answered even though they have run some qualifying races and practiced and qualified and tested and fine tune on the cars. Losing 200 horsepower for the whole different complexion on the race this afternoon the drivers feel that this race could well be one on what you do getting in and out of the pits an awful lot of strategy there. Three teams elected to change engines following yesterday's final practice session Benny Parsons car number ninety kale Yarborough as hardee's Oldsmobile. Phil Parsons machine changing an engine following me practiced yesterday to matter of fact through the entire course of speed weeks for the stock cars. 211. Different engines were in race cars between the sixty some odd cars have tried to qualify oppose Iran on the qualifying racist. And right there on today's field of 42 starters 211 power plants. Used over the course of speed weeks. There's a bunch of vengeance as they say our honorary starter this afternoon is mr. Roger beach the president of Unocal refining and marketing division he'll put the field under green they're up in turn four. They Pontiac Grand Prix pace car whether it's lights out I had heard that brought trader and Davey Allison at the front of the field Bobby Allison Darrell Waltrip I think I'm feeling good shape looking for green. But Daytona 500 is about 12100 yards from getting under way here this afternoon as they worked their way down to the start finish line this crowd. We'll get an estimate for a little bit latest effort is by far the biggest one we've ever seen at Daytona. And it's about to get under way as mr. beach drops the green flag and the Daytona 500. This week as they hit return. Watch still exactly like they started up among the front court order doors and work into the corner it may stay that way while it may not. Two by two for the third spot called back put up what the battle side by side can't strike her down on the low side of Davey Allison right behind him Bobby Allison sitting in the third spot and Darrell Waltrip has not yet again he maintains that's probably outside all the back straightaway getting straighter down low that Davey Allison up tied door to door down the back straightaway first of 200 times by. Jockeying for position Bobby Allison going to Bode Miller. Davey Allison pushes ahead by half a club like traitor to the bottom of the racetrack now has now with Bobby Allison apple wants out of anybody else and we'll take the weight baby out of.

Well as we said pit strategy and getting in and out of the pits is going to be a big part of who wins this race a lot of teams have been planning omit all week long. Let's go to garage and so if we get a word from mark. Martin market value out of it early a lot of smoke coming from the schools like Wharton. Well. In a week we overheated the thing just acted like you want to rent a warm from the very start of the race. He got up to about 250 in and started pushing water so. Think it's all over not a great way to start this new deep well you know I'll I can say is I'm sorry for them. Shows like teen jet crash in all the guys you know we'll just have to go back and try to win her race at Richmond. Mark mark not a that the 500. One driver who lost a good bit of position on pit road because of the physical location of where it was used Davey Allison. Went past the pit just a bit managed to get himself boxed in. And once the service was completed Davie had to lose some more spots on pit road before I was able to get back out into the fray. We'll have a goodly distance to make up after heading back towards pit lane running in the top five just moments ago. If I was second at the lake speed they would Darrell ride to her achievements because what they're thinking is there a everyone came that it changed tires you did you take no tires and a little fuel like speak normalized net.

I had to spoke to Tim brewer about not changing tires and in maybe in the good part of a figure whatever if as vs loser. Is that. He said that they ran their tires 125 miles also and at 330 seconds to rubber left on that's that's almost two thirds of the river left. And said that they ran better.

Green flag is out we'll haul it back in the turnover want Rusty Wallace is the leader by virtue of getting a good quick pit stops as he takes it down through. We've got a lot of company as he hits the corner. One of those accompanying there is light speed he's got the second spot as they climb the banking. In third now Sterling Marlin what this deal on it.

Off turn two it's like speech joined the white black scarlet fever Sterling Marlin now. Single file down the back straightaway speed of violence started to open up a little running room on Rusty Wallace who is in third deal body Geoff what I've. Single file through turn three at lake speed your leader Sterling Marlin second. Rusty Wallace moment not a third and again while enterprise the low side up and burned more.

He may go backwards you later continues to be mileage speed roughly. I feel fine multiple pick up that fifth place position going underneath that what died in turn three he still sits at the bottom of the racetrack sterling. At nearly light speed second Rusty Wallace let me a platform. You gotta give walk with a lot of credit he finally finds a place to tuck the car in as they come back the line was not about to drift back idiots really been working many in just a whole what he has that he gets in behind Jeff Levine.

He is not by himself Dick there a host of drivers out there particularly the field who have been unable to get up through traffic and all this afternoon Ricky Rudd is another one of those after that round of pit stop to the wire particularly the field Richard Petty and that is DP Pontiac is kind of hanging back there. But Richard says you never worry about the early part of the Daytona 500 race the fastest car doesn't always win here. It's a game of strategy this. They just turn out that way. The wall and they're working on his draft while racing Chevrolet and cutting what's the problem. And we'll wait and thank you suddenly get shots and block them.

But the Oldsmobile color still very strong here at Daytona a couple of bolts running app appointed Darrell Waltrip Joseph Moore still scrambling and you're into the street ran turns one and two to grab spot. Once again he'll work back down almost on the racetrack that's where the car's handling. Well right now although the man at the bottom of the racetrack is Bobby Allison into the product pick up some spots but as somebody does have done today he's going backwards instead of forward Allison has those dance partner on the inside this time it's still Stirling violin legs bit Rusty Wallace to now Darrell Waltrip has moved to fourth by. Sterling Marlin late and often at great lake speed in second here's Walter but the bottom of the the racetrack you'll take over the third place position he'll bring Dale Earnhardt along let up Earnhardt and waltrip for the. But lock times since we've seen there are always lucky has today here at Daytona but he is determined to win this thing if at all possible he works his way offend the number three position the battle now is the fourth between Earnhardt and Rusty Wallace. They're door to door they're hitting the water. Italy on a hard there at the bottom of the racetrack trying to get Neil wanna look building his rear deck. And form a draft to get my little heart doesn't dated. He slips by arresting lots of those double ball once again Bobby Allison goes down low he's alongside they'll want it.

Connie sailor one of the top independent drivers and over the years he's had more than his share thrills here at the Daytona speedway in the back straightaway once in the car just take off and go straight up in the air within when he was striving for GC Spencer we understand that car before the Kodak film Oldsmobile Rick Wilson didn't get back in the lead lap a moment ago good move for Rick Wilson let's come of the pit stops Jerry punch. The first part of Reagan national that I was real plot and a good quick pit stop by the right bought through the valley group purely for male body was down a play in about six and a half seconds.

Field is forming up for a double file restart up internal forward Darrell Waltrip is leader after the round of pit stop skinny trader has found himself back at the front of the pack now he currently sits in the number two position in the Obama Bobby Allison Perry can't. As they get ready to come loose up in turn four. Darrell Waltrip Buckley up front of the field like cars that are running at least a lap down drop for the bottom of the racetrack. Ask they'll be lucky to get this looked back going again at all. Feel coming down Pontiac police cars on pit road Harold tender look so over the green flag waves and they'll go back to racing speed in a hurry Walker Cup through that here. Box breaks away from Kenny Slater by a couple of car lengths trying to shake the crap on everyone else feel plus the gets shuffled back about separate spots and they work often try. Number one in the front to have broken away. But I generally think of about four spots now only the second place car did a traitor it's Darryl Walton join the way dropping way to handle those other racetrack. Quite a bit of moving around back further afield as the driver of the I have try to get. Car deal bodies third Bobby Allison a sport they've hooked up they're gonna try to chase down the tube leak are the two Chevrolet waltrip and straighter at the head of the class. And here is Bobby Allison to be inside trying to move my bonnet and guys prefer. Bobby Allison up and let third place position shuffling he'll block it back in the fourth place spot waltrip your leader. Now face right Iraq's second Bobby Allison third plotted. And it's clever boys and bad. Another man making a move now is Michael Waltrip he's driving in gyms daughter's car in the country time lemonade machine. And Michael let's look at one of the rear deck of just pulled nine went Turner's right behind Kyle Petty and Bill Elliott they're running ninth tenth eleven and twelve right now. Meanwhile flood. Darrell Waltrip has plenty of company can't traders close it and fast enough but our number two they'll stay but they're together single file off the quarter. The fourth of steel but good battle for fourth fifth and sixth your leader continues to be Walter recoverable license state with a front pack your body Ellison to the inside. Try to make it look like trader for a second. Bobby Allison goes underneath that can't eat right or he'll take over that second place position. Sliding up the blanket now waltrip your leader Bobby Allison second Kenny trader at thirty a lot of parts. Floyd they have got the same situation we had here yesterday and nearly 300 it's hard to decide which race you wanna watch and tell. I know our failure will look like I'm proud. Well as he runs up against everything they want the rest of the cars at the audience I'd male enhancement that role. Yarborough really smacked that Wallace a car looked like it just turned around coming out of turn before here he is on pit road with smoke falling from the right side she let. Medalist caved in on the front of the car and Kayla is going to the garage area where under caution the third time this afternoon that came on lap number 47 again let's go back to turn four. PLC to loop the car rowdy was running low down on the racetrack and Mata got those two wins side wheels definitely apron that just opens up more air under the car. It went spinning around Luke the a couple of times he did a nice job of keeping it off the wall here in turn four. And that once he got it straightened around headed down to Rome. Feel coming back to the strike had to take the checkered at least the yellow flag we should say Harrell candor. Dave Marcus making an effort to get one of his laps back we'll have to wait and see whether NASCAR. Officially says he does or does not Dave was running a couple of laps down to a he does get a lap back. He'll be nearly one in arrears Dick brought kale Yarborough had just been on pit road for a cup. We'll stops what were they doing at that point. Well you know he had bumped the Wallace and again just slipped into they'll drives our panelists anyway which means the rear of the car once that kind of hang out. And they were back out I think trying to catch up. And just got down to low as they reported in your when you run down in the bottom of turn four it's really bumpy down there's track is not smooth as it is up at a top. And in slip up Monday one time remember back a few years ago he got that he got out like that got upside down in. That's a faster way around but you've got to be brave to do it. 48 laps are complete we may see some more pit stops despite the fact that they ran just a few laps ago on lap number forty. Walker has been one of the strongest cars all week long at practice and in the qualifying races Bobby Allison the two cars that. Might have had a little bit of an age at least they felt so psychologically starting the event here this afternoon but after that last round of pit stops we're seeing some of the other big names and NASCAR moving up to the front walk for apple peel off. And hit for pit road let's find out what's going on there Jerry punch. Well there while the did not kill that last caution flag Barney so you've got fitted for some 47 laps that. He'll take advantage of this yellow blanket come in and we'll get bored Kyra Phillips live your whole life. Jeff have a report arrives on the car any bigger than life what are often seen as a first get a feel him. And sandy Jones thank the left front tire off download the last career. Right side tires and placed the windshield being slain. And hammered wield the jackets playing the around the cardinal on the left side left side of the car will go up we'll be rooting for dark Jane's good work for the tide earlier for their long. More stops are going on in front of Dick Brooks. Well I'm down here trying to get mail that everybody's gathered around in some almost to drive Jerry Lee Bakley decide. It worked with Taylor find out what happened there the other cars that are pitting Richard Petty is on pit road and they're taking a long time to change some tires all the way around on his machine. It appears that Buddy Baker is also in there and these are routine pit stops that they're making under this third caution flag in the afternoon the only drivers out of the event Morgan Shepherd Mark Martin Greg Sachs. Connie sailor and kale Yarborough the latest car to go through the garage area. Dave Marcus was stuck back in line behind Darrell Waltrip he could not manage to get that lap back just kept up the strike by DW and Dave Marcus effort to get there one of the two laps down. Back on the scoreboard. We've got killed in the in the garage here. Maybe people would talk to be. Doesn't look overly happy but that's what we'll release that is whoever. They killed Yarborough is out of it hit the wall of internal. Apparently the car just came out from under so to speak and they've had a lot of drivers have that problem and stick format a moment ago talking about running the car loose this. Or has been one of the big keys here more so this time around than ever before them getting that the higher that's all we're standing up for more steep the degree on it. The more it gets hooked up to the racetrack in other words the downforce hold the card out if you drop it back like he said which makes the car around a little bit loose and actually puts it in the driver's hands he makes his own decision minister how far he takes it to the age. Let's go to Roger Dick Brooks. Caleb it's been a good day. Well this time coming awful wrong turn for big got a long you know whether someone who was driving our. All willow Reynolds I'm always try to go live tile. And reported did you kind of sucked up in the long. Oh yeah. Without. I gotta get congressman good dividend. At all. We're about Krause haley's pretty dejected but he's you know that's race and he's been there before Bobby Allison has just taken the green flag leads them back into turn to. And he's got about a four car length lead over second place deal bottom of the come off the bank its. Third full cost of Dallas. Lake speed is on the inside challenging Harry Gant for third spot Bobby Allison joined that he can run by jumping to eight violated the field here's yet to be inside for second. Challenge relaxed second place position Harry Gant will move into the second place spot. As they run about the turn far Bobby Allison your leader Harry get right behind him at second plate steel body this learn. You've got a gas or something huge smiles at that school band that pit area right now Travis Carter the crew watching Harry can't settle right in the I had an off field product and the lapped car of Trevor boys. The running right behind my a couple of correlates framing the race leader Bobby Allison. Yet at some point Alex behind Allison as they go back into turn one the lapped car of Trevor boys sits between dance and a third place car of Neil bonnet. Now on the blue pill parts of sitting back and forth. What's happening inside he's got bill. Elliott right behind this Vallely it's really been moderate he has up to six position everywhere stance single pilot Bobby Allison outage brought Kerry give that the boys not feel fine. His third golf markets in LA. Parsons rips up a little that hire and to the bottom of the racetrack they're probably would not let the thought he was gonna go underneath the valley at the sides of the clock back and live Bobby Allison nearly a rapper Paul. We are working the 54 of 200 laps it make up the Daytona 500 today one man who has a lot of work to do attitude right now but is going about it rather systematically as Darrell Waltrip. Rick Benjamin as he comes to you he's picking off positions on the low side of the racetrack. Why it is time we did on the first lap for you after the break right but now I just gone by Richard Petty and Derrick cope with picked up a couple of additional spots you like. A long way from 25 position back to the front of the pack which you have to have some patience to do it here this afternoon here comes to lead draft back down alive Allison is in front. Harry Gant has to be all smiles he's right behind him in the number two position he'll modify its third it's a single. The final draft in the west in the racetrack back and forth a lot of they have the banking once again a good run for young Phil Parsons and fifth now as Bill Elliott sixty Jeff both died and Whitewater as a country time lemonade department the seventh spot. Unlike the ride Terry gets turned again this afternoon yet been able to hang right in there he is second now right behind Bobby Allison trying to real elicited you'll stayed behind Bobby those of the wanted to make our steel body its third. So far it's. A couple of car lengths separating Bobby Allison and Harry Gant Allison drifts up high at the 31 degree banking. At the bottom of the racetrack a couple of cars trying the low side. Earnhardt and Rusty Wallace. They come back to the strike those two cars hooked up together downstairs. Trying to bypass the Michael Waltrip machine but Michael holds off the challenge now let's just quote I'm on the move. He looked at the inside of Bill Elliott and how Elliot comes along if joined him in the battle back to one that's a battle for the fifth spot once again LD glowed I'm looking down low bike walk through its body is running quite well behind slapped the racetrack any gains just a bit of both does it. To Dale Earnhardt making a strong willed body inside of the Goodrich automobile he's by himself download this time leader continues to be Bobby Allison some help for Earnhardt behind him as Rusty Wallace they pick up a couple of. Bobby Allison and Harry Gant battle up through with turn gray to the bottom of the racetrack now it's Earnhardt and Rusty Wallace Burkhardt talks at Wallace still get to the bottom. Baylor heart beginning to make a little noise back in the pack as he worked his way to the front Rusty Wallace got shuffled opposition coming up front before he'll drop back one more spot the tail end of that. Card rapidly headed. Don't want nobody can touch Bobby Allison he's been that strong all weeklong. Alison great to Annapolis on the racetrack Harry gantt tools to get down on the bottom of the racetrack another what does behind him going low is Dale Earnhardt he slips underneath the cell. Clark at their side by side. Racing for the fifth spot and hard work in an alien now elects to tuck it behind billion dollar bill as they get down the back straightaway Michael Waltrip got by himself down low work and I kept going back. Bernhard still trying to chase down Elliott as he runs back in the sixth place position are aren't acting out of a bottle racetrack it burned for. Ask Michael Waltrip also runs not at the bottom body. Michael staying down low for the back lake speed picking his way back to the point after running among the top three or four for much of the afternoon. It's Bobby Allison putting my number 58 on the board. He along with Harry gantt running just ahead of a lap. Our Trevor boys who himself is having an outstanding run right now but he is not running with the race leaders blazes drafting right along with the rights leaders again on the lead lap but that may be a bit of benefit here for deal but as they come off a quarter. Looking for drafting partners they had out the back straightaway. And automobiles those detailed Bobby Allison still the head of the class here again content to ride in second Trevor boys along with a variety of monitor could third Phil Clark. Bobby Allison still holds the lead spot at this freight train I can't Earnhardt dropped to the bottom of the racetrack he's been it'll make that car work profit burned floor. And he'll pick up one spot. But the last two years at Daytona that bottom of the speedway so to speak coming through the corner has been Dale Earnhardt strong suit now Richard Childress and that team or one of the best in the business but getting your car to handle and handling is so critical at Daytona particularly this time around. Bernhard will have to talk back in single file he's not going anywhere as they get in the banking in the west and move. Track they're on single file this time by climbing high up the bank of turn number two would heading up the back straightaway still chasing Bobby Allison. I can't second field monetary. Started sitting six that no change in all the leaders break trading at down the back straight like it did derided Bobby Allison to wait for now Michael Waltrip who think he's walling off the pace. If that was. Perry can't closing up about Bobby Allison for third place car is still male plotted and I've rarely tighten it up and is heard art at the bottom of the racetrack you'll. It's out of Phil Parsons. Dale Earnhardt on the left side tires is low on the racetrack as one could possibly go towards the apron. He's drawn even with the Oldsmobile Phil Parsons and that's the battle for fifth spot. Earnhardt staying inside trying to draw even with his hunting and fishing buddy Neal bottom Earnhardt got a good read generally looked up there at the bottom of the racetrack trying to pull along Phil Parsons now and that was the battle for the fourth spot her heart will pick it up come off the court gets around parts of the the public to lose our heart beating inside ideal body robotic covers the position it stays up high so the leaders they had chief Bobby Allison now. Three I like to had a Harry Gant bottom. Heard heart drops again to the low side of the racetrack looking to pick up that third place positioning up a couple walks out of the plot it. And they're side by side coming up but first floor first. Dale Earnhardt works at this business he's not content to ride fifth when he can ride forth he's not content to ride for the didn't get up to third he's working on the bottom right now. He's been inside and outside of a couple of times ago about a quarter vocalist cause quite a bit through the dogleg if they get often turn over one neither one giving an end. It's the battle for the third spot meal plan and on the outside Dale Earnhardt down low Burkhardt has the edge come off the quarter but bottom battles back. Finally once again they're dead even it it is our current low bond and hide battle for third bid battle for that to you got Rusty Wallace at Phil Parsons started or right behind. Barnard hooks up with the wallet they go well I think. Get five on the sales side by side for. Third Dale Earnhardt at the bottom of the racetrack Neil plotted out the nice mail. Doorman and doorman allotment turn more athletic now look back. On the Obama settles in line holding on third spot Dale Earnhardt talks right back in and fourth. Fifth as Rusty Wallace in the battle hours for six passed everybody tries to work himself alongside Phil Parsons likewise Bill Elliott. Michael Waltrip also bears 62 laps of the 200 are complete.

