 Bobby Hillin, Jr. would become the last-place finisher of this race on lap 2 along with Elton Sawyer, Dale Jarrett, and John Andretti.This was the very first race at Dover after the track was repaved, converting from black asphalt to its now famous white concrete.The switch was accompanied by a brief push to change the track's famous nickname from the "Monster Mile" to "White Lightning" but a 19-car crash on Lap 2 showed the monster still had plenty of bite in it despite its new look.
