I've seen a couple of pics recently of upside-down late models. How do they get out of those things? The windows don't look big enough to get into/out of even when it's upright.

They are able to climb out the window. In fact when I was at the Jackson 100 in Brownstown last year with the lightning sprints on Friday night CJ Rayburn actually had a flap that folded down to help him get into the car. I am like you I do not know how they get in and out of those cars when they get upside down. Looks hard enough watching them get in and out in the pits.