For. Mike Powell fought the laid off and turn all our Bobby Allison still your leader and that about a lot. Now let's turn our focus on yeah. Bobby Allison has the biggest lead anyone's head in the Daytona 500 all day long look rocket right here it is one point one seconds that's the biggest lead that anyone has enjoyed as Allison has been able to break the draft. And get away from the rest of the field from second on back it's still a good scramble in turn one. Never boys is still there again on the lead lap that he has separated the second place car again for the third place car of our cars and parts of the tape template. Capitalist not a boy's Dale Earnhardt download trying to make a move to get boys kicked back a little brother Bernhard and boys' side by side down the back straightaway Bernhard will move around the boy credible. We'll we'll take we'll find a way to. Earnhardt also the Los out of he'll bring a lot of along with about you know that fourth place position scrambled black pepper then that's what Bonnie runs at best they'll parts of the site. Terry nobody trying to scramble right there along with a host of others in that pack chasing down Bobby allison's stretches the advantage. The good battle for second on back Harry Gant holding off Dale Earnhardt the true value of hard charger award. Darrell Waltrip currently the leader of that category ahead of lake speed and Rusty Wallace the lake street continues to limp his Oldsmobile around the racetrack the battle for second and talk turned to. They're like come Dale Earnhardt family of five Perry can't. Our hearts got to get the edge on the back straightaway Earnhardt what might get that time without a whole lot of problem but Bobby Allison is wearing out the field about a fifty kind of like advantage sitting for fifth spot that fifth if nobody. While plotting going side by side now for that fifth place position as saying he has Phil Parsons and Bill Elliott right behind a Bobby Allison your leader as they. Our blood runs second. Bobby Allison continues to drive away from everyone in the Daytona 500 like speed is out of turner before on the apron of the track in heat lately pit road you may not. His way out of traffic no problem at all with a car but he is very slowly trying to make his way to pit road 68 laps were complete here at Daytona. Finally take it looked like street critique they'll run a minute ago barrels of lake told that the cart is often quit insulate the engine is gone ahead to the garage area. I'm sitting in the Bobby Allison didn't get a headache. And they're watching their driver run up front and Jimmie are you concerned a little bit about the fast paced bodies setting early on. Icebergs come. It's being. Well he's comfortable everyone else is going to be in for all of his body else consumer awareness usually the only one is comfortable everybody else has to be uncomfortable boy he's beginning to pull away from the field Kyle Petty its car has been far off the pace for about the last fifteen or twenty laps Dick Brooks and give us the story. By the sound. And an engine problem. Kyle thought he was in good shape going into the race today we talk for the yesterday afternoon after the final practice he said we have. Ford is as quick as anyone here and we can run with the leaders but right now. Is lost a lot of ground 69 laps go on the scoreboard Bobby Allison continues to stretch the advantage on everyone else unbelievable. That's how just how quick that car has been all week if he worked to turn three. Good battle over sec it it is Earnhardt spotted at look at after the battle it Perry can't say they've gone back and forth better. If you're carded second right now. Earnhardt's there's just had a deal plotted Bobby Allison running laps out in front back and forth spot is Harry Gant Terry apply. Two and a half seconds that's the advantage for Bobby Allison of Huey town winning here yesterday in the goodies 300. Winning disqualifying event last Thursday it's been Bobby Allison tweet from start to finish let's check in in the garage area. Lake speed on Buckley probably the great great lake what puts out there like. And I certainly bottom came out motivated. I haven't done with the engine problem on the Wenzel I I don't have the winds Kmart Balco battered car brought a distant past American and let the market saying it there was. Lake speed out of it. Daytona 500 we talked earlier how well lake speed in front which we on these big tracks Daytona and Talladega and he was all smiles earlier we need to see that happen that it has meanwhile. Bobby Allison who was running a higher groove now through turns three and for the most anybody else still stretching that advantage it's pushing three full seconds now over that second place battle. Dale Earnhardt holding down the second spot as Bobby puts a lot Bob Steve Moore. Earnhardt in second meal on a third Harry can't afford the good battle now fifth spot a story to a body works for the inside of filled person to person running well over one. Martin doubled I sign the racetrack he has the advantage right now Soledad for the fact that it's a little bit ahead but also he's got a drafting partner right behind the chaplain died as they come off of the Parsons a lower body but don't edit the last several laps and now Parsons had the advantage definitely for fifth position. Perry can't continuing to smoke the wind is now at 45 try to gather up field bottom. I've been at turn number three that battle for second place really heating up now is this not her. Our heart goes I don't want to 31 the great banking deal bonnet is right there Harry candid fourth and then my. It's rusty well. We are at Daytona International Speedway for the 1988 running of the Daytona 500 motor racing network's live coverage. Michael Waltrip on and off pit road 27 cars remained on the lead lap. Everybody is chasing Bobby Allison. Who had peeled away to a nearly 32 advantage now Barney. Earnhardt feel confident we can put together it's a one point 752. Advantage there eating in just a bit Allison to manage. That's the only way you can catch. Allison the way he's running this afternoon or anybody else that matters to put it to three or four car draft. The kind of chase them down and stay in line close up make the air clean and they're running him down let's take you back in the field lays. At lap where it left 75 right now but it lap 71 on the rundown we have for NASCAR had Allison leader earnhardt's second to yield on the third Harry Gant fourth carry the body fifth bill Parsons was six. Rusty Wallace is running along and seventh spot good run for Mike Walker he currently was an eight its position at that time he has made a pit stops instantly dropping back a little bit. That will move up to eight now Jeff Levine in life would be bill Elliot Tim looks like Darrell walker then walker is a car that is on the new. With the eleventh place car. At the 71 lap mark would have been Sterling Marlin then Allen licking Buddy Baker and Kenny straighter wouldn't rounded out the top fifty. Things are getting touchy back there from about fourth spot on back it's a work in to the back straightaway. Right behind Darrell Waltrip that is definitely not just look for the I thought the racetrack Mike Walton to follow that back I thought not again. It's back to another bid battle between Phil Parsons they're a bunny Bobby Allison long ways away but its second spot it's uncharted field wanna hear going at it very close. Lot of it right there when I heard Carter if they battle for second and here's waltrip underneath up. Rusty Wallace yelled about that a fifth place spot but I'm trying to go along with about minutes. Darrell Waltrip got back in line Murray and he is charging towards the point just what time but I have to squeeze around the slower car here in the tri oval area. Worked his way between Ralph Jones and Rusty Wallace trying to get back in a position ahead of resting their back and won meanwhile Bobby Allison thinks that real hot line working the clean air through turns wanna do pressed with a hard working a little bit lower all the racetrack. It's Dale Earnhardt in second. Outfield spots. Up from third. Couple of lap cars in front dale earnhardt's links that low trying to break the draft night deal bonnet our heart goes back up high he's opened up a car like over bonnet for second spot fourth again. It's Walter. While truck is right there as they caused by this time not supporting what the great backing to get around a two lap cars but he gets close they thought the fourth place car. Perry can't. Walker one of the quickest cars in the field he's been all smiles all week long and anybody that would listen he's been saying I'm ready to go racing in 1988 this is going to be my year I've gotten myself in shape we talked with a about. That feel really good up they'll work it out. You know I tell somebody that night Lorena and and I noticed the back I used to be able to race car. And grab a card to my fullest capabilities and never had to really work it because it's my natural instinct and natural abilities I stayed pretty good shape. And mentally and physically ever going up they'll did. But this year I started right before Christmas are working out again and run in and really trying to get myself physically prepared. But what I've Michael we lobbyist here and what I think will be my television here. You know I gotta match up a lot of critics I have to take a lot of crap this last year about having a bad year and all I kind of thing but yeah. Let me days amid bad I think last year with a bad here wait I get go this year there's going to be a great year. He's living up to exactly what he said so far here they talk all week long he and Bobby Allison head to the quickest cars and he is working on. Walker is here the race is no question about that there and turned to walk into the fifth possession and now look at it like a. Move on Harry Gant who's running fourth wall that goes a little bit violent event that falls back. Walter trying to measure up by Harry yet can't take it down low a little bit then goes back to the wall waltrip looks inside can't do anything there. You'll stay alive at Bobby Allison Earnhardt finally get a walk. That second group is closing on Bobby Allison as a get Allison drift rail line up that 31 the great banking second third fifth with a lot of the racetrack as they continue to realize the leaders. Bobby Allison is continuing to leave the Daytona 500 that's Darrell Waltrip who's on the move trying to take a piece of me Obama the third. Heard a car drop to the bottom of the racetrack waltrip took me inside of me up a lot of field about the third and they'll be almost side by side. We want to open a lot of prefer coming out of turn four. Good thing their water has been working out to get himself in shape physically because he had been hustling that race car all afternoon lap after lap after lap he in the bottom or side by side working in the corner can walk to get around him they'll still stay door to door on anybody what degree banking concern over one. Neither one giving an inch lay up with a high side of the racetrack is Bobby Allison he's showing the way and now. I'm closing in on the album is. Smart wanna get second part are we chipping away Dallas city just a couple of highlights back late race for third waltrip to be inside ideal Monica are still those that goes down a vacuum. Going what waltrip and Kerry camp waltrip grab third can't perform. While drop Pixar got third place for the city meanwhile up rod air's current art to the bottom of the racetrack Bobby Allison got hot they'll be side by side out of turn court. Side by side then back to single file they go turnaround has caught Bobby Allison now catching him and passing that Miller high life Buick two totally different stories as strong as Allison has been all week long. Darrell Waltrip manages to stay with the front two with a three lead cars breaking away from fourth event volley Ellison later that it's our number one doesn't about midway up the banking while Taylor. Marks that at wide down the bottom of the racetrack and here comes Darrell Waltrip down low they almost make it we want the ball back at 6 o'clock. Walker got it right up on the back deck of earnhardt's automobile he had earnhardt's saving ground down low while Allison rides up high now although there once were great nose detailed out of breakup breakaway upfront won't drop flags audience got to learn aren't they go side by side effect for all our. Alison I saw I just want to put the bottom of the racetrack you know. And a second. And if that happens it's no allow Bobby Allison to pull away and open up the lead again that battle for second still hot ones across the start finish line walker by a couple of feet. We'll put Dale Earnhardt earnhardt's comes charging back and they'll go into the corner side by side. Get a bit as they hit return of what Darrell Waltrip this time machine down low that would fit red Chevrolet does a better than I had double the high side of the banking. Thought Walt could pick them apart at the bottom side of the racetrack quadrupled thanks I'll. Could lose either one giving an inch long trip like perhaps a better down the back straightaway Earnhardt comes right back again. Waltrip way down low inside the white line marketed right right arm up I take over second. If Walter could find. Right there and help lot of applause again on the second and third place 'cause I never thought I'd walk from. That's now into a parked car battle. Cattle per second Bobby Allison familiarly Iraq third floor but just in the span of that one lap while second third and fourth spot we're battling one another. Bobby Allison opens up a lead of nearly three quarters of a second meanwhile on pit road Jerry country should he stay in the start of regular green flag stop. And Dave Bobby Nolan has brought itself pillows for two tires and sixteen and a half seconds. Anybody else's through Jimmy Finnegan the crew are getting their pit board ready for Bobby Allison. 55 different Bobby Allison and I don't fit with the Miller sideways provocative idea here. We'll see just about everyone on pit road in the next few minutes because they'll go somewhere between forty and 45 laps and that's kind of stretching it possibly may be a lap further. But if they don't really need to run. It would expect Jerry they'll all be in here very shortly party you stated earlier the very important strategy for pitting is not how quickly you can't until you Pitt win at the word and I guess producing Bobby Allison and Dale Earnhardt possibly come down pit road together this momentarily. The good right fit Ford is now. Miller had worked for Bobby Allison down here comes. Here comes. Our body alphabet is developed yet to a halt and Jimmy Finnegan the proven right time of the car Jack they provide tablet are clearly feel. Here is Darryl Michael velvet ropes they've had real where they have like I thought. Dale earnhardt's ripping off for a you don't have the right side are already saying go on the left side of the car. And we still feel that our hearts are now. Like arts there's about fifteen point 4016. Seconds flat. It's obvious that earnhardt's team has not lost their touch for getting in and out of the pits in a hurry we'll see more of the cars peeling off here frequently drafted a moment. Here comes some more pit stop let's go to the crooks. I was ten and Dale Earnhardt spent sleeping man in the senate very very. What's as the car stopped and they may be Robbie out how this one thing is going to be very very important to. Earlier this you're gonna have to try to hit. And get back on the racetrack. Cars are gonna have to stay up front if you can't. He's going to be history until next positive. And I sit there and I'm sure there are a lot of can run the field down. Harry can't stand and they're put right side tires on his car as Rick Wilson comes in their checking his tires over the not gonna change and attended this Ghassan going out. Harry pulls out. It's all children goes on the grass but they don't. Yet they won't Jeff Levine and Bill Elliott. In front of Jerry punch holes right side tires on their cars good pit stop by Wanda Wilson and approved for death ride my Forte one on. Right side tires we'll dying like flies to stop for the floors for a while Phil Elliott is hitting. Ricardo hit all the Kodak also will leave. Ric welcome good to go forward Kyle Petty little blood runs the right side of the car half. Win any of the rest of the guys working on the car came to lifeline. Often it was well. On the road as well now Phil Parsons and Jerry look funny in front of techcrunch. We'll Phil Parsons took on the left side tires and awards the windshield of the car. We'll let her back now to roll back. Let's go to the garage area and hearing Montgomery you can give us an update on the cars that are out of the event or party sixth. Cars are the criteria they could Mark Martin when I was overheating problems kill Yarborough of course without the document and crashed in the fire went down rec center running seventh. This Pontiac and even help him off the oil companies and agencies stuff like speed lamented we didn't talk about it earlier would get slowly into. The car into the back. Morgan Shepherd on the engine problems in the first term rates coming sailor mouth after he couldn't fiery crash occurred. 