After a mediocre run in the Busch Clash, Elliott nearly lapped the field in his 125-mile qualifying race, then thoroughly dominated the Daytona 500, leading 136 of the 200 laps in his #9 Coors\/Melling Ford Thunderbird. The race restarted on the last lap after a Neil Bonnett spin out with less than four laps to go; Bonnett got out of his car and was credited for a 10th-place finish. The race saw a number of engine problems, which knocked many of the contenders, including former Daytona 500 winners David Pearson, A. J. Foyt, Benny Parsons, Bobby Allison, and two-time defending race winner Cale Yarborough, who was trying to win his third straight Daytona 500 victory.[3]The only car that could consistently run with Elliott was Cale Yarborough, and when his engine went up in smoke on lap 62 the race was for all intents and purposes over.[1]Hendrick Motorsports landed its first big-time full-season sponsorship for 1985 with Levi Garrett chewing tobacco coming aboard to sponsor the #5 Chevrolet of Geoff Bodine. The car’s first points race in its new yellow-and-white paint scheme saw Bodine post a solid top-10 run, kicking off a several-year partnership.[1]There were 12 cars that were knocked out just from engine problems; with a lot of big names affected (Neil Bonnett, who somehow finished 10th even with a blown engine; defending champion Terry Labonte; both Parsons brothers; Kyle Petty; Harry Gant; David Pearson; Bobby Allison and 2-time defending Daytona 500 champion Cale Yarborough among them).[1]Qualifying[edit]Qualifying results[edit]PosDriverTeamManufacturer19Bill ElliottHarry MellingFord Thunderbird205.114228Cale YarboroughHarry RanierFord Thunderbird203.814311Darrell WaltripJunior JohnsonChevrolet Monte Carlo421David PearsonHoss EllingtonChevrolet Monte Carlo555Benny ParsonsLeo\/Richard JacksonChevrolet Monte Carlo67Kyle PettyWood BrothersFord Thunderbird788Buddy BakerBuddy Baker\/Danny SchiffOldsmobile Cutlass843Richard PettyMike CurbPontiac Grand Prix915Ricky RuddBud MooreFord Thunderbird1033Harry GantHal NeedhamChevrolet Monte Carlo111Dick BrooksPetty EnterprisesFord Thunderbird1266Phil ParsonsLeo\/Richard JacksonChevrolet Monte Carlo1351Greg SacksArnie SacksChevrolet Monte Carlo1475Lake SpeedRahMoc EnterprisesPontiac Grand Prix1547Ron BouchardJack BeebeBuick Regal1614A.
