Thirteen days until the 60th running of the Payless Little 500. 13 years ago in 1995 Tray House won his second straight pole position with a track record time of 44.353 seconds for the four lap run. Donnie Adams and Bentley Warren, in the Glen Niebel sprinter, completed the front row. Warren took the lead for the first time on lap 137 and began a battle with Gary Fedewa that would last for over 200 laps. Warren led through lap 170 with Fedewa taking over for one lap. Warren resumed the point on lap 172 and held sway until Fedewa took over on lap 346. Warren was back in front on lap 369 and steadily pulled away to win by two laps over Fedewa. It was the popular veteran's first win in the Little 500. Behind Fedewa Tony Elliott was third (494 laps), Jason McCord 4th (492 laps), and Bill Tyler rounded out the top five (491 laps).
