Re: Correction on my post...
I just dug out my track profile and the west switch at Clifford was just east of Jefferson Road. The switch is just over the crest of a hill, so even though the track is tangent there, they would not have have had been able to see the red switch banner until it was too late to slow very much from the 40 MPH speed limit. Don't know how far from the switch the cars were parked.
