Rockingham, NC - Pop Secret 400 - 11/4/01

Herman the perfect "poler" for Rockingham,
But on 1st lap - Bill Elliot and Kyle slam.
Kenny takes restart - starts lapping in a long green,
Then Tony Stewart took over in his Home Depot machine.

Some teams start pitting - all need tires and gas,
New leader now - as Nemechek flies on past.
Bobby Labonte takes over - then he dives in too,
Mikey assumes lead - again it's Joe as they cycle through.

Nemechek long leader - but charging is Bobby's battery,
Everyone else is loosing speed - so to the pits they all flee.
During the pit sets - Carl Long is high then slow,
He can't get to the bottom - Jimmy waves yellow.

Busch the lucky leader - only a few on the lead lap,
It's an extended caution - as blowers clear the mishap.
Kenny Wallace then goes to point - as we get to half way,
It's a long fight with Nemechek - but can't keep him at bay.

Slipping and sliding - all the tires loosing grip,
Crews getting busy - time for all teams to pit.
Again it's Busch in front - taking a long lead,
Then his water pressure high - gives way to the 33.

Again to the pits - probably the last of the race,
After they cycle through - Nemechek again leads the chase.
Joe holds on - wiggling all the way to the end,
Gets Oakwood Homes & Andy Petree the win!!
