• First win for Gordon-Evernham Motorsports. This was also the only win with Ray Evernham as co-owner. Evernham would sell his half of the team at seasons end to go develop his own team with Dodge for the 2001 Winston Cup season. Rick Hendrick bought Evernham's share and the team was renamed to JG Motorsports for 2000.

The HotWheels.com 300 was held November 13 at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Hut Stricklin won the pole. The race was broadcast on NBC, NBC's first Busch Series telecast.