491 laps around complete. It's stuff continues real bottom pit road from the Daytona International Speedway this is MRI and the motor racing that's. If you have a question or comment about NASCAR motor racing network has a direct line for you it's nothing. And for a model line. Menu because it's more kids this year and I wanted and now wondered what it was under the lights. Race cars. I'll plan any portion or want to ask him our hand and that's great force for the war. We ask you Mario. Margaret I haven't found the number I cover an array of Santorum hotline. Your connection until NASCAR. Back at Daytona International Speedway this round of green flag pit stops winding their way down the Obama Rick Jeffrey Dave Marcus now exiting the pit lane. The race leader indicators Darrell Waltrip on lap number 93 we are seven laps shy of the halfway point. Jerry punch we have just been discussing amongst ourselves during the break that most recent pet stop and all the others so far today for kneel on it. Well Neil bottom has yet to put big tires on the monopoly. Running so well this came out of it and go competitive car we're with butch market butcher you gentlemen haven't put any content are always filled the night started the race. Well and he has had a car sales in excess. The car and it's yards away a real good and then on his Basra. Is going good good. I'll freely and lets talk about an overhead that they've looked tired and put some gas in the car. And the other crews are standing you're shaking your head they just cannot believe that he's run. 984 laps in the same city started out as the fruit Elvis I'm here that's Darrell Waltrip. Tied through life I felt like if it's Walter comes out of turn before shows no indication of coming up pit road this time however Richard Petty does let's go to Dick Brooks. And is tankers can change right side tires giving fuel. And as he goes off there get ready to bring Kenny stranger's car and also played Vegas there's not a to bring women and there's not really no reason to make a pit stop with another car if by chance she can't get any help. The best thing to do is you don't feel politics again. That's always they I think. Collected data. Also can trainer Buddy Baker on pit road for their stops alum who Wiki. Bringing his Cyrix forward down the pit lane average speed 162. Point 716 miles an hour at this juncture of the event. Right now Darrell Waltrip slowing out of turn number four he's been running sold very well all afternoon. Picking off possession by possession oftentimes find himself to get near the point and Jerry punch the tide crews out there waiting for Darryl was approaching now. Let's put Darrell green flag stop on the clock here comes the tides have like zooming right bias here and now there has come to a home we stopped watching Jeff Hammond has exactly the right side of the car. Bell over at the right rear Carlton addicted already has the right front off. They replaced both rod thought god one can't feel going in my power almost like again up. Can't feel already in the car. 1213. Fourteen point 82 seconds good pit stop for Bill Walton and Davey Allison is on pit road Dick Brooks sales comes in. He made a nice smooth stop this time he's over shot it twice to win slide by a one time the other time he dismissed. He's been sent never 151617. Seconds. Bobby Allison has now crossed the stripe and out and everybody has made their green flag pit stops we are right back to where we were moments ago. Bobby Allison re assumes a lead and Joseph Moore he can't shake the guy's right behind anything. That guy behind. Once Fittipaldi of all day line that is Dale Earnhardt and our heart again this close again. As they come off the bank even further over the last of Fort Collins rusty Wallace's third and Wallace has been doing a good job to hang on whether or hard at trying to re elect Bobby Allison but Allison has stretched it out to about eight dialect. PO box. We'll battle up front for second place Dale Earnhardt next week GM Goodrich Chevrolet to the bottom of the racetrack Rusty Wallace infertile. Iiroc Neil bottom right there in fourth. And Darrell Waltrip might find himself a little bit of a predicament the leader is not that far behind waltrip Bobby Allison walker predicted earlier in the week that pit stops how you got in and got back on the racetrack is Dick Brooks talked about a moment ago could be the key to winning or losing this race. Alison takes the field back in the war. Back up the banks goes Bobby Allison again thank you that high line all those dust and dissolved retaining wall. Is Dale Earnhardt also take you behind line as the third and fourth place cards of Rusty Wallace. I still want it wasn't to Korea for laughing by the automobile grad a native Bobby Allison continues to stretch it out. Rusty Wallace has hooked up with a archive don't try to draft a real let Alison. Nothing going so far one of the sport. Good battle for that second third fourth place position rolling up return. As great as they stay very very close together Bobby Allison had a strong car all day. Performed the leader is Darrell Waltrip NASCAR scoring has just confirmed that walker is indeed at the front of the pack so Alison we'll have to chase him down instead of vice Versa and walker has a healthy lead going back into the turn two but five machine going good time to reply. The Kurds and he takes that load line as he brings along. This work hard day block it's it's a long. It's back to Bobby Allison who went to the second spot and now. Allison has company there was Dale Earnhardt at third Dale Earnhardt broken radio rusty Wallace's draft that now he's starting to gain some ground out the back straightaway. There although about a quarter of a mile behind Darrell Waltrip was the leader. Second place battle off the and it. Three Bobby Allison hauling that third place got second place but they should Earnhardt is third on the large out of the racetrack Daniel wanted to import Rusty Wallace spent. And is four seconds now from Darrell Waltrip who is just ahead of Dave Marcus and a couple of other slower lapped cars back to Bobby Allison. Dale Earnhardt Neil potted plant Rusty Wallace we are 101 laps complete one half one lap. Past the halfway point of the Winston cup season for 1980 weight training getting underway here. With the Daytona 500. We are working at this point with Darrell Waltrip Bobby Allison Dale Earnhardt Neil bonnet and Rusty Wallace battling as they work down the back straightaway up but it turned number three. And party so far this event. Finally is living up to somewhat of what the drivers are expected to seek going into Thursday's race you're having to settle at a private traffic Margaret chase down someone else. Unless you're gonna Walter. Just about everybody says you have to have more patience running this Daytona 500 than it had a lot of years has proven to be true. We've just passed the halfway mark a couple of laps ago where lap 102. And the 100 laps were laid up the halfway point 200 lick the race this afternoon at the Daytona 500 walker is a leader. Bobby Allison hangs on the second dale earnhardt's wife third in there right now you'll find. After the broken leg in October last year hoping to come back and win in the first outing here he is fourth. Rusty Wallace currently is being posted in fifth position and then Jeff Levine will round out the front runners. They have announced 140000. Fans the estimated attendance here at the world center of racing this afternoon. Watching pretty good one right now as Darrell Waltrip. Pass himself a pat on pack of four cars working their way down the back straightaway after the turn of the three. Chasing him at this point and we say the field has stabilized Bobby Allison best political party. Pulling away bit more from Dale Earnhardt in the rest of the week. Interesting to see whether Bobby decides at this point to chased down waltrip by his lonesome. Instead of taking the benefit to over three fellows behind it and it's like Trent. Well he can't afford that flag back too far he can run faster by himself out there obviously he's gonna go after walker forget what you've. Driven they told a lot of years I think the first time you rear was in 1969 from him out of many miles in this thing the last ten or twelve years in a driver out there. When you get a car that's hooked up like Darrell. It's hard to decide if you're not a laid back I guess you just have put down there because the cars comfortable and hanging out every lap all day long if it doesn't break obviously got a good. Apparently took patties Clark yes born and program. They're still at three other cars that. What paddy has hit the wall very hard he gets hit again as the car came to rest at the entrance to pit road. Pace car is really smashed front and rear as he went into the outside retaining wall. We'll get a number on the other car when the smoke clears the machine that did slam in the Richard Petty. Other cars involved included Allen Wiki he went through V debris inevitably cut a tire down and ended up going towards the wall. Also involved bear Rusty Wallace now going through the debris any fears walls cars one of those that was involved. As Richard Petty its. Car the case average flight coming off turn number four I just found himself right in the midst of race traffic. Had to be bounced off the wall only got attacked a couple of times Brad Teague across should have beaten grassy area. Filled park goal is also involved in the have a race special safety vehicles on the scene. To attempt to Richard Petty get out uncle Wiki scar went through the debris cut a tire down and caught the wall careening back through the grassy area where the safety crew is tending to him. Richard Petty is. Come to rest out in the middle of the racetrack and about four race cars badly torn up or sitting on pit road. Parts pieces of the car strewn all over the infield part down on the apron of the track that's played coming on the pit road here. It is a hard crash Richard Petty the car went airborne. Spun around a couple of times right in the middle of the speedway then went out and slammed into the outside wall skated down the racetrack perhaps for the 500 feet came to rest. And was hit again just as the car slid into the area coming into pit road. Here comes the rest of the field on the pit road obviously we are certainly under caution here. At lap 106. It looks like Allen to Wiki is out his car walking back across the pit road let's go out of the pits and Dick Brooks. Morning I got it right this series title are way down that direction on the tournament I very much we've got Alex Lloyd hear Allen's first of all you okay. Yeah all right what happened out there Allan. There was an accident or trial lawyer you know I saw its alternative gray where's slowing. Darryl boy down I slowed down tonight. There Katherine Harris thank you and I ran oversaw them blew the right front tire on the car just went into the wall. Well what would you do except for pretty well used obesity while he appears to be okay fine drivers come again to make their routine and it stops under caution. And he Beers walls car came to a stop after he attacked Richard Petty would bounced off the wall Beers wall climbing from his car. So Eddie is evidently okay Richard pace car. Was going to have through the corner and got loose as say was running a tight pack of traffic. At that point with a couple of cars around him Richard Petty began spending. And the sheet metal was sheriff flying off in different directions Bobby Allison just got by Brett both Diana. Tagging the Eddie Beers walk car and that Richard Petty again the recipient of part of that contact. It was one of those situations party where there was no place for anybody else to go once Richard's car got up in the air began tumbling. Pity scars still resting the safety crews are there attending to Richard Petty and obviously as soon as we get any word on his condition we will pass it along to you. Again the cars involved Richard Petty getting airborne for a second flipping down the middle of the racetrack Allen to Wiki involved in it any beer as well as a car that slammed into petty. The course it was not appears wall's fault at all or just no place to go with Richard bounced off the wall in right in front of the young driver. Phil black doll also involved in the crash and that is the situation here at Daytona right now. As we are under 107 laps completed under the caution for the moment let's go back to Jerry punch. We'll party drivers now you're just trying to get. Is trying to get the cars in and pitted we see very far. Ford coming by and it's. Has some damage to the front of the car most of the leaders were able to wind their way through or snake their way through that. That a debris up to the far end of pit road enough some of the cars pitting from the rough pit road toward that accident it is our colleague Dick Brooks stick. Well I'm down here pretty close to where it is and stand behind a wall I had to make it jump over that emotion for me not to go so. Can't really say exactly what's going on most of drivers are filled cartels out and walked away the fact he walked over to a couple of cars and look them. My wife says he's OK what's a driver throughout the cars they just got Richard out. And a women AM until now look in Indiana Jones and on a stretcher and taken toward the infield hospital. Richard has had some of his worst crashes here at Daytona took a hard liquor over in turn to a couple of years ago. He gets his hardest one that I have ever seen a long long time as he came out of turn number four and smacked into the outside retaining wall and again as we said as soon as we get a word on richards' condition. We'll pass along to you. The drivers that will be out of this event because of this accident any bears wall filled bark at all Allen who Wiki and Richard Petty. Other cars that went out a little earlier this afternoon if you just Joyner broadcaster. Why is also ran load times. Just an instance of pit row. And an autograph for fiscal Ford is smash bad in the front. He got out of the car and and got into an ambulance and got into a truck and if taken in the infield hospital all right. Brett O'Brien first drive for but more in the Crisco motor craft forward and he comes up short here this afternoon that had problems all week long we're just hoping to get out they talk. With a car in one piece and maybe have a good finish here this afternoon and kinda look forward to the rest of the season that Britain will find his car really smashed in he will go to the garage area also. As they came off turn number four there was Richard Petty and uptight draft with filled marked all and that it was marked balls aren't Richardson began spinning in different directions. As a matter of fact bark at all. Through the incident staring at Richard Petty is still scar angle that looking towards the Branstad. Others quickly made evasive maneuvers towards the inside a few of the other teams that were involved Eddie Beers wallboard dime Mallon called Wiki in particular. Found themselves close in behind the action and going across some of the debris which cut down their tires and rendered them unable to steer their automobiles. And that is how those trailing cars basically got involved in the accident. MRN's live coverage of the Daytona 500 if you are just two and again we are working what is now the fourth caution flag of the afternoon. Came out a couple of laps ago in an accident which involved Richard Petty still parked all album called Wiki Eddie Beers wall and Brett bold nine.

