LEADING OFF: This week's award for tireless pursuit of excellence goes to Todd Cooper, a member of driver Joe Ruttman's pit crew at the Daytona 500. During a tire change on Lap 144, Ruttman's erstwhile right front wheel went on a roll of its own. By the time Cooper rounded it up, Ruttman was back on the track, heading to a 17th-place finish.
