We have been going to the Carlsbad K1 for years and I have seen a few smaller kids leave with whiplash like injury. The electric carts are pretty fast and the track is tight. The issues arise when they mix rookie drivers who have electronically restricted carts with seasoned racers running at full steam. I had one post race 'talk' with a middle aged guy who purposefully speared my sons cart at the end of the straight because he didn't like getting passed by a kid...

Normally thought the track crew has been pretty much on top of bad behavior and keep the entire event pretty tight. I saw a 20'ish girl spin her cart in the turn at the end of the straight and she tried to drive against traffic into the corner entrance...YIKES!!! Luckily the crew was on top of it and killed all the carts before someone got seriously injured or killed.
