Rusty's flip happened right under my nose. I had just walked out of the Bristol infield media center behind pit road toward turn 4. Scary. Reminded me of Phil Barkdoll at Daytona, except Rusty's airborne antics happened during practice.
You're right Dennis. I got a year ahead of myself. Old timers. Thanks for the catch.

This race will revert to the night time in 2019 after miserly attendance on Sunday afternoon in 2018.

Dave,
This don't look right? The dates: night time in 2019 and Sunday afternoon in 2018.

Terry Labonte was flagged the winner, under the yellow flag, of this June 6, 1998 Pontiac Excitement 400 at Richmond over Dale Jarrett, Rusty Wallace, Ken Schrader and Mark Martin. When it was discovered that Terry's 1st place payout would be $99,975, the press box offered to take up a collection to raise $25 to bump the check to an even $100,000!
