Round 1 of the 23rd International Race of Champions. This was the first Dale Sr. vs Dale Jr. race in America. They had previously raced together in Japan. In the end old age prevails with a stunning last lap pass.

True about Greg Moore. The post race interview is really when I remember why I liked Earnhardt. Great race.

I loved IROC, take all the champs from the series and pit them all against each other in equal cars, and ol' Earnhardt seemed like he just rose to the occasion in these types of races.

I was a big time GM (Greg Moore) fan. The guy had so much talent. Was a better driver than Helio Castronevas, Ryan Hunter Reay, and Will Power of those drivers we have today. Not saying their bad by no means. But, Greg was in a league of his own, especially on ovals.

Best racing series ever

@azapro911 14 years ago

It would most likely have proved impossible due to various schedules, but I'd have loved an ultimate IROC series where the Formula One, World Rally, NASCAR, CART, IRL etc champions had competed in one race at each series' discipline ie. at a NASCAR race, a WRC event, a Fomula One championship round, a CART street circuit and so on in appropriately modified cars. Then we'd have seen who was the "champion of champions" over all types of four wheel motor sport.
