This reminds me of a go-cart race I was involved in once. 9 or 10 of us
rented the place, and it turns out one person was a maniac - always
smashing into people. Hyperaggressive when passing. Annoyed a lot of
us. So inevitably, he'd end up plowed into the tires head first. But
these go carts had no reverse - to back up you had to lean forward -
like touching your toes - and pull back on the tops of the front tires,
which would slowly worm you backwards. So you *could* extricate, it
just took 10 or 20 seconds.
Of course, when we realized this, it didn't take long to figure out that
as you went by stranded Mr. Collision, you'd fishtail a little and
*thwack* him back into the tires. >:)
Maybe I should get one o' these sets. Where are they reasonably
priced? Angelo, you trying to get rid of any? We can all bring our
supercar tires and lay out a race course :)
