I went ass over tea kettle twice in that career. Walked away from both. I watched more than a few times when the track was red flagged and some poor sumbi!tch went away with red lights flashing.

You can get hurt doing anything and I've heard that snow skiing is far more dangerous than karting. My point is that you don't need a whole lot of HP (speed) to have fun if that's what you want to do.

And here's a very important theory: when there is a race going on with a matched class participating that has qualified under the scrutiny of the race organizers, you have a good chance of having a safe race.

Now, open the track to some guys "having fun" and see what happens. That's when I saw the worst injuries.
