I haven't sold my sidewinder buggy yet.... but....

Went out with my bro this weekend. I got a little over zealous...

Couldn't save it from rolling

Did you put your arm out? It was a little hard to see. Just a word on that, which may not be so obvious to everyone: don’t put your hand out trying to stop a roll over or to “break your fall”, that usually results in a broken wrist, broken arm or worse. Might not be as much of a problem with these little buggies of yours but it is with the bigger ones.

I haven’t researched it but the product liability lawsuits for the Honda Odyssey FL250s back in the day must have been horrendous. The first Odys had a partial roll cage (the yellow ones), then the red ones had a full(er) one, but both versions of FL250 I think had wrist straps to trap your hands on the steering wheel to prevent injury. Both had 4 point harnesses, of course.

Yes, I did put my arm out. My initial reaction was to throw my leg out but the side bar prevented it. I was somewhat aware that I didn't want that same bar to roll onto my arm. I guess i was just lucky it was low speed. I'm aware of wrist straps in other racing but not practical when there's no roll bar 🫣
