Ron You"re right. The three I named actually cleared the billboards. There have been several who went over the boiler plate wall and hit the billboard and bounced back on to the track plus a couple who cleared fence hit boards and dropped like a rock One of them was Richard Jackson who is a paraplegipedic who got wedged between billboards and wall UPSIED down and on fire. He was OK thanks to Tommy and safety crew getting under his car and pulling him to safety.
