| FL Dodge Dealers 250 - Official Results |
Jimmy Spencer drove to victory lane, but when the trophy was passed out, it was Bobby Hamilton that was declared the victor in a wild Florida Dodge Dealers 250 at Daytona International Speedway.
Spencer appeared to initially be leading when the caution flag came out for a multi-truck accident just as the field took the white flag, but a television review sent Hamilton's team to victory lane instead.
Hamilton becomes the first driver in the Truck Series' ten-year history to win from the last starting position.
