Rusty Wallace on his blunder Sunday.... "We're getting ready to start again and I looked up and Earnhardt is sitting in the sixth position and I'm seventh -- 20 cars behind a bunch of lapped cars," said Wallace, who was also thankful to survive a spin earlier without damage. "So I pull over and pass the lapped cars and get behind Earnhardt." Wallace's move was illegal under the rules for restart with 10 laps or less left in the race, and he was hit with a stop-and-go penalty. "You know, I always knew the 10-lap rule was for the leaders only and it was always a single-file restart, but I didn't realize you couldn't do that," Wallace said. "I guess that's my fault. I didn't realize that I couldn't pull up behind the one-lap-down cars and go. I didn't know I had to stay 25 car lengths behind him and that's what happened, so they busted me for doing that and that put me back to 14th."
