5:04 p.m. Millican has a list of wins as long as your arm, but none this year. Cooper was in just his second final round, with no wins.

Cooper did not get the win light, but he did everythinbg he could in an effort to get it - leaving first and running his best lap of the weekend. However, the Werner team appears to be getting a handle on what this car wants with the new tires and Millican's car was once again right down the groove with no tire shake. Clay Millican's margins: 60ft(0.027), 330 ft(0.021), 660ft(0.031), 1,000ft(0.039). MOV: 0.0454 seconds (approximately 20 feet).