Although I'd like to get your report on exactly the condition of Richard Petty but I cannot the only indication that his faith while there is an indication as favorable that dale Inman turnaround. In looking towards the obviously concern group here gave us an old case I'm I'm not sure what that meant. Richard was on the stretcher and took him in the infield medical care center. Also involved an X that was AJ Foyt he's out of his car in the stormed off and some direction or other that he fears while you're in the hospital area they brought him in an ambulance but he did only walk through that torture running it Beckett walked out to talk to his wife so.

Many teams now electing to make their pit stops under this caution in the fourth in the afternoon involving Richard Petty and a handful of other drivers Richards cart taking some barrel rolls. Looking rather spectacular as it went let's go back towards the infield care center were Gary Montgomery his position any further work Garrick yes some of the member of the SEP racing team. I'm George glow in the truck drove an adjustment for Richard and it. And you were on the trek talking to Richard Reynolds earlier. We talked through just yet and he thought to estimate just took in the hospital took them over he's conscious. Your assessment is that it is okay. That's what villain until listens fine. That's great news think you're Muster more about his good news isn't it and George Orwell OC document that is a member of the crew the truck driver four wrote Richard Petty team. As he just report should they have talked to Richard and they cities conscious. So well from that standpoint the news is very very good but we are still working what is going to be a rather lengthy caution they have yet to. Pre movie Wayne's paging machine much heavy Beers wall scarred as being. Hooked up to the wrecker in the tri oval grassy portion of the racetrack and as you can well imagine a good bit of debris some fluid on the racetrack it's. There really wasn't a whole lot left the front of Richard Petty scar Barney but there from the firewall on back there well obviously it did its job. Obviously it did that roll cage and a safety. Measures that NASCAR requires again only this work we did that Richard Petty is conscious and apparently will be shaken up no question about that that. For everything we get from the field hockey field hospital feet useful. K we are now on lap 112. This in the aftermath of the accident involving Richard Petty Phil barker Paul Allen called Wiki. Eddie Beers wall Brett thought I had one other driver who was running well at the time that AJ Foyt he's in the garage area with Gary Montgomery. AJ first of all all your fans back at Texas. Around the world that you're okay that's Iverson finished her. While I'm fine you know resist that's racing just wanna miss part two things happen it just looked like we had a car looked up real good car really flying on the bottom racetrack and when I come up on the group it was just another car looks like it jerked it back can happen Richard you've got apt reminder amen. Posits that the wrong spot at the wrong time you've been there before which you've been on the other end of it as well that's exactly right you know my issue isn't 125 mile or minor damage and I just hope Richard I think he's okay and just glad that nobody reversers. Well we're not happy for that also sort of see out of its early well I guess they idea that early but you can always prevail on race cars. AJ Foyt out of that have no 500 they're still working up in the area where the crash occurred just a moment goes as we said it will be a fairly lengthy caution flag here before will be able to go back to green. Let's go back to the garage area Gary Montgomery with some of the other drivers who were involved in this accident. Only lie Phil barker told us walk by Cassidy was generating effective. Look over his car kitty here's Wallace now emerged from the hospital area and he is us or out of the TV people right now so while both drivers are okay. World record I'd still in the hospital but we understand is okay as well so we'll. You get up citizens again. So get an update from the garage area further as soon as we return we are still working caution lap number 113. Of 200 that make up the Daytona 500. From the Daytona International Speedway we of course have much more coverage let's go back downstairs. Well the Kodiak Pontiac Eli still want to know about rich and some of the fans that number of the cars that you mention that Barney hall mentioned were in the accident. Or there was one other cars were indirectly involved one of those of course being Rusty Wallace may have brought him down that road down the last four laps of Rolf. To try to repair the right rear of the car Kodiak panic it's been peeled away in the right side and they are trying to beat some achievement away other cars involved Bobby Nolan junior now Ron for your waiting for like carting them back down pit road. As Hilton's car has been left front grill away from it and the tide Chevrolet dale waltrip all the early leaders was brought down pit road at Jeff Hammond recruit Jack the car up. They'll they've only filled the thing dragging your serve pushing on the car jacked it up and it was a piece of we're all stuck underneath and I'd just like the way ahead or they feel that he's a girl's life. And there are a lot of normalizing the K okay for a number of cars innocently involved after the melee at the purple. If you just joined a broadcast we have been under caution here now for about ten minutes. When a clash coming out of turn over for the involved Richard Petty filled bark at all Alan Cole Wiki. Also Teddy bears wall and Brett O'Brien has. Kind of stopped everything for the moment pace car going airborne twisting around flipping a couple of times coming to rest bouncing out in the racetrack and then getting hit by Brett bode. The latest word we have from the infield care center apparently Richard is all right obviously going to be shaken up. And any further indication we get on to pay these conditions we'll certainly pass it along to you here as quickly as we can't. Still a great deal of time to go looks like before we'll go back to green let's go out. The garage area. I've got Phil Clark Dalton was the first man on the scene for your putting pressure filled first of all your okay yeah I'm all right sorry about that don't have when I take pictures to back years. That is our goal Ronan and I was on the back and and I take you in the back. And I Gaza you know started chain reaction what happened I'm not sure that's ultimately that's away remembers him. Even at a 190 that was they even has slowed down a few miles an hour with a 190 underneath whatever it is it all happens all the fast it goes by you know that you don't have a lot of time you know you travel quite a few feet protect and and and I was right behind him in his car to start tournament and by the time I let up on its side and Osama please be aware but I take it right back and if you would have stayed on that I did my car hit his car would not make it on any that I getting turned around backwards. Well Arizona governor Phil barker on the Daytona 500. Boy it was the worst crash we have seen at Daytona in a long long time still going to be a while before they'll be able to go back to green. There have been an awful lot of cars ducking in and off pit road that ran through that accident up there. That might cut down tires or had some metal get a bit up in the cars at Jerry punch and Dick Brooks have talked about. And we'll take one more break in the will. But not to cut you off what we have just gotten word go through Larry Pulaski here at the track they've taken Richard Petty to Halifax memorial hospital. Which is basically good fastballs throw from this racetracks we might well already be there just down the block and we will of course have an update there from Halifax as quickly as we can't. Let's stick Brooks I'm down in in a Verizon and is caught up with dale Inman a crew chief and and cousin in a long time buddy Richard what's happened. Well it degrades the hospital now make noise made even a saint to thank you might spend the night but PRD's cycle pretty bad his left ankle against. And that it might be. Tractor. But no compound fracture or nothing like that and they had a neck brace zoning but I don't like is not always neck and I'm sure that the real sore. That day he raised about and make birdies smallest. No word things just about dead and he won in the war against Al that is going to allow Iraq in the what part of racetrack and stop them they're not only that some. I'm sure we'll sort fervently. But he seemed to me is conscious and he's conscious alert he noted he knows who was even. You know he was flippant and in home all right Karzai concerned that he is let his ankle was sore. Okay well. We'll be following pretty close tonight and hamsters OK just we get a lot of reports of them. The tape Barney and I flipped 116 times one time talent thing and I know what it feels like that was conscious all the way through it. And now the first thing you wanna know is where you stop. No it was a spectacular crash Richard Petty hopefully they injuries that he suffered will be minor and we'll update you throughout the afternoon from the Daytona International Speedway this is MR and the motor racing network this is a power. This freedom. This is tradition. Are saying this is being who you were meant to be. This is more than a race. You see is Talladega. It may fifth through seven. Calling 77. Well our maps set to get out of Harrell can there with the implication of one to go as the field comes back to the stripe here at Daytona International Speedway. Average speed of just prior to the caution was 155. Point 507 miles an hour. Average speed at this moment this would shave under 135. Miles an hour losing twenty miles an hour on the average do between the content. Let's take you all the way back to what you know how your favorite drivers running at this point. Can issue later. Is currently showing that app a point of course they have shuffle things up now that he has just that it took this is just prior to moments ago. Phil Parsons was about point in the second spot. Running in the third position just moments ago before pit stop with Bobby Allison. Dale Earnhardt and Harry Gant runner up top five neo bonnet who was at this moment in third was showing its sixth at this most recent run down. Just put dime Bill Elliott Davey Allison and Dale Jarrett that was the top ten. In the eleventh spot was to remove a body Darrell Waltrip was twelve. Thirteen Buddy Baker fourteenth Bobby Helen. Fifteenth is Ricky Rudd sixteenth as Rick Wilson seventeenth Sterling Marlin and Rusty Wallace the whole crew there keeping him on the lead lap at the eighteenth position. One lap down on my team is Brad Teague. Two laps to action we also one lap down and twentieth spot Trevor boyish 21 Kyle Petty 22 Benny Parsons. Two laps down at 23 Dave Marcus also two laps down at 24 Michael Waltrip. Three laps down at 25 this Derrick cope. Four laps down 26 father Steve Moore five laps down at 27 things at him. Eight laps down we've got Jimmy means Ralph Jones fourteen laps down eighty Beers wall who has just returned and Rick Jeffrey after a lengthy stay in the garage area are early is running 31 right now some 21 laps in arrears. The Pontiac pace car's about to get on the pit road we'll go back to racing here after a very lengthy caution flag lap 126 is on the board. 200 will make up the Daytona 500 this afternoon Phil Parsons is your leader Harry can't sit right behind him then he'll bonnet Jeff Levine and Bill Elliott. Along with a Ricky Rudd Sterling Marlin Bobby Allison and Dale Earnhardt no shortage of competition at the front of the field that's for sure. They're down to the dogleg part of the Daytona International Speedway Carol candor waves the green you can bet they're already to go racing. Coming up through that gearbox in a hurry as Phil Parsons he gets a good jump on this restart. And we'll pull away by some eight or ten car lengths on Harry Gant and the rest of the field as they hit turn one. Bill Parsons late about the banking of turn number one Harry Gant and having a little little trouble as some of the lap cars and he's trying to work around those machines now in third spot a steel bought it for this Jeff both died. Fifth this bill Elliott's six now as Rickie relatively flat. Lot of shuffling going on it is Phil Parsons at the head of the class Terry get behind a lack guard's second spot a couple of cars looking inside. Parsons shifted sides cover boys goes behind him to get back on the lead lap they'll find it. To the bottom of the racetrack Bill Parcells who get shuffled back and other capital positions but right now at the bottom of the racetrack it's Bobby Allison moving underneath that set up our. So Bobby Allison picking right back debris left off prior to that caution flag he looks to make it three Y eighty dollars of the trial wolf talks to the inside of Pope John. Codeine Phil Parsons. Bobby Allison on the move while they mix it up there the points for the week meanwhile the bottle back it is Harry Gant telling the lake and Neil bottom now as the dog the dance rear deck. Let's read a lot of former draft all the top slot of the racetrack around the Trevor boys guard goes deal bought it. Volley Allison make it three wide of the bikes right. Alex it's as I've gone about myself he's got Trevor boys in the middle boys go globe Allison swings by him the freight train is up topic Terry can't feel fine. Battle up front for the bottom of the racetrack the L bonnet taking up ball died wet somebody Allison is right there we got to do lead lap turn partly about you earlier but not as sexy body has been so close to winning the Daytona 500 he could taste it he sure wants it here this afternoon as he pulls ahead of the pack. Taking Jeff Levine right winning Harry Gant has his hands full with Bobby Allison trying to get underneath him. And take over the number three position and turn one. That battle is for the third spot with a volley Allison on the inside of Perry can't. Bob able to out do away with can't pick up the third spot and right behind the good battle Taylor the hardest ticket isn't above the racetrack getting her. Our heart and Eliot door to door and editor Colin. Food decked out dubbed spanning all of the banking look at the car about two time. I'm just three other cars now they get to the seed in the area and go quickly lose its guard down the inside they put the track. And he is rolling back what's the grassy area. There is no caution yet shown although cope now comes back up on the racetrack loops and again on the back straightaway and pulls towards the grass that is going to bring out the caution. Here come the leaders back to the strike could be caution flag number five in the afternoon. Neil Monica will leave gentle giant Bobby Allison Dale Earnhardt and Harry can't back across the stripe on lap number 120. Caution flag number five as Derrick cope spot in the carnage from all the Joseph Moore looked as though it was going to be able to save it but not quite. It's a real serious sadly probably live once he did get the cars right now even what's he slowed and it dropped out of the ball the racetrack it is still. It's either go to the strike direction. Finally did get it slowed down enough of these but the fact LT eight reports of that area thirty cars to the green flag on the restart your moment ago thirty cars are still in competition in the Daytona 500. One of the most famous sponsors probably over the years you look back to a few years ago is pure later. Until the heyday of David Pearson's fine running up here later back on the side of Derrick cope scar here for the Daytona 500 have come about their. When they decided that they felt like it was. The best marketing avenues for them again. This company was bought out by asset. And they've got some young very aggressive types in their now and no one Gelman Carol Warner the president from the floor and he felt like it was a good avenue for them then and he was thought they got out and we just talked earlier this past winner and some writing in November Carolina on the premier tells and we sat down and I left there with a decision that day. And it's only go up by a team in a little race and no whole relationship so far has been on the very positive note they're very excited and now I think we're you know we're looking forward to is consistency this year. I think it's notable thing grows into a long. Vick Brooks took so it is quite right I'm biased pit stall where. Well I did Betty just came down like he was gonna go first and drive here and just drove right on by. Any early wave too much he was he was working at the steering wheel summit he went by so. Evidently there's no brakes on the car there they're talking about that right now. The destruction might wanna jump up front Derrick Pope start out slow it down there. While we're just talking about three people stand here decide which one was gonna do what made it they'll figure this thing in my belly was who dared explore obsolete Hollywood good stuff. But he does have a they say maybe they and are part broken up and are far. Is that piece that are there holes there and in line with the frame across the back and think that may Brooklyn causing spend. And and he doesn't he has lost his brakes so they don't know what caused that. Getting ready to go back to green at Daytona these drivers are ready to do some racing after riding around here for about the last 025 or so laps after that serious crash by Richard table we go again the latest report we have from Halifax memorial hospital Richard is alert and conscious. And you heard his crew members talking earlier in the Roger that to think he's going to be all right if we get any further word we'll pass it along to you. 132. Laps are on the border getting ready to go back to green as the Pontiac place target trinity hit rope they're up hit pit road they're up in turn four. Neil bonnet in line all the time that is what I'd be kind of the Levi Garrett Chevrolet Bobby Allison. Dale Earnhardt and Harry can't that's how they'll start here single file of the smaller cars out audience. Bobby Allison sitting right back there and you'll go after Neil bonnet in a hurry if he can dispense with Jeff bovine the tip today on that. Restart has been who can come up through that transmission gearbox which is to break away from the field are under green if they get back in the turn of want and kneel on it doesn't shake anybody. Jeff Iran hangs onto him Bobby Allison doesn't back in the west and the racetrack. They know what it's got his hands bulls like 1131 degree banking a slower car delving inside is not letting bottom get a life and that is not helping Jeff but not a bit but the hottest act like the bottom thread. They all the top slot the racetrack it 35 yeah. Our tail bonnet yet what I continue to set the pace couple a lap cars stayed right with the lead pack if they arrow down the back straightaway. Deal might still look ahead at a glance what my body could Baylor. Deal bought it takes the freight train up but it turns brave honest Trevor boys who is battling to try to get back on the lead lap right now he's running a lap out. Going along with them will be filed that he. This time Jeff Conine has to stay in line as the lead cars worked around the Trevor boys and Kyle Petty machine. Back to the stripe meal product. He leaves the parade of want to win this would be reveal what they can hang on but still a lot of racing at the golf as he battles back from an injury in late October of last year that I can want it. Still double live among the flip through rose deal Bonneville high slot the banking is showing the way it still jet but I'm holds off of the second spot it still looks and lapped car struck a boy to. Hope it's tough. The racetrack boys and petty trying to gain on lap back and steel body continues to set the pace everyone else content derided his wake at the moment Jeff what I watch TK through second body out of today. Lot of pulls up piled up 31 the great backing taking both died with them. Why Scott and behind the slower car. Bobby Allison up the third dale Barnhart is import single file and come out of terminal four at work back to the start finish line there's an inside line of cars linked up in the draft trying to stay with the front running pack but they're dropping back. This of course and they were back in the turnover one Trevor boys is losing ground soul is Kyle Petty. But more cars rolled together a single file to go back to turn over one that is deal bonnet killing the weight right behind his death quote I'm closely and even more so a third. Is the Bobby Allison guarded court. Bill Elliott sitting back in seventh spot and Elliott has been slowly slowly slowly work its way toward the front now go to the front by Bobby Allison as they get two or three Alison has picked up. Nice book by Bobby Allison going underneath you'll pick they aren't aren't a lot ripped up out of center reps I have a blanket are not votes underneath the ballots that a second to dale. There aren't staying glued to the low side of the racetrack further back three wide off turn number four Darrell Waltrip picking his way back to the point. As Rick Benjamin mention Bill Elliott is on the move the battle for second now behind Neil product. Dale Earnhardt just does not job Bobby Allison by half Carly despite their back to turn. One Allison battles back behind slap the racetrack in great thanks that second spot now dale earnhardt's hitters up the racetrack just a bit quiet behind Evans Jeff both diet. They're chasing big bottles. That's right away. Chronic continuing to hold sway Earnhardt takes a look it's not hasn't got anything there's a heel state third behind Bobby Allison news second boat ride his fourth carry gas tank interrupted there. Earnhardt closing off the front two interns ray bought it still leads that Bobby Allison again drifting upward arc to the inside the diet drugs in port. Kerry can't back at that. This place is. Bobby Allison gets the lead as they hit turn one Allison went badly inside a deal bottom made a nice Luke Massa valve does behind him. Dale Earnhardt does the same thing probably bought it back the third states are starting to look as they did dead many many laps ago Bobby Allison already starting to stretch the advantage over Baylor guard. Three car like sport spot that you upload I'd kept the scant six coming. Lot of it making a though they brought her heart but it is still aren't aren't pulling out of that second place possession yield dropped to the bottom of the racetrack again. Bobby Allison still leads our artists like about it. What I'm sports. Then comes Harry Gant Bill Elliott and Davey Allison of the single file all the way back until Darrell Waltrip who talks out of line. Picking up possession receiver Kenny schrader trying to work for the inside of Phil Parsons at the strength but the front doesn't single file back to one good battle last time through this at the speedway for the six spot between the ports of Bill Elliott. Bill is now in six and Davey Allison who is at the seventh position. I can't have it turned loose baby looks battled inside the belly. Elliott out hi Alison baby is down low like Davy allison's by himself he's gonna try to hang out of the brought back. So far he's got a lot of success working is alongside a badly as they battle for. Side by side a freight train can't turn a number three I data Bobby Allison wraps up hot. Heard aren't bush the bottom of the racetrack but it is right there at third but I just thought Harry yeah. And Darrell Waltrip continues to pick his way to the front although he's out there all by himself for that low line right now with no wonder draft with whom nobody has moved up to about. You or eleventh position he's down underneath Rusty Wallace trying to work his way up to the front of the pack he still got a long ways to go from Daytona International Speedway this is an Arian the most. It's a new era of NASCAR excitement they absolutely a joy look. Welcome monster energy NASCAR cup series ring no table like form featuring the world's best drive.

