Earnhardt hooked Unser into the wall to win this one.

Unser tried to block Earnhardt but Earnhardt was on his outside. Nothing
Earnhardt did, he was already there on Unser.

There were no radio's allowed in IROC, therefore no spotters. Very
dangerous in this type of race.

Al Unser Jr when interviewed after the race said he wanted to be in
front on the last lap and try to block like Dale was the year before. He
saw the train coming and saw Dale go low so he went down to block, but
Dale faked and went high to pass and by the time he tried to get his car
up to block Dale was already there.

He thought maybe they would lift he said. No way Dale could've lifted.
There wasn't time to lift because Unser came right up into him. If Dale
could've lifted the entire field would've piled up and wrecked because
they were all lined up on his bumper.

The commentators for the race were Paul Page, Benny Parsons and Sam
Posey. The Pit road reporter was Jack Arute.

After little Al's wreck, he mentioned that he expected Dale to lift on
the last lap, lol. He mentioned that he did the year before when Dale
held him off. What he was referring to was when they were coming to the
checkers in the tri-oval at the 1994 Daytona race Earnhardt blocked and
pinched little Al coming to the line and held on to win. This race
little Al tried to pinch Earnhardt off into the outside wall on the
backstretch and instead of hitting the wall Earnhardt had to go left and
hit little Al. Earnhardt was being pushed by Martin and they had a
"freight train" coming after little Al. After it was over Jack Arute
asked Earnhardt if it took the exuberance out of victory lane where
little Al wrecked, and Earnhardt stated... "yeah, it's not fun when
somebody wrecks."

Mark Martin was a player at the end in both the 1994 and '95 race. I
believe that those three were the best IROC racers.
