Default INSANE Go-Kart Crashes Video

http://www.nearlygood.com/video/gocartcrashes.html

Website probably isn't work friendly and there's some language in the background music, parental discretion advised.

Now that's out of the way - this is one of the craziest vids I've seen in a long time. Go-Kart crashes!! The best bit is the Go-Karts 2 wheeling around corners! Enjoy.

Ample evidence of how it can be a very dangerous sport. Flipping would be bad enough without the full weight of the cart on your back and neck. Surprised there isn't a lot more injuries.

Love the bits where they have the karts up on two wheels and manage to get it back under control, top stuff! Thanks for the entertainment mate!

That reminds me of my Karting days... I had some biggies and seeing some of those prangs made me feel the sore bones again

That was some exillerating moments and I am on the computer watching at it. That two wheel stuff was great and I would say some would have sore heads the next day without alcahol.

Hahaha that's AWESOME

LOVE the 2 wheel action!

Some of that looks majorly painful.. damn.. I know go karts are a serious sport and stuff but I still think of it more like paintball or something, just a weekend playaround thing. Guess it's because i've only been like twice and never been to or seen a serious race.
