There was supposed to be a fourth IROC race at Talladega in 1985 but it
wound up rained out.

Terry Labonte again drove the powder blue #5 in this race (although he's
the only number I've found for it)

And just to clarify the IROC race at Talladega for 1985 would have
preceded this one.

Numbers:
Harry Gant- #18 (teal)
Terry Labonte #5 (powder blue)

Those were all I could find. If anyone knows the rest, please post them,
this is the only post 1984 revival IROC race without a full set of numbers.

Mario Andretti missed this race due to injury.

Gant's win here gave him the 1985 IROC title, it was his first time
running in the series.

Gant took the title with a photo funish victory over Labonte. He passed
his fellow NASCAR racer in the trioval on the last lap and outdragged
him to the line.
