I flipped my old R6 at about 80mph if that counts. [:-]

minor scrapes and bruises and a broken thumb.

I flipped my go-kart on grass track driving 45 into a turn on the outside edge of drainage ditch, caught a huge rock and barrel rolled it into the ditch once and went head first into the bottom of ditch and then into a LARGE *** tree at about 30 luckily i had my new 5-point harness on and a brand new full steel rollcage put in the day before! Saved my dear life.
it was funny though cuz my mom saw and she came running out in here night gown running screaming my name "TRAVIS, TRAVIS ARE YOU OKAY!!!!!"

i only ended up breaking my wrist from the shock from the steering wheel (which just happend to COMPLETELY plastic!

but all else i was fine
If that count's!!!!

65 around a 20mph turn. Friend was driving and slammed on the brakes...Just feet before the beginning of a bridge, we slid into 6" tall sidewalk and flipped over the edge of a hill into the creek shown. The sidewalk caused the car to flip in midflight ~4 times before landing upside down in the water. Driver side was up against the bank and pax side doors were jammed shut. We all (4 of us) escaped by rolling down the front pax window and swimming out. 1 concussion, 1 busted nose, 3 belt burns and one totaled rental car. Ahhh, the stupidity of Senior year. I will never to stupid sh** like that again! BTW, the pic was taken by the local newspaper on top of the bridge that we had nearly missed, with fire rescue personnel walking on TOP of the BOTTOM of the car!
