simple text based car racing game

[EAXiz8AR]

Ok so I have to make a simple racing game where the user inputs 1, 0, or -1 for the increments in horizontal and vertical acceleration/deceleration to guide the "car" (which is represented as a "0" in the text game) to the finish line.

The part that I'm having trouble with is when the "car" crashes into the side of the wall or barrier. The code is supposed to be so that the "car" is embedded in the side of the wall or barrier but I'm not sure how to make it work. Will someone help me?

The project information is here:
http://www.umich.edu/~engr101/Bielajew/a6.pdf


and what I have so far is here:

the code that is specifically giving me trouble is from lines 116 to 140. Everything above that is working fine I believe.

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;


const int row = 52;
const int column = 72;


void printRace(char array1[row][column])   //prints 52 by 72 grid
{
   for (int i = 0; i < row; i++)
   {
      for (int j = 0; j < column; j++)
      {
         cout << array1[i][j];
      }
      cout << endl;
   }
}


void initRace(char array2[row][column])  //prints track layout
{

	for (int i = 0; i < row; i++)
	{
		for (int j = 0; j < column; j++)
		{
			if (i == 0)     //top boundary
			{
				array2[i][j] = 'X';
			}
			else if (i == 51 && j < 65)   //bottom boundary
			{
				array2[i][j] = 'X';
			}
			else if (i == 51 && j < 71)  //prints finish line
			{
				array2[i][j] = 'F';
			}
			else if ((i >= 1 && i <= 51) && j == 0)   //left boundary
			{
				array2[i][j] = 'X';
			}
			else if ((i >= 1 && i <= 51) && j == 71)   //right boundary
			{
				array2[i][j] = 'X';
			}
			else if ((i >= 1 && i <= 35) && (j >= 10 && j <= 29))  //left barrier
			{
				array2[i][j] = 'X';
			}
			else if ((i >= 16 && i <= 50) && (j >= 40 && j <= 64))  //right barrier
			{
				array2[i][j] = 'X';
			}
			else
			{
				array2[i][j] = ' ';
			}
		}
	}
}
