Race #1 - Goody's 300
The newly renamed NASCAR Busch Grand National Series started it's third season with the 1st stop of the season in Daytona Beach, Florida, the site of the Daytona International Speedway for the Goody's 300.
Geoffrey Bodine led the field to the Green Flag but it would be L.D. Ottinger who would lead the first six laps as NASCAR's secondary series started of their third season in a big way as the second lap a "big one" would strike taking out the defending series champion out after only two laps. Less then twenty laps later a second "big one" would strike and this time be more affective as only twelve cars were left after only thirty laps had been completed. With much of the field gone Darrell Waltrip would dominate the day leading 58 of the 120 laps but would be in a race long duel with Neil Bonnett, a battle Waltrip would win to score his second straight win at Daytona.
Other Noticeables:
Darrell Waltrip scored his 1st win of the year,
Waltrip led 15 times for 58 laps, including the final 4 laps,
It was the 4th win of his career in the newly renamed NASCAR Busch Grand National Series and his first since 1983 at IRP; 14 races ago,
Junior Niedecken(3rd), Robbie Crouch(6th), Sammy Swindell(10th), Merv Treichler(14th), Carl Williford(28th), Francis Affleck(29th) and Dick McCabe(37th) made their NASCAR Busch Grand National Series debuts,

Race #2 - Wrangler 150
The NASCAR Busch Grand National Series made their 2nd stop of the 1984 season in Richmond, Virginia, the site of the Richmond Fairgrounds Raceway for the Wrangler 150.
Sam Ard led the field to the Green Flag and would lead the first 18 laps as the tricky short track in Richmond was a pretty calm affair for much of the early half. Dale Earnhardt would take the lead just before lap twenty and from that point on he was challenged by Ard, Jack Ingram, Tommy Houston and Dale Jarrett for the rest of the race as six cautions would allow drivers shots at the lead, but Earnhardt played defense for the final twenty five laps and was able to score the win.
Other Noticeables:
Dale Earnhardt scored his 1st win of the year,
Earnhardt led 1 time for 132 laps, including the final 132 laps,

Race #3 - Komfort Koach 200
The NASCAR Busch Grand National Series made their 3rd stop of the 1984 season in Rockingham, North Carolina, the site of the North Carolina Motor Speedway for the Komfort Koach 200.
Sam Ard led the field to the Green Flag and would lead the first lap as for the second year in a row the North Carolina Speedway gave the fans in attendance a great show as wrecks, lead changes and an exciting finish led many to say this was one of the greatest races in the three year history of the NASCAR Busch Grand National Series L.D. Ottinger would lead much of the event but was shuffled back due to lap traffic allowing Tommy Houston to take over. One year earlier, Houston led 53 of the 147 laps only to hit the wall late in the race and hand the win to Dale Earnhardt.
With Earnhardt not appearing at North Carolina, Houston took the lead late from Davey Allison and appeared on his way to redemption. However a caution with less then ten laps to go set up a shootout finish as Sam Ard, who had only led the first lap earlier in the race, passed Houston just before the finish line, scoring his first win of 1984 as well as breaking the record of the closest margin of victory in the series history by one thousand of a second.
Other Noticeables:
Sam Ard scored his 1st win of the year,
Ard led 1 time for 2 laps, including the final lap,
It was the 14th win of his career in the NASCAR Busch Grand National Series and his first since 1983 at Charlotte; 6 races ago,
Glenn Sears(22nd), Kenny Burks(27th) and Larry Walker(31st) made their NASCAR Busch Grand National Series debuts,