Have a Daytona International Speedway live coverage of the Daytona 500 continuing with sixty laps remaining Bobby Allison does the race leader. Dale Earnhardt is second third is meal bottom now its bottom and heard art a couple of hunting buddies who hooked up together to the low side of the racetrack they'll try and bypassed Bobby Allison coming to the stripe. Let's see if the draft works Bernhard gets out there and all the sudden the Obama touched Beckett has that you own your own but then at the start finish line he changes his mind he's gonna help Barnhart why isn't gonna help but he's doing police himself as Neil bonnet stacks them three deep down in turn one bell above the racetrack it's steel body heat and our heart Michael White alpha Bobby Allison and it side by side for the lead coming into the banking. It looks like they and it took beta male bought it come off the bottom. My head lower and are tied now learned has Bobby Allison on his back bumper they hook up but they're out at times out of the racetrack. Nose to nose spotted having inside or not on the outside Allison at third but I have four side by side and very brave they're still dogged. That door panel heard aren't up my bonnet not a solo side Bobby Allison running third but at this point that is why it took me inside. He's in fifth place Darrell Waltrip is coming to the inside of Davey allison's Ford Thunderbird. Now that battle was ongoing sold to the one for the lead or their photo finish had this been the last lap Neal Pollack still working inside of Taylor and it goes down. What took three wide for the lead but. And runs like double file to go back in the third one and Darrell Waltrip breaks out the putt. Down the inside wanted your new leader coming off their network to get in the backs right away now Walton. Second is Dale Earnhardt Walter just to the low side motor by everybody is starting to stretch it out already earned our right behind him. Make your city gets second spot look up look. I'm running freight cars put a little background of the fourth place car up the body to why it took nearly there but breaker right there at second Dale Earnhardt is third one. How strong is Darrell Waltrip to give an indication when they put them under green here's some laps ago Walter had about twenty cars in front of him and now he gets past everybody and taken the lead in the Daytona 500. Paula back in the water waltrip and Bobby Allison have been the cream of the crop all week long that can't they win it they hit the banking in the west into the crack one more time but wait. Got a breakaway led by Darrell Waltrip Buddy Baker sit in the second spot Dale Earnhardt is third watch box out and fourth spot calling back to steal my body. Also the fifth top five pulling away you gotta like the right turned in by Buddy Baker here baker quietly had stayed with the leaders tried to jump we've second he's about a apparently behind wallpaper. Great the front line won't drop money maker mailer aren't nailed plotted and Bobby Allison walker. Baker who runs a little higher up the banking and waltrip what he's familiarly. Jerry punch you've been down there on the well again. The field as a available that's where everything happened need to go ahead push the button and get up front of them but there were bodies your feet. Feel volatility and they're very impressed here he's moved the car forward Jeff Hammond and Jeff and they totally get it out of the back of the field all the cars working like that category two down deeply he went up front of her. Syria today this I'm kind of speechless right now never enjoyed las. It's Florida. Because there are a lot of is driving like that bear walked involved and we've got us team here that. I don't know I like go to the front we got one motto this year we got to win and that's what we're we're we're trying to do that to date of the good lord's will that we will. I'm so proud of Darryl Soledad right now this about the best. When they'll take the lead you with the police the site and you don't yet know there was definitely felt good jumping jacks. Well they should jump up and down when you accomplish what walker has here with a play the field has been running all day. You kind of shown everybody else out there that you may well indeed be the man to beat walker takes a minute turned over to. Eight cars all stacked up together as they come off sort of repeat. Chasing Darrell Waltrip now backs right away. Good battle parade carried the body gone had a camera Dodd's Bill Elliott is back there Davey Allison to Allison right now had severed my body in shape Bill Elliott if I could break. Won't drop black top black violence calls the front wheels they sit in the lead draft. Buddy Baker if Zach and Dale Earnhardt certainly a lot of it is what Bobby Allison bit. Earlier Davey Allison passed Bill Elliott to the low side of the track most recently makes a pass to the high side of the racetrack. Two babies are working awfully well those leaders are back with a strike it is a tight five Kart track that a car late night. I'm perform more automobiles that a second lap for a second back patients they contend more cars deal but it looks down the inside of his fourth position on the racetrack and cut back in line there's little while except for the battle for his six. It's not a big step foot on. Nobody all by itself noted draft with a battling with the night out the back straightaway try to wrestle six the wave of the former 500 but it can't do it. Nobody will be shuffled off. Kelly at wolf both had a lot plotting a seat at the last car hit the front row for the holiday. While drops failure leader Bonnie bacon right errant second and outfield but those 35. Sure these plans are in shock this afternoon they have seen a little bit of everything at Daytona including some of the best racing here in a lot of years while for. Whistles five play maker hangs on to a new product hangs on to it. He was able to come to the front but he has not been able to shake anyone that's as far as it goes a vacuum water. Bobby Allison all the little doubting it's not a deal out of the car bikes once he lied to capitalize on the racetrack loses some three spots now it's maybe. But I don't mind. Davey Allison does the low side gets by data takes over 56 figure later Darrell Waltrip finished second it's still Buddy Baker deal bought it. Not running three cars open up some room on the fourth place car at Baylor heart waltrip your later pairs but a bigger deal trying to belittle. Hi Eric Burke park built wanted to. Eric Earnhardt for. Party were just saying up here in the Booth there is no effect. Escaping experience. That's exactly what helped save that car for Bobby Allison up there in turn number two's a car tried to break loose leaf cars working around some of the slower machines here at Daytona. Davey Allison is on the move trying to pick himself back towards the point chasing down Darrell Waltrip. Even on this very first race of the year you wonder how important the Winston cup point championship is Alan Kuwait he just now. Returning after stay in the garage area he was one of those involved in the accident Witten with Jim Richard Petty was shell also part. That came on lap 106 we are now on lap 151 but a Wiki is coming back to run the final 49 lap. She had a report from Halifax memorial hospital that you're a little bit on Richard Petty is conditioned. Mr. Graham Nolan who is the PR director out there since they're running test on the hey this redness and swelling he's wide awake laughing joking with the nurses that's good news here. They'll admit him overnight for some more tests tomorrow we were. Reports that he did blackout as he was leaving the racetrack but seems okay now so Richard Petty who has a it's tough when he's been seasonable spectacular crashes over the years he took that drive before he did at pocono we did at Darlington, South Carolina almost any track that you wanna mention. And one time and he's bounced off the walls but he'll be back it's a pity smiles Sony's kept verses old left all handled right now. Well actually it's that he was pitching nurses that we just cannot connect up. I'm sure you let us hope he's going to be great I'm sure a 162. Laps are on board looks like that 152 was a come out the corner. Buddy Baker along with the Dale Earnhardt bouncing their way off one another through the tri oval area they're running side by side for second spot. Chasing down Darrell Waltrip Walter taking down extra Carly third tour of an advantage as we're gonna baker battled back from a corner good battle they'll be inside the racetrack it's Dale Earnhardt underneath Buddy Baker and they are saying side by side coming back to return to. Why qualified as. This Davey Allison haven't heard much of Baylor heart and awhile but he says maybe it's time to try to go to the. I gotta go three lighter body else that hey I got inside of the thank you. Out of grad second spot going online courageous vote by Bobby Allison Atlanta snack or why did you move up the second he'll bring big. A weapon at a third Bernhard runs well at the. They press staff these plans have been stunned all afternoon it was continue to be lap after lap you think you've seen everything but it's still a long ways to go and we have seen nothing yet apparently from the way they're gonna finish the Daytona 500. Earnhardt drops back a little bit he has a couple of cars putting some heat on him as he gets back into the number one term. Darrell Waltrip joint like plummeted 31 degree banking of turn number one to two now Bobby Allison writes why do some great comics back third is Dave yeah. A good side by side back. This spot Bonnie bank revealed what the the back straightaway but they think you've got a lot of mileage left in a race Bobby Allison says I want the front back theory goes by Darrell Waltrip on the inside Bobby Allison introduce later. Walt drop back and Alison sandwich and it turned break Bobby Allison and your leader waltrip with a lot of the racetrack parents third place driver baby out of set up the high side. He looks to be outside of Darrell Waltrip can't grab second spot away meanwhile the final three of pulled off quite some five correlates of Dale Earnhardt but they are not trying to turn up the wind just event he has pulled away by four car lands a mile upon them Buddy Baker. But the point three single file back to turn one. Bobby Allison leaps. Allison joined the land of Miller Buick he goes wild racetrack it Darrell Waltrip we'll try to fill the spot going down alongside its Davey Allison sitting right behind them watching. Slick comes out the same body. So please Darryl waltrip Davey Allison perhaps looking to go inside of Bobby Allison beleaguered everyone's states instead single file turn artist more guarded or prevent feel bottom. Inside what. Looking very strong Bobby Allison leads the front Brooke looked great cars waltrip right there at second Davey Allison third. Dale Earnhardt is fourth Buddy Baker. This battle on the racetrack right now will be back for fifth position it has been the last two or three laps around again it's hard to decide whether to watch the battle for the lead at one for fifth. Currently holding on the fifth Buddy Baker takes away from the Obama and Bill Elliott is right in that packet traffic single file they tucked in turn one. They're the body is also there as well as Jeff but not as they go single file next deadline was still a Bollenbach. Did traders there and Rusty Wallace and straighter and Wallace stood out of the bottom right back for later on draft trying to pick up to fly. Things have quieted down a little still Bobby Allison Darrell Waltrip Davey Allison did they learn art it for a long way back to fifth but Buddy Baker hold down fifth spot right now. Being challenged by Dubai. Bonnet market got baker for that fifth place that they say they're trying to bring that freight train of cars out on that bailed heard a hard for the fourth place but listen Bobby allison's brilliant leaders. Bobby Allison with a third place finish in the Busch clash a win in his qualifier on Thursday a win here yesterday in the city's 300 and now leading the Daytona 500. Darrell Waltrip who's in second won his qualifying race here on Thursday and Davey Allison is in third story on the outside of row number one after a second place finish in the clash. The cream rising to the top here in the latter stages of Daytona 500 the leaders worked off turn over to Jason Bobby Allison. It's Bobby Allison still out in front waltrip whose second navy analyst at third Dale Earnhardt now has a race under its chance report. Buddy Baker to come and Adam art baker looking to the inside of their race for fourth spot takeover. Baker making a road block heard hard into turn three laps at the bottom of the racetrack Earnhardt dressed up wolf big earth along side their side by side of the court. That links back to the start finish line for that position Buddy Baker hangs on to blow part of the racetrack the fans jumped to their feet Earnhardt takes the outside groove. Around it'll be a dead heat at the start finish line for that spot. Hasn't hit back in the turn of what looks like you're gonna race that way all the way around the speedway it has been a barn burner all day long as. Bobby Allison continues to dominate here at this stage of the race Darrell Waltrip has just dropped back to the number three position.

