Something Missing?

The ABC Supply 500 is an Indy Car race held at Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, Pennsylvania. The race was sanctioned by USAC from 1971–1981, and then by CART from 1982–1989, and was known as the Pocono 500. The race was removed from the CART calendar following the 1989 running, due to poor track conditions, as well as poor revenue for the promoter.

As is the case with many races, the name of the race has been changed numerous times over the years. Below is a list of some of the dates and names used previously.
