Bud at the Glen, Watkin's Glen, NY - 8/9/98

50 Years of racing at Watkin's Glen
NASCAR mania in New York's den.
Winning a road course, a driver's goal,
Green flag dropped - Gordon on the pole.

Several spin - DW sneaks through,
Yellow out - pits become a zoo.
Geoff Bodine tapped - but ok in 1,
Green flag pits later - tires on the run!

2nd spin - Texas Terry's car trashed,
And at restart - several in back crashed.
Green flys again, Jeff leads at ½ way,
Then Ernie & Kenny in the sand play.

Borris then spun Jimmy's "No Bull" car,
And in the pits 75 caught on fire!
The colored snake winds - all need a stop,
Benson now leads as Cheerios float on top!

But with 10 to go - Burton gets sideways,
Skinner still kept Jeff, Mark and Rusty at bay.
All dog fightin' - Jeff blows by Skinner,
Unical $ and all - again the Gordon's a winner!