Back review of the Daytona International Speedway we are forty laps and remaining from the end of the Daytona 500. Harry Gant is on pit road for service from Travis Carter and that crew Benny Parsons in the bullseye barbecue sauce court slow on the back straightaway going into turn number three. And Jerry punch at this point we are obviously closing on the start of the green flag pit stops. Most of the coming up in a final effort to look back Bobby Allison through now I don't. Bobby is it makes a move coming return portfolio to make the hard left turn. Scampering down pit road and the board room like it's run forty below. For Alison as they bring the carnal hall apparently I would just add fuel all. Only notified. For the ethanol fuel the car waiting we have a flock to. 78. Why can't field Alley and extravagant all the fuel it give the cards next little while you have a lot of car rolling down twelve seconds of that there's about a won't put you would have thought that would everything. Down the line. Bobby Allison goes back out of the racetrack that is going to be all by himself out there that doesn't appears any traffic close body can draft on other than some of the cars that are coming down through. Turn four and back the start finish line. So Allison for the most part we'll have to chase down the front runners by himself depending on how these pit stops working out of the. As they work back across the start finish line Davey Allison there. It's still linked together in the draft at the front of the pack Kerry can't make a stop here just a moment ago here come more cars on the pit road her hardest and Bill Elliott and Jeff pulled out of school. It's. For a while ago. Think you're women you're about thirteen second thoughts. I would've been just letting go. Jerry punch. Same thing down your fuel mileage very important deadlines are coming down get a feel likewise Bill Elliott memorable about a year ago would make the call he tried to stretch it could buy into the that the for the Kevin good provides. Thirteen and half second to get all the feelings get in the car. So when I was on pit road as was Bill Elliott and now moving out there. Davey Allison comes and stops are gonna do right side tires and it may have well left. Right side they added Jack Kennedy stuff they checked them. Decided not to do tired or just look and feel and he's away and eleven seconds. Now Betty peeling off turn before and coming out of pit road. And that we like always in the past I think for the last ten years every time caution everything comes out and make a pit stop with this long to run a race for the short track or a super speedway like they talk. We usually see at least a couple of tire changes quietly not doing that today. Well again extremely long. Why are tired. Here may have anticipated. Another tire company and I'm sure they did and they had done. We'll work extra research on on retired and they've got tired and and very extremely cold temperatures 24050 degrees which is extremely cool race after. And then not having trouble. I have 89 miles with a but no trouble. The hoses are doing exactly the same the upon the rental rather mild on his. And stuff that have been times where. There's really no reason change of other than the fact what I said earlier about picking up something on down that row or wherever where that group has not been racetrack there's trash. And if you got a tire that's hot intensity picked it up more than anything else. One thing that's big in racing anymore we talked about you have to stay in the draft. They were sort are not gonna do any good the next thing is getting in and out off pit road it's very very critical. The cars. A little bit higher first here a bit higher unload your the first unitarian and then and Iran open rear ends because of all the very best grade. Very fast track on the racetrack. So they are an open air. Now so critical and so important to get off pit row at their run and ranches are longer holds gears when you start full forward. Both rear wheels locked up like fractures do. And both will fall of one thing it did happen. Davey Allison left right in front of me just like district that is just a minute ago. He made a good fans stop and he started out of their row and he left the right side right rear. I had a better better fit as he went by me it was bad in and out of gas trying to get that tired look back and ground. And he lost an awful lot of valuable. When he came in and pitted they drop the camera away one. That's very very critical. That's what everybody is saying that this race could easily be won and lost on pit road. Today by exactly what you're talking about there Betty Parsons out of the race let's if you get a word for help. Evidently Garrett Montgomery still checking with Benny who took the poolside barbecue sauce machine to the garage area. We'll get an update for mayor just a moment or so. 167. Laps or on the board 200 make up today's running of the Daytona 500. Darrell Waltrip coming off turn number four that day glow orange tie ride for Darrell Waltrip. Buddy Baker Neil bombing Rusty Wallace Kenny schrader there the drivers currently on the leaderboard ahead of Terry Aponte then Sterling Marlin. Rick Wilson they've had a long week chemical backup car after an accident earlier in the week and then Bobby Taylor junior year come the only product and Buddy Baker to the Fed's first Dick Brooks. Event the next. From the right side tires even took matters I'm good. They're not gonna you. Using marijuana got a feeling helpless feeling go away. They're out of sync. Along there and ran 10 o'clock I'm. Anybody else do one thing he may be able. After having topping things off when they commit a 165 or so there. Finds out he doesn't have any draft he's probably. Mockingbird area. And Betty if you 170. One tank of fuel he can make a 72 stop instead of the 1213 second stop and he's a laid back yet. Betty Parsons the latest driver to go to the garage area this afternoon let's see if you're Montgomery has finally caught up put it. I thought a couple of them are part of the problem thinking of it so quietly I didn't know it was coming in are you didn't not sure everything. No the engine was not running so I was making a lot of noise tonight even in. Oh what did happen in the well today a lot. We've been down there shooting people love this sport. Of that forgive her sponsors. Within Jimmy to bullseye when this sport for two weeks and we just have never even gotten close. We had to miss yesterday afternoon which we change vineyards trying to clear it did not fix it. And about oil laps ago I lost couples owners and then finally it just this start smoking badly enough building they remodeled. With an uphill battle all they have is their way in the back of course and a it was moving through a reasonably well despite the you know I could just. Work to draft try to catch on to some of the MasterCard elected you know there's not keep up with a good knowledge of fallen. You'll have another chance. But let's go to Richmond sake folks I'll do it here they come on to Richmond last week mr. Imus pulled up are you were there on that positive model better. Many parts of the tibia Richmond next week Bobby Allison and Davey Allison hooking up with a tight two car draft they are currently running third and fourth. But the teams directly ahead of them Darrell Waltrip grand jury look money should be coming into the pit stops here as a matter of fact come to a party right now it off turn them report to rule of the crew standing by Dick Brooks. Thanksgiving is fast thinking and because they've been run out there by yourself well while this stuff is very winning. Gas up. I don't want anything. Make up about half that came in and now one thing I said earlier about having Iraqis clear and when they dropped the hammer and I think he took off. Nobody is going back out of the speedway is still a couple of front runners to make that pit stop and walker Jerry punch is getting phenomenal gas mileage absolutely Barney he pitted on lap 120 wanted to take the hottest comics lap 174. I'm 53 laps biggest problems start baseline he has got things running on the field right now Jeff Campbell and a crew getting right to call event next time bother tables have turned around and take. He will be coming down that road. My power lines warm clothes they brought our high gas cans. Not only thief running to put it in the car with 25 laps to go. There won't become the next boxes sent the other day in the qualifying races that a couple of cars ran well over 130 miles on a tank of fuel so. Looks like they're gonna run even further than that here today waltrip will give up the lead here he comes off turn to perform for his final pit stop assuming this race would stay green. Let's all that stuff that he is on pit road. Jerry punch critical final stop for Darrell Waltrip coming down trying to pick up their first ever win an additional 500 and you felt the war always put the watch is going the car now stopped Mike Powell. Slam cup run. It's tied feels that the car. They're pushing leading on the car the Prudhoe running up for the first thought the puts the car away ticket can go all you want to fell down ten point 88 seconds the car. Back to Harry can't split off the dragon but aren't going sideways and backed that Obama lacks the way that turned back around the front end hits the wall all the cars go badly and. Inside the racetrack. No one else so far involved as dance bars it went down the back straightaway. It put us under caution the caution is on the racetrack and I'll let strategy that we talked about they go out the window because we could see everyone back on pit road and possibly we might not. But Harry Gant stars come to rest just off turnover too we see at firing now let's go back to Joseph Moore got caught. But loose all by itself Bonnie coming up the bank because further pursuit. He slid sideways down the banking about halfway down the back straightaway before finally the rear and collided with the outside retaining wall the car spun around then the flooding and hit the wall and get miraculously as required the car. And his slipping back towards the fence. I can't have a lot to smile about today he's been up and up front pack all afternoon after probably the most dismal season in 1987 when he's had in his entire career had a good shot to win this thing. But right now problems have befallen the stove and a car Harry can't. Here comes Darrell Waltrip on the pit road again let's selected Jerry punch. Rather than put tires on this time and he will be followed down that road by a number of cars next time buys all the crews are planning their final stops to get rubber here's Walt event. And we'll go live sound of the cars put tires on the car Bobby Allison writes the Miller bill against Iran they'll learn. Heart further up you go here's Rusty Wallace the Kodiak Claudia. Bill Elliot plays the course mode of travel forward the Jack things went around eleven bottled water from the car Jeff Hammond of the pros very report tires. Here is Neil one of the probably Pontiac but made fun efforts for Sterling Marlin. Michael Waltrip and everyone and welcome but let let's talk for. He's funny about it David Alan will be down that road let's go to that Brooks. When the first one out down there it was the third one and number one now he's put forth back on his. The money. Israelis and yeah he. About the same time mr. Obama did at Portland his car and he was gone the at Kodak number four car. Rick wells. Is that the right for him to come in point six car. Ricky reticent and put them right side tires and just aren't coming up with fuel they're gonna go to the left side with him tournament. You should be the final pit stops of the day and boy has it set up to finish for the Daytona 500 everybody with fresh rubber on the machines and a full tank of fuel to get edit and settled at Daytona 50177. Laps or complete let's if we get workers. Harry we've got hearing hearings just to spotted from the number thirty threes Golkar and periodic a great ride while it lasted but unfortunately it solvent up right now. Yeah just. I don't know was a little bit loose Paula you know about a little bit but it has picked we're wheels left when we will of course did fit or. Either blue carpet but we have his turnaround for the film grease. You've got to feel good but despite this unfortunate finish Urlacher finished because the car really was working while you were in the hunt for the win. Yeah we this what's more extreme no no adjustment in the I guess we got it to neutralize them there. Definitive way of pressure to slip through route forward who feel fully scored by having real close and we were trying to get OT OK don't other cars. Solano listed looked ourselves not only thought is lifted off the ground are lawn care again abilities on 500. Harry still has a lot to smile about that team seems to been turned around here at Daytona is going in the right direction 178 laps or down don't go away from the Daytona International Speedway this is MR and the motor racing network. Why sports are the one true reality entertainment where a single dramatic moment can become prime. In NASCAR motor racing network live broadcast elevate your senses of the sights sounds and struggles taking place on the racetrack one final lap of the state. Joseph McDonald at that point you'll hear Walters over the power of radios for the imagination of the listener. And for the motor racing network and visit Ameren dot com for an affiliate let's get your local area. Fertility caught. At the Daytona International Speedway so pick a number get your bets down isn't going to be settled here very shortly the feel comes down in front of Harold candor he looks them over and then gets no indication that they'll go back to green this turnaround is still cleaning up a Paterno before. Here's the way they're running the leader is Phil Parsons he has never won the Daytona 500 riding second Davey Allison he has never won the Daytona 500. Darrell Waltrip is third he's been coming here since about 1976. He's won everything you can win at Daytona 500. And he wants one fan really plan he put his feelings in your perspective the other day. About having never won the Daytona 500 in his career. I have soon you know I've noticed a long time. Not a sin since I've never won here this must be like playing a golf course to become the number one any given you never barred him. I guess this would be my number one handicap low right here. I've had some good luck here and some good runs and had some good finishes his surprise myself but did not get up they can guard that wasn't really running neck Gooden. Millionaire got good finishes. I'm not discouraged I'm not disappointed I'm just anxious to win this race how long awaited as badly as anybody to ever come here wants to win. And he sent a good position maybe to do with this afternoon behind walker is Bobby Allison he has won the 500 twice in his career. Buddy Baker has won the race you won in 1980 after coming here are some seventeen or eighteen years to put himself and Victory Lane. Dale Earnhardt had a couple close ones get away up there. He's in the top six he has never won here at Daytona Terrill Bonnie has never won a Daytona 500 neither has Kenny straighter are Sterling Marlin that's the top nine. Course Davey Allison is right now very much in the hunt showing in the second spot on the scoreboard. His plans are very well defined for 1988. We're gonna go over championship and we think we've got a really strong chance that winner. And in light of