My karting injuries and pains:

I have bruises and possible fractured bones at the bottom of my shoulder blades.

My fingers and forearms are sore and bruised

The tops of both my arse cheeks are aching

The inside of my right knee is bruised

My little toe on my right foot is bruised

Very sore right now. Had a hard time sleeping. :blink:

I got a bruise on my back like what Matty got as well from those seats

Also got bruises on both my hips from getting thrown around in the seat around the corners

The inside of my left knee is a bit sore from hitting near the steering column

I think that was from when I was right behind someone coming up to the S bend, they locked up so I was on the brake too & ended up in a spin in the middle of the track. Someone else comes around the corner & is about to straight-line me but luckily they locked it up & hit me more sideways than anything else.

I lifted my knees up just in case but when I got slammed I think my leg took a whack. Decent impact anyway though lol, sent me from the track over the kerb into the dirt :) That was fun dragging the kart back onto the track in the least widest part of the course!

I'd like to thank my driving partner Dan in regards to our result, as it took both of us working to the best of our ability to fail so hard.

Most of you guys that have bruises is due to the seat being too loose.

Next time make sure you choose a tighter fitting seat to stop you from moving around so much .

My co driver skinny f*k and he picked kart :)

or they could take your option and start packing on a few extra kg's over winter :)

    • Yeah I also looked at Plazmaman, but, it ended up alot  cheaper getting black ones through EFI when you also added in the delivery cost
    • Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
