Pumpkin Spice Cake

1 (18.25-ounce) package yellow cake mix
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 (16-ounce) can pumpkin puree
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup brown firmly packed sugar
1/2 cup pecans, chopped

1. Preheat oven to 350*F.
