Новичок года
В свой первый год в NASCAR Грег Биффл выиграл четыре полюса и имел двенадцать десятков лучших, завоевав почетные звания новичка года над Энди Хьюстоном, который одержал одну победу и финишировал на двенадцатом месте. Скотт Уолтерс, водитель грузовой команды Brewco Motorsports, был последним претендентом, который пробежал полный график, разместив три десятки лучших. Уэйн Андерсон был освобожден в течение сезона от своей гонки Liberty Racing, в то время как Кевин Сайвински и Доминик Добсон были поздними участниками. Билли Пауч, Майк Коуп, Джо Буш и Томми Арчер не пробежали достаточно гонок, чтобы претендовать на эту честь.
In his first year of NASCAR competition, Greg Biffle won four poles and had twelve top tens, earning him Rookie of the Year honors over Andy Houston, who had one win and a twelfth place points finish. Scot Walters, driving for Brewco Motorsports's truck team, was the last contender to run a full schedule, posting three top tens. Wayne Anderson was released during the season from his ride Liberty Racing, while Kevin Cywinski and Dominic Dobson were late entrants. Billy Pauch, Mike Cope, Joe Bush and Tommy Archer did not run enough races to qualify for the honor.
