Recap of The Pocono 500 (Unofficial)
GREEN, GREEN, GREEN, GO, GO, GO!!!!
Lap 3 -- Flat right side possibly rubbing.... (does not lose a lap, but comes back out in 43rd position) Sr. had some contact with Mark Martin ... The fender is still dangled up.

Lap 10 -- The battery is being changed in Scott Pruetts car....

CAUTION #1 Lap #21 Wally Dallenbach involved in a wreck ... after contact with Sterling Marlin. Also at the same time Dave Blaney lost a tire.

NO Changes to Rusty's car....
The hood goes up on Kenny Wallace's car....Broken anti roll bar bracket, lost a lap.
-- Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s lug nuts fell off and he lost a lot of time in the pits.

RESTART Lap #26 -- Jeremy Mayfield is now in the lead with right side only tires, Rusty, Rudd, Stewart and Andretti round out the top 5. Jeff Burton and Mike Skinner had some contact on the restart.

Lap 27 Rusty retakes the lead.

CAUTION #2 Lap #35 This caution is due to Michael Waltrips car not being far enough off the track. NASCAR Felt he was to close to the track.

Oh no.... Bobby Labonte's hood is up ... stays on the lead lap, but there is a hole in the exhaust system.

DE Jr., Johnny Benson and Mike Skinner car only took on 2 tires.

RESTART Lap # 39 Mike Skinner takes the race lead, with John Andretti, Rusty Wallace, Jeff Burton and Bill Elliott rounding out the top 5 on this second restart ....

Lap 40 -- Stacy Compton (darn) went right into the garage, lost the trany on the restart.

Lap 54 -- Tony Stewart takes the lead, Mike Skinner, John Andretti, Johnny Benson and Rusty Wallace round out the top 5 (3 Pontiac's in the top 5 Bumper lol!)

Lap 56 -- Wally Dallenbach comes back out. 35 Laps down.

Lap 60 -- Stacy Compton brings the Melling #9 Car back out 20 laps down, Michael Waltrip is the only 2 cars off the track.

Lap 64 -- "You picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel" might be what Mike Skinner is now singing, he has a vibration in the #31 Chevy.

CAUTION #3 Lap #72 Debris on the track
Mayfield came in Before the caution was flagged, Tony Stewart is in the lead.

Bill Elliott hit the debris, no significant damage, however.

RESTART Lap #125 Mayfield is back in the lead, with Skinner, Benson, Rusty Wallace and Ward Burton round out the top 5. Mike Skinner, Ricky Rudd, Dale Earnhardt, John Andretti and Jeff Burton take 6th through 10th.

Bobby Labonte is also now experiencing brake problems the current points leader is in 24th position.

It is getting colder and rain might be coming......

Tony Stewart retook the lead on the restart. Then Rusty Wallace within a lap took over the lead again.

Lap 89 -- Joe Nemechek (did you see his fathers day helmet colored by his son John Hunter, named after Joe's brother John, who lost his life racing at Homestead) might have to come in for an unscheduled pit .. Engine gone flat. Rusty is still in the lead by almost 2 seconds over team mate Jeremy Mayfield, 3rd place is Tony Stewart, Rudd in 4th and the original Dale (LOL Brad) is in 5th.

Lap 96 -- Rick Mast in 21st slows Way off the pace and Joe Nemechek goes into the garage area. Mast also goes right into the garage, shifter came off.

Jerry Nadeau got together with another car and they were concerned about a cut tire.. all seems ok for the #25 car, currently in 19th position.

AT HALF WAY ......... Rusty leads, with .601 seconds over Jeremy Mayfield, 3rd is Tony Steward, Ricky Rudd holds 4th and Dale Sr. in 5th .... John Andretti was in 14th.
We have had 4 leaders with 8 lead changes. Only 3 caution's so far

Lap 105 -- Tony Stewart takes the lead as Wallace, Mayfield, Wally Dallenbach come in for GREEN FLAG Pits. This leads the field in for pits .....

