The Wallace – Gordon incident. While in the garage area of DIS, discussion came up about what happened between Jeff Gordon and Rusty Wallace at Richmond. The overall consensus of the teams is that neither Jeff or Rusty was at fault. It was just short track racing. And, many said that they had been tradin’ paint, rubbin’ fenders, etc. and it boils down to one simple phrase, “It was just one of them deals.” Even Ray Evernham doesn’t think Rusty did it on purpose. His opinion, it was short track racing, and when you race that tight and hard, anything can happen.(StockCarFans – Nancy)(6-9-98)
