well the broken arm and fractured ribs was when a kart was half on my kart and it hit me hard  and the jarred hips was from where i slid out of a corner and the next corner i could'nt make so the kart went into a pile of woodchips and me and my kart went in the air for 2 seconds and my body was half out of the kart in the air then i landed and kart seats really hurt when u land on rock  :(    so i cant bend down otherwise my hips  really hurt also my club is really nice so the owner of the club/track came over until my dad came  :)

sounds like that hurt liam!  :o  i havent had that badder injuries though: broken wrist, bad wiplash, bruised chest and part of face (from where front left wheel clipped the wall and forced the steering column and wheel into chest and face). hate it though when you have injuries though cause you cant race! when i broke my arm i was not allowed to race for 14 weeks.
liam hope you recovered quickly though so you could get racing again!?

Wow, unconscious!  :o

Buzzard12

Someone spun in front of me at the start of a race a little while ago and I launched of their rear wheel, almost coming out of my kart, it actually bent my axle so much it cracked, anyway my knee got caught on the steering wheel, and my knee has been painful ever since. That was probably about four months or so ago.

ive already cutted my knees due to imprudent drivers that dont brake when trying to overtake and fly over you and their thing that holds the chain (i dont know its name in english) opened my knees in two different accidents...

there was one accident where the cable thing that holds the spark plug (i dont know its name eighter) would jump into my back, giving me a very good shock treatment! lol

but back in 2002, the year where i got my state championship, i had the worst accident of my life!
i was something about 200 miles away from home, racing with this old V4 2stroke engine... i was running faster than the Parillas and PCRs!! as i tried to overtake one of them and he didn't saw me. we were at the fastest corner of the track (we were doing it like about 80 km/h, with a top end speed of 130 km/h at that track). well... i flipped over! but i didn't ejected the kart unfortunately, so the kart landed in my back, the engine hits my helmet and my helmet hits the track. i was completely knocked out, don't remember a thing! i just remember waking up at the local hospital with this cute blonde female doctor asking me if i was ok... my dad was beside her but i didn't see him, as i answered her: "well, i feel like im in heaven! did i die or something?"
my dad and her started laughing hard!! i wasnt getting anything that was going on there, and they told me i had a severe accident!

i had my left clavicle broken, a helmet and a suit thrown to the trash, and a head injury (i think they call it Cranial Trauma in English, idk)... that was in the begining of the year, i was able to get back on practicing a couple of weeks later to lost my fear (which is pretty normal to get aprehensive in the first few runs) and be competitive again!

and i won the championship by the end of that year! \o/

::

oh, and a fuel leak burnt my testicles once! hehe
but they are normal right now, and working properly! ;)

i think i was a good driver by the time, as i didn't get involved in a lot of accidents, and would avoid lots of them as well! :D
here on KRP, things are a little bit different tho! hahahahaha
If I die tomorrow, I'd be alright because I believe that after we're gone, the spirit carries on! :: If you no longer go for a gap that exists, you're no longer a racing driver.

If I read all this I feel special that I never had any lol.
