It could have gone worse.....

I once did the WHOLE length of the Rye House back straight (end of Stadium all the way to Pylon) having failed to notice the throttle was jammed full open, trying to climb along the whole length of the accelerating kart to get my left hand onto the brakes. Once I did, my body weight rammed the brake pedal all the way home which catapulted me over the kart, still holding the brake pedal and front bumper, to now find I was AHEAD of the kart, flat on my back with the kart now CHASING me. I stopped JUST before the end of the Pylon..... which used to end in a VERY nasty, stinky pond. Phew! It wore out the toes of my boots and left superb grooves down the back of my leathers!

Now that WAS how to look a PROFESSIONAL plonker!