the way they re wrote the record books for the rookies on the Winston cup tour a year ago. And there's really nobody doesn't like grounds to doubt what Davey Allison has just said. It was one thing brought you and I've seen that we work you're closer with the drivers all week in the garage area talking and spending time around their race cars. But there's not much different side to the drivers and a lot of the folks don't see throughout. All the speed weeks so many different charity events the drivers went bowling for charity the other day there was a charity fashion show in the middle of the week. And Jerry punch you know you were talking live just quote I'm earlier today about a very special project he's been involved with the this morning but the youngster from Worcester Massachusetts who's with us today. There was Eli there's just the group called friends of special. Family Foundation. Young eleven year old boy and enriching Keith you have me up. A waste to come and meet Jeff Conine is that in this race card here on the biggest day of the year for Winston cup stock car driver in the biggest event of the season. Jeff Conine and the rest of that Levi Garrett from took time out to me young which he keys in the making yourself. His wish come true and they put him in a race car this morning in the heat of all there to try and prepare the car at the last minute they talk to Raymond it made a special day for him and it was a very very special day for Jeff wood out of the rest of their crew. This so this young man volley from Worcester Massachusetts came down here to make this wish come true thanks to the friends are special family's foundation and I tell you it touched a lot of us here a pit road. That is the nature of most of these drivers they do a lot of worthwhile things and they don't ever play it up they don't really particularly want anybody to know what they do but any time they're asked for help almost ending any situation they'll volunteer their time or whatever. But we're down to it a 181 laps are completed they told a nineteen to go looks like. Group of pigs getting ready to go to the trough so to speak is they're forming up in the middle of the back straight away somebody's gonna get shuffled out as they come down to the end for the Daytona 500 this afternoon who's gonna win it. There's a lot of drivers that. This is the plumber motor racing no question about that biggest person. As they worked up in the turner before and get ready to go Darrell Waltrip has to have the adrenaline pumping so it was Bobby Allison sodas young Davey Allison and Phil Parsons. As they form up in turn over forty get ready to go back to green. The Pontiac safety car rolls off of turn four hats for that brought the field slowly now moving through turn four Phil Parsons at the front. Up the field of the cars that are on the lead lap the slower cars to the upside it'll be Kyle Petty and Phil are. Jim Graham has taken the Pontiac safety card down pit road Phil Parsons and the Oldsmobile is not the point. But he is not before the Davey Allison in the Chevrolet of Darrell Waltrip the Buick of Bobby Allison. Coming old supporting break your wallet Dale Earnhardt breathing right down his neck fear factor green flag racing. Phil Parsons leads the charge back to turn number one everyone will pick their way around some of the slower cars before the begin to jockey for position. Lead draft goes to the high side of the racetrack Phil Parsons shows the way Davey Allison sits behind him here's Darrell Waltrip going down the inside the racetrack but challenge for the lead off drive soon. Darrell Waltrip had Bobby Allison right behind David Darrell Waltrip hopes that those of the time variety the first spot here is Bobby Allison looking inside waltrip to make it three wide. Ellison whale all right Alison bye have vendor in the parade. Bobby Allison goes from fourth it'll look number one spot Davey Allison builds up right behind waltrip and Bobby Allison as they run side by side there that'll. Don't start off turn four. Maybe Alison just sit down at your own your own he leaves him hanging out there beside a walk advanced navy tucks in behind Darrell trying to hang out of the draft but Allison is strongest right away he goes after the lead all by himself he hasn't got it yet but he hasn't given up season one love the Buick going to work on the front straightaway can't protect everyone up. Waltrip will not give them though they're still side by side and right behind his Davey Allison a's try to sneak up at the white I'm Phil Parsons. Bobby Allison try to write the final chapter on a storybook week he had Walter door handle to door handle battle action and a 190 plus Davey Allison behind dad moves at the second spot if there were three wide going and Bobby Allison comes out of the final appeal Davey Allison at second Darrell Waltrip runs third. But they first hooked up middle up fourth place spot. As I work off the turn dale earnhardt's car slowing on the banking of turn number four p.'s to the most Simon racetrack heading towards pit road meanwhile the Bobby Allison. Streaking away with a lead here in the Daytona 500 is dale earnhardt's car heads down pit road pick Brooks. And it's coming down that Iraq gets things wrong he's just about does this stop. And check just a minute see what they do to us. Thank god they must have a vibration or flat tire I don't see entirely looks like the right rear tire was flat. Car almost went up and the Walt good piece of driving by Earnhardt to save it over three and four they dropped the Jack put him back on the racetrack but. Any chance he had to win the Daytona 500. It's going to be hard to do it from what happened to him here in the latter stages 184 on the board here comes the field through turn over forest Bobby and Davey Allison ride one of two walker has slipped back to the third spot single file among the front six. As they hit down to the start finish line behind walker as they work the way back in the we want riots Buddy Baker. As they hit the car walker tucked out now with the inside again trying to catch those front too as they get into the viking in the west into the speedway as Walt. It goes whoa Buddy Baker goes by and picks up the spot taking Phil Parsons the law went and so waltrip loses yet another position. Well Walton. Bobby Allison Davey Allison won two Buddy Baker in the hunt definitely go in and night nice job you'll want to slipping further behind. Baker's third bill part could carry the body of law. It's not think definitely rod with Walt reps car you slaughtered here at first break at the front Bobby Allison cheerleader Davey Allison inside that. Buddy Baker the third. We've talked about a heartbreaker Darrell Waltrip was running right up there in the third spot battling for the lead the front cars now peel away as Darryl is right here that. With the second pack. We worked our way 186. Laps around the port fourteen remain in the Daytona 500. Jerry punch. Where the dale waltrip head and Jeff I still say anything about a problem with the car seems to be slowing Olympic moment. Okay there won't talk and as Jeff Campbell right now they are definitely concerning the fifth they were ready to take home let the winner's share here at this 500 right now they're very solid. And we are under caution for the seventh time this afternoon the caution flag came out one lap to go for some debris on the racetrack which NASCAR observers spotted. May have gone out to retrieve the pieces in the turn we should be getting back to green here just a moment to show. But this Jerry punch turns out to be a break while number one for Dale Earnhardt rubber unscheduled stop. And Darrell Waltrip was dropping back a bit this'll get him tightened up in the pac what's the story there. But they're still talking to Darryl fairly Darryl said it does it'll put it lost a cylinder on the engine but the hardest won't go to also the car just to totally flat when it comes off the corners and just won't go into the question is could be an ignition problem in Jaffa would possibly be ignition problem with the car which come in and change the number amplifier. We've artists we stand over an entry our cars but this. K Jeff talking to their dollars and there's an automatic switch in the in the cockpit of the car that dale could reach up and flip or two and also an amplifier. And that make correct the problem really won't know to go back to speak to see if they'll come up to speed and Jeff is now back on the exit talkative or won't there's driver so they have such an ultimate edition. And now we'll see what happens. The members of the media in attendance today airport economic goodies headache award will be announcing the winner of that you've honor a bit later on one call really an honor. What's the what's the award 750 dollars a sample of good he's going to. That there winner plus a contribution to be Brenner Children's Hospital in Winston-Salem North Carolina that accompanies each goodies Havoc award here. In 1988. They're good about to settle it they'll have one. They'll have twenty laps ago when they come back around next time bye and it is going to be a heartbreaker for their water if he had and he has a mechanical problem on the car that would deny him a shot at going for a win this afternoon. Correctly there will be ten laps to go when they come back around twenty laps. So if you can hold your breath for ten laps. Some of them are gonna have to. Dick from what you seen down on pit road as a former driver and what she watched today and what you've heard us say on the network of the cars that are upfront Bobby Allison Davey Allison Buddy Baker. Who can win this thing how can we went. Well I think the best benefit again it gets them on doing and slam first but. I think idea I got a pretty good right now I got a pretty good idea that. That if we came down to Bobby and Davey dual. I think Bobby would probably team I think he's got a little more experience he's he's been Italy mauled in with a cart logo stronger. If there could get up to the Dell certainly had a strong response for awhile so if he could do that. Happy get back a British cars run and then and he's got a big event but I would bet right now Bobby Allison. They bankers just eager he just wanted to win this race so many times he's been way out in front so many times and then right at the end in the last five or six laps he's had things go wrong. He's really gonna be a factor as best he can't because he's gonna extend himself or they can so. I don't know if I had I've got a pool and it it's not Bobby Allison if I can change and I would recommend. I'll bet you it. Well we're about to get down to it here's the Pontiac place car on pit road 25 miles to go in the Daytona 500 Bobby Allison is a leader his young son sits right behind him they be going for his first Daytona 500 win Buddy Baker. Has as much experience as anyone they drop the green and they'll stack them three and four wide back in the pack as they shuffle. Allison gets up through that gear box but he isn't shaking anyone either navy hangs whenever they work turn one and two. Now while they get to the little road ahead of Davey Allison as they hit return number one Davey sits at the second spot the lapped car of Kyle Petty has all the outside. In third the hard charging Buddy Baker coming back golf tournament it would hit the back straightaway Bobby. Bobby Allison and Davey Allison packs start to shuffle it up as they come down the back straightaway Buddy Baker falling back apparently there to now close to sit right back idiot Phil Parsons could carry the body make. But a baker goes up front with the two allison's Bobby to the bottom of the racetrack the cart up through slings up. To the out outside of the banking as he runs and not turn part stadium's second funny thing. Bobby Allison entering the turn far lower on the racetrack then did Davey Allison they come off the corner again in single file funny papers there. Phil Parsons and Jerry look funny scrambling away near the point but it single file at this point nobody's backing up my among the top ten car. Bobby Allison leagues and into the corner probably handle Lowe's side with the Miller Buick Davey is that it ears Buddy Baker looking to the inside of data they'll all stay single file back. Bobby Allison snake and it back and forth a little to try to break up that nine car freight train that he heads right now daily Palestinian second spot doesn't make a vote. Now your Buddy Baker to alongside talented. But a baker goes underneath the baby Allison he'll take over that second place was listed as it goes after the leader Bobby Allison. Back in the third place spot is there any of that after the fourth felt. Plus Dick Brooks may have hit on a key point there a moment ago experience could win this race also his Buddy Baker just nudges underneath Davey Allison single file their back line. Phil Parsons hangs on back there. In the draft single file Google backed into the corner if you make one mistake now you have no chance of winning the 500 there and turn to their clothes and then on. Bobby Allison coming through our number one Davey goes and right behind the banking data the inside of devils Buddy Baker and make good. A second fine. Baker nobody to draft with the the moment but he has pulled Davey Allison by perhaps defender as they can doubt about it now baker slipping back baby well the second filled Washington. The car maker back this up. Bakker getting out left out there to try as he continues to drop back a couple bars Bob Bobby Allison still at the bottom looked great strength Davey Allison at second now Parsons. Fire at a body of fourth. Buddy Baker has yet to talk back in line he's running back in the eighth position might have a spot the talking in front of Darrell Waltrip Rusty Wallace back to the strike. 193. Laps around the port Bobby Allison still leaves Davey Allison. Phil Parsons is there Buddy Baker all the way to the back of that retract. Still in single file except for Buddy Baker whose drop back to the seventh spot he's battling alongside the Rusty Wallace on will be able banking at third but. Alison please away single file Bobby Allison baby ousted Phil Parsons turning into a great great drive sitting in third position. Running fourth carried a body fanatic trivial bonnet and out of Dallas and had about port Carling took ball snapped back up until a couple of turn gray it's still Bobby Allison cheerleader may be out. Also calls an opportunist but bill Parsons start turning up Bonnie Ford Field it's. And like everybody in the lead draft gun shy to see what happened but he bakery pulled down nobody went within they shut the door now Laker goes all the way back to about my position. They hit back Paterno want one more time for the allison's leading the pack. It's single while delving into the backs of front led the way up the third number one again Davey Allison climbs the banking it's our number one. Further behind them way I'll look back because Rusty Wallace he picks up a spot now moving. Just follow car. It is Bobby Allison holding out of the point Davey Allison ride right would have accepted that it's Phil Parsons Terry the body deal money for many traders moved back to sixth position. Rusty Wallace had a good run up front as they did a great job earlier to keep that car on the lead lap Bobby Allison leads a broad term for Davey Allison at Sackett Phil Parsons whole third at 2 o'clock AM that's why. Rusty Wallace have made the outside move around Sterling Marlin he had very little to lose it made the pass successfully.