--- Dale Earnhardt led lap 110 and Jeff Burton lead lap 111. Mark Martin led at lap 112. Then Kevin Lapage take the lead when Martin came in for scheduled pits. KYLE PETTY LEDS On lap 115!! Rusty takes the lead back after all the pits are done....

CAUTION #4 Lap #131 Jimmy Spencer spins across the wet infield (exactly where he did last year on Fathers ay here at Pocono) ...

Rusty Wallace, Rudd and Mayfield are the leaders coming into the pit ... Rudd has a new grill piece put on due to damage..... Rudd lost a lot of track positions due to this pit. After 2 mins and 9 seconds he went out and came back in...Rudd made contact with Kenny Irwin when the field checked up due to Spencer's spin.

Dale Earnhardt came in the pit in 8th position and came out in 4th, after a 15.1 second 4 tire pit!! Matt Kenseth took on only 2 tires and came out in 7th.

RESTART Lap #137 Rusty Wallace leads the field, with Tony Stewart, then Ward Burton in 3rd, and Dale Earnhardt in 4th with 5th place filled by Johnny Benson.

Bill Elliott is coming into the pit .... Unscheduled due to a left tire rubbing.

Poor Kyle Petty has taken his car into the garage ..... smoke came out of the header pipes....lost the motor.

Lap 150 - Rusty Wallace and Tony Stewart hold first and second ... Dale Sr and Mayfield keep swapping 3rd and 4th position. Ward Burton holds 5th over Dale Jarrett, the defending points champion.

Lap 155 -- Bobby Hamilton escaped of the track ..... and right into the garage.

With 37 laps to go Tony Stewart retakes the lead from Rusty Wallace as Dale Sr (3rd) and Mayfield (4th) close in the gap .... From 2nd place

Lap 164 -- Start Green Flag Pits again.... Kevin Lapage hits the wall while he was leading .... NO Caution.

Jerry Nadeau Takes over the lead :) Then Brett Bodine while the green flag pits continue.

Kevin Lapage gets Black flagged.

Lap 168 (Sorry Ang) Bill Elliott went into the garage due to a blown engine (smoke was reported)

After cycling around Green Flag pits, Tony Stewart continues to lead by 1 and 4/10's second, Tony is going for 3 in a row... he leads over Rusty .... Jeremy Mayfield holds the 3rd position... Dale Jarrett holds 4th with Dale Earnhart for 5th....

SO sad --- Johnny Benson takes his car into the garage arewa, they had a great run today, Spencer also goes into the gargage.

Rusty Wallace also is off the pace and falling back.

CAUTION #5 Lap #183 Mike Bliss spins the Viagra car (might have hit oil from Brett Bodines car) .... Earnhardt Sr Just escaped it ..... Brett Bodine lost his motor ... he goes into the garage (lotta blown motors today) ALL The leaders pitted on lap 184 ......
Stewart and Mayfield, and most of the top 10 went with only 2 tires ... Rusty Wallace took 4...

RESTART Lap #188 On the Restart is #3 Dale Earnhardt, #12 Jeremy Mayfield, #88 Dale Jarrett, and 4th is #20 Tony Stewart (stalled in the pits) with 15 laps to go Mark Martin holds 5th.

Mayfields motor is not as strong as it was......

Lap 188 -- Ward Burton hit the wall in turn 2 -- no caution Shame :(

Mayfield raced hard INTO Earnhardt.... Earnhardt lost control and Mayfield went on to Win WOW Lets just shove him out of the way .... Though Dale has done his share of it .... :)
Rob says he intimidated the intimidator!!

Mayfield takes his 3rd career win after getting his first win here 2 years ago!!! This make 2 wins this season for Mayfield he also won in California, this makes him the 3rd (Stewart and Earnhardt, Jr.) driver this season to win 2.

Mayfield just "wanted to Rattle Earnhardt cage a lil bit, Ya know what I mean"

Excellent race!

Red Wings Shoes Hard Working Crew team of the race ..... The #12 Mobil 1 team .....

What Did Dale Sr. havta say ........ "Racin I reckon' is what he's (Mayfield) gonna call it" A good day for us in points ... Dale said he told Jerry he was #1 as he drove past him after the final flag (HEHEHEHE)
