It was Super Sunday, all right, except this one had drama, emotion and a finish that will go down as one of the classics in Daytona 500 history. Staring at racing's version of fourth-and-1, Jarrett cut to the inside, stiff-armed Dale Earnhardt and hauled in the biggest catch in all of stock-car racing.

"That's just what it is, the Super Bowl," said Gibbs, car owner for Jarrett, who finished .19 seconds ahead of Earnhardt, followed by Geoff Bod-ine, Hut Stricklin and rookie Jeff Gordon. "It's exactly the same feeling." It was a day of emotions. It was a day when Kyle Petty and Bobby Hillin Jr. nearly came to blows after crashing, when Rusty Wallace made an estimated crowd of 150,000 hold its collective breath with a harrowing crash (he wasn't seriously hurt), and when former racing great Ned Jarrett lost all objectivity as a CBS broadcaster and cheered emphatically for his son. With 10 laps to go, Earnhardt, Gordon and Jarrett were in a 190-mph hurry-up offense, running single '7 Despite having chances to win, Tampa Bay takes satisfaction in a 3-3 outcome against Boston.

In the third period, Brian Bradley hit a post on one chance and couldn't control a bouncing puck with an open net on another. But at the other end, Ray Bourque hit a post, too.

The puck skipped over Dmitri Kvartalnov's stick with an open net staring at him as well. And David Shaw's slap shot deflected off goalie Wendell Young, hit the left post and bounded to safety. "I'd call it even," Lightning coach Terry Crisp said. "I'll take the (3-3) tie and go home." Although the Lightning let three one-goal leads evaporate, "coming out with at least a tie against a team like Boston has to be satisfying even though a win would have made us much happier," said Bob Beers, acquired by the Lightning from Boston on Oct. 28 in exchange for Stephane Richer.

Chris Kontos, Mikael Andersson and John Tucker scored for the Lightning, which is 3-2-1 in its past six games. But the team's play at its defensive end was what produced the tie before a capacity crowd of 10,425 at Expo Hall. "The guys are starting to take pride in working hard at their own end again," Crisp said. "That's what we've got to have. That's why we've been successful again." In the other locker room, Boston coach Brian Sutter wasn't happy with his team's play, especially the first line of Adam Oates, Joe Juneau and Kvartalnov.

"Their checking line (Rob DiMaio, Kontos and Marc Bureau) outplayed our best line," Sutter said. "If you want more clarification than that, go in and talk to the players. I'm tired of DAYTONA BEACH ometimes the smartest thing a boy can do is not listen to his daddy. When Dale Jarrett was a teenager, long after he'd gone from pretend driving to hotfooting it around Hickory, N.C., his passion was, of all things, golf. Ned Jarrett took his boy aside more than once and told him, son, pick up those irons and wedges and putters and get on that grass and hit that little white ball into that little round hole and make yourself a career on the PGA Tour.

Ned, it seemed, was grooming Dale's older brother, Glenn, to be the next generation of Jarrett to high-tail it around the Winston Cup circuit. The only problem was Glenn turned out to be a pretty lousy driver. He never did much of anything except crash. "Dale had a lot of God-given talent as an athlete," Ned said. "The reason I wanted him to pursue golf was that I knew the pitfalls of racing.

I knew the hardships and sacrifices he would have to make. I didn't know what they'd be on the PGA Tour." i A III i Dale played it smart. He ignored his father, wrapped his hands around a three-spoked wheel instead of a 3-iron and took off for the blacktop instead of the greens. And Sunday, like father, like son? Well, no, actually. Ned won 50 Winston Cup races.

He won two Winston Cup driver championships. But he never won the Daytona 500. Ned was here to cheer him on, broadcasting the race from the CBS television booth. As Dale Jarrett and Dale Earnhardt the best driver never to win this race roared side by side out of Turn 4 and headed for the last lap, Ned Jarrett lost all semblance Please see LOWITT 7C Dale Jarrett, in his green Chevy Lumina, takes the checkered flag ahead of Dale Earnhardt and Geoff Bodine.
