I can't remember the guys name that went out of the park at Springfield, but I do remember he ended up with a broken wrist. Pretty lucky I reckon. I think the reason they quit the national USAC Midget show at Springfield was because Danny Drinan nearly died in a horrible crash down the backstretch into turn 3.

I believe it was Danny Drinan that had an horrific accident at Springfield. I believe Open Wheel Magazine had a multi-frame spread on it.
