Labonte clings on to points lead

Burton, who finished second at Pocono, behind Wallace, leapt from seventh to fourth in the points, with 'Pole King' Wallace rising from ninth to fourth after his second victory of the season.

At the head of the standings, Bobby Labonte hangs on to the top slot after a sixth-placed finish in Pocono, but it's all change in the Dale department behind. Dale Earnhardt drops to third after suffering a blown tyre and suspension damage on the weekend, and his place is taken by Dale Jarrett, who finished fourth, but also picked up the five bonus points for most laps led.

Biggest loser of the week is Ward Burton. His 28th place finish has seen him tumble from fourth to seventh.
