Rookie of The Year
Jeff Burton, driving the #8 Ford for Stavola Brothers Racing, was named Rookie of the Year for 1994, posting two top-five finishes. He was followed by fellow Busch Series graduates Steve Grissom and Joe Nemechek, each of whom had three top-ten finishes. Loy Allen Jr., despite three poles, struggled to find consistency and finished far back in the standings, while Jeremy Mayfield and John Andretti bounced around different rides throughout the season. Mike Wallace (who started the year at Atlanta in March) and Jeff's older brother Ward were plagued by qualifying troubles all season long. Billy Standridge and Rich Bickle ran partial schedules and were not a factor.

Famous quotes containing the word year:
“The phenomena of the year take place every day in a pond on a small scale. Every morning, generally speaking, the shallow water is being warmed more rapidly than the deep, though it may not be made so warm after all, and every evening it is being cooled more rapidly until the morning. The day is an epitome of the year. The night is the winter, the morning and evening are the spring and fall, and the noon is the summer. The cracking and booming of the ice indicate a change of temperature.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
