Very true. Although hopefully there are now very few places where such high forces are in action that there is not sufficient run-off... bearing in mind the car usually has to hit something (like a kerb or gravel trap) to flip in the first place, so although not unheard of, hitting the wall upside down at Indy is unlikely, for example.
