Sorry about Fangio and Baldwin above, I used the finish order from
Daytona compared to the previous post to make these and didn't take that
out.

Davey Allison tallies his second IROC win as the all-star series pays
its first visit to Darlington. It was sadly Allison's last major stock
car victory and his penultimate IROC start. This was his only win of his
championship 1993 IROC season.

Anyone know why Earnhardt and Wallace were subbing for other drivers?

Earnhardt and Wallace, neither of whom qualified for IROC 1993 after
rough 1992 NASCAR Winston Cup seasons, were called in to sub for Unser,
Jr. and Luyendyk respectively after the open wheel racers both suffered
mild injuries in pre-season IndyCar testing crashes and decided to sit
this one out while healing up.

This was sadly the penultimate race of Alan Kulwicki's career, followed
only by the next day's NASCAR Winston Cup race, before his tragic death
in a plane crash just five days later. ABC aired IROC races at the time
on a tape delay, the video I found seems to imply they aired it a week
later after the CART race at Phoenix, and the broadcast began with
announcer Paul Page sending his sympathies to Kulwicki's family and
friends.

This race was run the same day as a NASCAR Busch Series race. During the
ABC broadcast a lot of the Busch series cars were visible waiting for
their race in the back stretch pit area.

Paul Page along with Sam Posey and Bobby Unser were the commentators.
Jack Arute was the sole pit road reporter.
