      History


      The inaugural 200-lap race, named Racing Champions 200, was held on April 8, 1995. The race was won by the No. 16 Chevrolet driven by Ron Hornaday Jr., who led the race three times to lead a total of 103 laps. In 1996, NAPA claimed naming rights for the race, which was moved from April 8 to May 25. Mike Skinner won the race after leading the race from lap 127 to the finish. Rich Bickle led the first 126 laps, but finished second. For 1997, NAPA continued their naming rights for the race, which was moved to March 1. Hornaday Jr. won the race for the second time in three years after passing Bickle with ten laps left in the race. Before the race, he had been recovering from a spectator accident in January 1997 at Walt Disney World Speedway. Following the race, Hornaday Jr. commented, "That's what we needed to do. We had to retaliate from that 30th-place finish at the last race. We really needed this one today." Following the 1997 season, the race was removed from the series' schedule.