Race #4 - Mountain Dew 200
The NASCAR Busch Grand National Series made their 4th stop of the 1984 season in Hickory, North Carolina, the site of the Hickory Motor Speedway for the Mountain Dew 200.
Jack Ingram led the field to the Green Flag and would lead the first twenty-three laps as the short 0.363 mile track turned out to be the calmest race of the season so far. Jack Ingram would lose the lead to Tommy Ellis as both drivers would swap the lead until Ellis would fall out due to mechanical problems. Sam Ard would become the new race leader and was looking to win back-to-back events, but it would be Tommy Houston, who eight days earlier would lose to Ard in the closest finish in the history of the series, came into Hickory with redemption, and would take the lead with less then forty laps to go and would go on to score his first win of 1984.
Other Noticeables:
Tommy Houston scored his 1st win of the year,
Houston led 3 times for 37 laps, including the final 35 laps,

Race #5 - Miller Time 250
The NASCAR Busch Grand National Series made their 5th stop of the 1984 season in Martinsville, Virginia, the site of the Martinsville Speedway for the Miller Time 250.
Dale Jarrett led the field to the Green Flag and would quickly begin to once again show that Martinsville was his house, as Jarrett had won the last Martinsville event by leading all but five laps. With only three cautions during the race, drivers didn't have much time to adjust their cars as Jarrett led more then half the event but a late caution changed the complexion of the race. Charlie Luck, who had started 3rd and remained in the Top 5 all day, took advantage of the restart and was able to hold off Jack Ingram and Dale Jarrett to score his first ever win in NASCAR.
Other Noticeables:
Charlie Luck scored his 1st win of the year,
Luck led 1 times for 74 laps, including the final 74 laps,
It was the 1st win of his career in the NASCAR Busch Grand National Series in his 37th start,
Ed Berrier(16th) and Jackie Carithers(17th) made their NASCAR Busch Grand National Series debuts,
Tommy Houston, who finished 18th, kept his points lead, leading Sam Ard by 6 points

Race #6 - Dixie Cup 200
The NASCAR Busch Grand National Series made their 6th stop of the 1984 season in Darlington, South Carolina, the site of the Darlington Raceway for the Dixie Cup 200.
Tommy Houston led the field to the Green Flag but it was Sam Ard who would lead the first lap before he was passed by Geoffrey Bodine as the track nicknamed as "The Track Too Tough To Tame" turned out to be a pretty clam event with only three cautions flying during the whole day. Bodine would lead 76 of the 147 laps but was passed late by Ron Bouchard who looked to be on his way to his first ever NASCAR Busch Grand National Series win.
However Sam Ard would pass Ron Bouchard with less then forty laps to go and it appeared that he was going to win his second win of 1984. Entered Pole Sitter Tommy Houston who had never led a single lap despite winning the pole, took the lead with sixteen laps to go and was able to hold on to score his second win of 1984 after a late caution ended the race.
Other Noticeables:
Tommy Houston scored his 2nd win of the year,
Houston led 1 time for 16 laps, including the final 16 laps,
It was the 8th win of his career in the NASCAR Busch Grand National Series and his first since Hickory; 2 races ago,

Race #7 - Mason Day Paving 200
The NASCAR Busch Grand National Series made their 7th stop of the 1984 season in Rougemont, North Carolina, the site of the Orange County Speedway for the Mason Day Paving 200.
Eddie Falk led the field to the Green Flag but it would be Robert Ingram who would lead the first three laps as the 0.375 mile short track proved to once again be one of the most unpredictable race of the season. With a rough racing surface drivers struggled to get a good grip on the track leading to multiple cautions and pit stops and with no clear decider who would win the race. When a caution came out with less then forty to go, drivers made their last stop and a battle was started.
Sam Ard would lose the lead quickly to Charlie Luck before he lost it to Jeff Hensley before swapping the lead again. Jeff Hensley was able to take advantage of two late cautions during the last ten laps and was able to hold on to score his first ever win in the NASCAR Busch Grand National Series.
Other Noticeables:
Jeff Hensley scored his 1st win of the year,
Hensley led 2 times for 16 laps, including the final 13 laps,
It was the 1st win of his career in the NASCAR Busch Grand National Series in his 43rd start,
Sam Ard, who finished 7th, is the new points leader, leading Tommy Houston by 18 points
