Found it in "Modified Country Vol. 10, #8":

"Richard Baker, Jr. of Hatfield, PA, making his first start in the racing this season, lost control of his car on the backstretch and hit the fence.  The car flipped over several times.  Baker was taken to Hunterdon Medical Center for Observation."  (Date was June 3, 1989)

There are two pictures of the car in the program-one appears to be the same photo posted here before the crash, and another of the car on the hook afterwards.  In the race report for the rookie feature, it says it was his first race.  

Didn't remember this one at all without looking it up, but this is it.