Pit road and Dick Brooks. While the other Allison I guess the other day we talked about it on the other way and if you if you would be if you had a chance and today you tried. Yeah they got tried as far as I could let. Thus far with this restrictor plate this things will be a little bit down power in dance and it was really strong but he drove a heck berets you know he was tough all day long. We got behind early and we caught back up and we may around Manning but we did this we can do that insect. Maybe probably Manassas allotment it adds a lot more just how hard would you try to be. I use everything on hand. But can't fund Syria did last ABC's looking pretty good shape but they ISIS' is that this has been a longtime hero honorees like. Yeah you know when I was a kid I used during the 12 finish but I've dreamed about it me in LA and you know that was a tough race and a got to hand it to advance Pedro get race that this happened Thorpe thunderbirds and the tough for the rest this year. And certainly that's that's maybe go to which relate it to what's going on there. Well Bobby Allison climbing out of the Miller really can now bother you congratulations on a tremendous effort. Well somewhat dazed of all the Brothers drew Ron furrier. T Thalmann Jimmy Fannie and all of all of that group both teams Bobby Jones team in mind they've worked so hard all winner. And this BA great bill Israeli a fine race car. What a storybook finish few new young son David as last few laps that what was going through your mind though that David was back there he's a pretty fair raced every learn more relevant. Well I'll tell you but he has a fine young man and tremendous competitor. An awful lot of credit needs to go to day DNA yeah hole and aircrew for straight and that car out after getting wrecked it into practice yesterday. He drove the wheels off of it all day is a fine young man I'm proud to say that he belongs to me and Judy. Well mistaken Judy let's ask third giving them those last few apps had to be pretty hard on not on mommy are you got your husband leading. And your your son running second who we Poland for. Well I thought I was in the lead out Poland for him. OK you know one team is finally me apparently. Plus she's been around Bobby and don't let them know how to play the politics out. Bobby congratulations again that it looked like you're incidentally you gonna have him covered in that they you were pretty strong out there but there were times that they can that there are a lot of good run with students look at our heart a few other. While Darryl was really strong and so is dale. Everybody ran really did all day today. You know I don't know looted. His salute they all did a great job. United tremendous race for bill France and I really hope that nobody was injury and injured I noted Haiti was in net on Rick I hope he's okay. Only got where Richard Petty is that going to be kept kept overnight or has been released we are told Al. Promote the hospital and hostility being released and he even radioed back consider that long enough caution may be out and get back in it so I'm sure emptiness and regulations along to you as well well he's a great guy and I assure hated to see him get wrecked his face it was such a severity and now I'm glad he's okay. Bobby Allison picked up his sixth ever win at Daytona his third Daytona 500 victory in the Miller high life Felix go back to the garage area Dick Brooks. Well nailed after a big problem last last fallen and then all summer all wanted to think about it he put together a good data. Wanted it I can't think bell only knows people but Rodriguez has been but I mean but mocking our lord's eyes and Bob really they just do a heck of a jobless car and think defensive role they were at a plant there that last caution. Ruining coming in and go stay out that tells us little bit but the thing come back and that they don't restart where whereas on the motive to it. I expect one of the questions that that you've asked yourself many times over and a lot of the people's ass too casually through. Thought they want that this sort of like they'll look to do list and who of the student okay that's the reason he's walking around or feeling pretty good. You can certainly Obama then Gary Montgomery is also have a garage area. I was the driver first and class first and not Allison class third place finisher Phil Parsons the congratulations on the great run well thank you very much his sister tribute to Leo and any knowledge guys and they must spotter and everybody that that they got me to this point all my sponsors US tobacco school classic crown Detroit guessed it old mobile phone bill ran great assist. That was it's hard to believe really. There are a lot of close calls a lot of bubbles on the racetrack today and you singled with the ball what was your closest since the well I was right dead behind here again when he spun on I don't know I don't know what happened here whether cut a tire down a while but I was right there behind them and knocked. I just you just did miss him and other mad I didn't have any close calls. But trying to it's for a while this is your best finish ever with a cup racing while yeah I saw this been a longtime common you know it. With relic yellow more than we deserted they have undergone a lot of times over the past three years of Reading you what we deserve so maybe this little make up for. Suspend the World Series that would also to go to the best job this is listed good guest host a Super Bowl right. That's right Phil Parsons third place finisher in the little bottle like you say hello my mother and and Michigan alum mark Oman. That's the experiment. Richard Petty who has picked up I don't think anybody surprised the 1000 dollars. As the winner of the goodies headache award. And again equities also making additional award of 250 dollars. In Richard's name to be Brenner Children's Hospital in Winston-Salem North Carolina and reiterating her reiterating what Jerry punch just mentioned there Richard Petty has just been released from Halifax hospital just up the block about it certainly. Very good news. Top freshmen through broke the peak coolest move of the race award them. Well there were a lot of those today some were and some were not overly successful what do you think kept their drew more. But Eli myopic as someone that I wasn't quite as successful with some of the others possibly the for a while it is certainly is Lloyd probably one of his best one yet it was the cup racing. At John Trevor Boise State right there with the front runners he was a lap down work back to get his lap down. Courses that turned out I didn't finish quite that well but my vote goes for him Trevor boys. Good nomination Rick Benjamin returned break well in this part of the speedway there can be only one nomination Bobby Allison with his move but the midpoint of the race went four wide almost to the grass on the inside. To make a pass and get the lead back he was battling Darrell Waltrip at the time. That's worked out well for Bobby obviously you about whether it's Bobby Allison gets our vote out here pat comes novice. Live over the auto Rusty Wallace he of course I had some problems there when he came out of turn four going through the other petty racquet had some problems they worked really hard during the extent Akashi to keep them on the lead lap. And he's ends up here in the seventh place so they really have to that the battle for that seventh place position with some cool heads along that road and from Rusty Wallace. And doctor punch what do you think. Well I tell you our day we don't it's still out as we said before on pit road but at. What I saw a young Phil Parsons to us who that is a great finish and at ground stroke classic Oldsmobile and Phil started back in nineteen spot and he was biding his time all afternoon that. He was staked his way to sum that traffic so that debris up and turn for a stay out of trouble. Ran a good steady racecar and a conservative race and was there at the finish to get to third place finish I'll get my vote to Phil Parsons. Dick Brooks. While I've been there many many times and I'm gonna go with Trevor boys and thank you need to I don't know if he deserves it but there. He sure had a good day most of the day and is not gonna take over my home so. One night. Gary Montgomery in the garage baba come from left field on this one than not nobody saw it but it's an example of what makes racing the greatest sport the world as far as I'm concerned. Kind of sailor involve an early race crash went to the hospital we didn't document the so all during the broadcast. He came out of the hospital I was sitting at the gate he came out of the full run there's a little cheat across to keep people up out of that area. He jumped over the fence that little fence and went to his car trying to get it back in the race so he's a racers racer he didn't have a chance of winning a before he started nor after the crash. And that's just for all the racers and increasing some great Connie sailor gets my vote for the people whom over the race. Bernie I think Petra report is true the boys certainly deserving here to some degree. But I am going to go with Bobby Allison for the maneuver he put on lap 147 out of turn number two. When the card just about got away it now host of traffic and you I commented at the time that a move like that comes with experience. And it went on to help win the race for Bobby Allison so although no ghetto lion's share of the million and a half dollar rare person of course the team has evolved dead today. You've got to look at Bobby Allison to pick it up that to move up in the corner. That's a good nomination but I think cast my vote for Trevor boys because he did start towards Taylor the field used as he had all day long make two moves on restarts linking up we would see somebody pull out to get to the front he would immediately drop out and get them behind him work itself up a position at a time. Knowing that he was at a great disadvantage to win this thing that they are even come up with a good finish for that reason I'll go with Trevor voice. Trevor boys catch the 500 dollars and the five point sure winning BP coolest move the race award today those five points go towards a season long battle. Which pays off at the season's halfway point and again. At the end of the Winston cup season the how the Tampa close but no cigar award. Well yeah. Carson's looks like a guy candidate for that sodas Davey Allison that Phil also used as you know he made a lot of good maneuvers today to work his way to the front the car was not all that fast. And and a half a dozen times a day when you can pick them off one at a time and even move up one position have the patience and come home with a third place finish against the allison's anyway. You've got a pretty good job ethical cast a vote there. I'm I was gonna say the same thing I might well now what Darrell Waltrip having given up just a tad closer to the front picking up the spots as he did but Darryl finished eleventh. And Phil that's fine third place finish so 200 dollars from habitat but to Phil Parsons wearing the clothes but no cigar award today. Only 26 cars are running at the finish of today's Daytona 500 quickly would take you back through the field as far as we can't. Bobby Allison the winner Davey Allison finishing second Phil Parsons ran third meal bar that was forced her body was fifth case raiders six. Finishing seventh Rusty Wallace Sterling Marlin comes homer and eighth place run today but he baker might have to Dale Earnhardt Darrell Waltrip will finish eleventh Bill Elliott twelfth. Thirteenth to Bobby hill and Jeff Bryant credited with fourteenth place finish Rick Wilson comes up fifty. Sixty does Dale Jarrett seventeenth is Ricky Rudd ATP is Trevor boys Kyle Petty in nineteenth Brad Teague gets twentieth position finish this afternoon Dave Marcus 21 Mike waltrip twice second Steve Moore 23 and 24 to Jimmy means. 25 position will go to Ralph Jones and AMP on the rookie driver one of only two in the field they come home and 26 position.
