The ''1996 DieHard 500'' was a NASCAR Winston Cup Series race that ran on July 28, 1996. Consisted over 129 of the scheduled 188 laps at the 2.6 mile Talladega Superspeedway, it was the 18th race of the 1996 Winston Cup Season. Jeff Gordon of Hendrick Motorsports won the race. The race however was primarily known for Dale Earnhardt Sr. crashing into the wall hard on Lap 118, after Ernie Irvan clipped Sterling Marlin into Earnhardt sending both cars into the wall resulting in a major pileup. Earnhardt ended up flipping on his side before being hit in the roof. Miraculously, Earnhardt walked away despite having a broken sternum and was able to start the Brickyard 400 the following week. CBS was to have aired the race live, but due to a weather delay, the race was shown on tape delay (see below). As a result, people found out about Earnhardt's crash from other sources. This race to date was the last Cup race on tape delay. *Due to a weather delay, the race was not aired live due to CBS deciding to air golf. The race was rebroadcast on tape delay one week after the Brickyard 400. ==Top Ten Results== # 24-Jeff Gordon # 88-Dale Jarrett # 6-Mark Martin # 28-Ernie Irvan # 23-Jimmy Spencer # 7-Geoffrey Bodine # 99-Jeff Burton # 18-Bobby Labonte # 17-Darrell Waltrip # 2-Rusty Wallace Failed to Qualify: 97-Chad Little 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1996 DieHard 500」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
