James Climer
& Bobby Allison waged a race-long battle during
one of Highland Rim Speedway's open competition features.
Entering the first turn on the 10th lap, Allison tapped
Climer and the #70 Falstaff Beer Chevelle ended up balanced
on TOP of the wall. A crane spotted outside the track
[at a construction site] enabled the track crew to lift
the Chevelle off the wall without damaging anything.
By the 25th lap James was leading again!
