The part in there that has the crashed rail, that was Art Malones #2 car as he had both cars there and had to race against each other so got Val LaPorte to drive #2 car. Used Vals push truck and push bar didn't line up very well, caused it to go into guard rail on pushroad

 

Another one for your perusal.

Anyway, another one just to get it back to the top!
