Elliot got Dodge first pole in 18 years!
Daytona 500 green flies to the fan's cheers!
Several lead changes then a tire blows on the 2,
Racin' green hard until for Purvis the yellow flew.

Back to racing - trading paint in a long green run,
Earnhardt and Busch tap - Dale says, "you're number one!"
Pits under green as Skinner leads half-way,
Kyle got a time penalty and caught speeding was Hornaday.

Cars are bumping and grinding - space is lean.
Busy pits again - under the green.
Rookie Busch slides and brings second yellow,
Messed up his ride and the 33 of Joe's.

Rusty and Robert Pressley got their lap back,
After restart - they're again in one pack!
Tony goes flying as he got tagged,
Almost half the field destroyed - race is red-flagged.

Waving green - Junior and Senior sit on top,
Then Michael Waltrip takes the hop.
Holding 'em off - Mikey gets his 1st ever win,
As Earnhardt and Shrader take a spin.
