1994 Earnhardt almost hits pace car, which race?

[knightryder1120]

Anyone know which race that was? I remember it was 1994 because the pace car he almost hit was a 25th Anniversary Trans Am, which came out in 1994. I believe he got hit, came off the corner, came down the front stretch, pace car had to stop at end of pit road, and Earnhardt goes right past it, I believe the left rear tire actually hit the pace car because it left black marks on the side of the front bumper. Any help? Thanks.

I thought Tony had done something like that, but I don't remember Sr doing it. He used to play around and sometimes tap the bumper.

Im almost sure it was Earnhardt Sr that did it. This was after Earnhardt was in an accident and was on his way around the track to go back to the pits and the pace car was just about to come on the track. My reason I thought it was Earnhardt was my dad (God rest his soul) was an Earnhardt fan back in the day and I owned a 25th Anniversary Trans Am, and I remember getting on his case about it, LOL. anyway thanks for your reply, Ill have to check on that.
