This race saw Earnhardt's eldest son Kerry Earnhardt make his NASCAR Winston Cup Series debut. The presence of Dale Earnhardt, Dale Earnhardt, Jr, and Kerry Earnhardt made this only the second time in NASCAR history that a father had raced against two sons. It was one of only a few times all 3 Earnhardts competed against each other. Lee Petty had previously accomplished the feat with sons Richard and Maurice.
