AC Spark Plug 500
The AC Spark Plug 500 was held on July 23 at Pocono International Raceway. Ken Schrader won the pole. This race was notable for a big wreck that involved the #48 of Greg Sacks and the #83 of Lake Speed. The two cars got together going into turn 1 and went into the wall head-on. The hit punched a hole in the wall, and sent Sacks flipping. This required a red flag to fix the wall. Speed broke his shoulder in the crash and had to sit out for a couple weeks.

Famous quotes containing the word spark:
“Advocating the mere tolerance of difference between women is the grossest reformism. It is a total denial of the creative function of difference in our lives. Difference must be not merely tolerated, but seen as a fund of necessary polarities between which our creativity can spark like a dialectic.”
—Audre Lorde (1934–1992)
