#87-Joe Nemechek survived a late-race 16-car pile-up Friday night to win the BGN at Daytona International Speedway. Nemechek, who started on the pole, remained near the front most of the night. A 16-car wreck on the backstretch on Lap 96 brought out a red flag for 17 minutes and provided a two-lap dash to the finish. Nemechek held off #60-Greg Biffle by .190 seconds to win the Stacker2 250, his first victory of the season and first at Daytona since the season opener in 1998. It was his 12th BGN career victory. #37-Kevin Lepage was third, #57-Jason Keller fourth and #27-Jamie McMurray rounded out the top five. Biffle took over the series points lead after the previous leader, Jack Sprague, was caught up in the late-race accident and finished 28th. Biffle leads Keller by 39 points. Sprague is third, Scott Riggs fourth and Scott Wimmer fifth. (ThatsRacin.com). For race results, see ThatsRacin.com or BGN Racing.(7-5-2002)
