- Ken Schrader was injured in a crash on the last lap of Race #1. The #96 Caterpillar Chevrolet of David Green got into the rear of Schrader's #33 Skoal Chevrolet in Turn 1. It put Schrader head on into the wall. Schrader's car also caught Johnny Benson in the #26 Cheerios Ford and put Benson in the wall, eliminating his chance to make the Daytona 500. In the crash, Schrader suffered a broken sternum. He raced in the 500 using his car from the Bud Shootout (it was painted differently from the car Schrader was intending to use in the 500) while wearing a bull rider's vest.
