Yes. And a good fence. Proper cabling, turned in towards the track, can be replaced quickly. Made for racing, like Eldora’s.

What happened to the press release telling us how the sprints were going to handle the ticket refunds?
I would never think any of this is on Brad. I just talked to tyler Altmeyer of all star sprints at 724-954-4915 and all he had was a canned response of were working on it . Maybe everyone should call him and tell him that 2 weeks is long enough and quit with the BS crap, that's how I see it!
I wasn't at the track to walk it and see the new wall; but something that was mentioned on Twitter that I think may have been try was the new section of the wall wasn't perpendicular to the banking but was just kinda sat in at the edge of the existing track and when you hit the wall you ramped up it.
If true, then they needed to cut and change how the wall was placed so that it was no longer ramping the cars.
Otherwise the place really just needed more catch fencing than they had up. If they could put up better, taller, stronger, and curved catch fencing even the better. But none of that is cheap and infinite pockets aren't running the place.
Push and flip cars are a big part of Atomic Speedway, and cutting them completely would be cutting a lot of admissions I believe. Of course, it'd cut a lot of expense.
You are correct about the angle of the wall .... Imagine the track being flat .... You can just sit the prefab concrete wall & level it .... This isn't the case with a banked oval .... Since atomic has alot of banking the wall would need to be leaned inn toward the inside at ( 30 degree angle ) to be square with the banking .... If not than yes the new wall could be considered a ramp .... This would be what happened in turn 1-2 crash over the wall ..... I'm not sure if the turn 3 wall was extended or altered ...
that is the answer. the angle of the wall and a fence. been going there since 1969 and saw a lot of things happen over the years. that place is super fast and it caught a guy with little experience off guard. brad will get it right he does a good job!
seen some very good sprint car races there over the years winged and non wing and before the walls cars went tumbling over the hill over the years changes have been made more seating and walls a catch fence would be the number one priority if the wall is certified to pass inspection safety is not the only thing it`s the main thing to keep the drivers safe and paying fans safe especially on a hammer down track.
