That looks like it would leave a mark to. I thought it was bad with one to the ankle.

LOL, thats girl really got what was coming to her! Wasnt that bad though!

It is only funny because she was able to duck out of the way and take it on the shoulder. If she had taken a direct shot in the nose or mouth and had to make a trip to the emergency room It would not have been anything to laugh at.
It's hard to tell if that is a BMX bike track or RC or multi use but there's a lesson here and that's responsibility. Just like boating power vehicles yield the right of way to non-powered. This is a bit of a sensitive subject because a while back I caught a couple of older teens harassing younger kids at the BMX track with their gas buggies. They basically ran them off the track and told them to stay off while they were racing. Now the BMX club who maintains the track has banned RC vehicles from the track. Unfortunately it only takes a couple of bad apples to ruin it for everyone. I almost always have kids around when I'm running my truck, it just attracts them but I'm always careful and if I need too I explain to the younger ones that this truck will hurt them really bad if it hits them and ask them to stay by me or in a safe spot while it's running.

There I feel better now. :027:

Good points. No matter what type of track it is, if everyone respected every one else, it wouldn't be a problem. At the very least, they should only allow the track to go in one direction.

i havent seen the video but i was almost taken out my a runaway buggy at a race a few months back. im sure it would have broken my leg or knee if i hadnt jumped. it was on the back straight with a tripple. it cleared the double and hit the single and came right at me full speed (right after the tripple theres a left into a u turn to a right to finish off the back straigh). luckily i saw it just in time!

Yeah there is some safety factors you have to add in while driving. I have ran into myself. It happens but just don't want it to. That sucks scott that you can't run on the track now for some poot heads. I wonder what they think of not playing on the track now.

It doesn't take a big car to leave a mark either, I had a HPI RS4 Rally that I dropped a Epic quad mag. 11x1 in (when they first came out) and was testing it out next to my house. I was hitting at least 35 or so, and this one mentally handicapped guy that lives at a house across the street came out to watch........he wasn't really paying attention to where the car was going and it slammed into his bare foot. It hit hard enough to leave a couple little cuts, from the front body clips (was running it without the body), and popped off a ball link. He was super apologetic and thought he killed my car, I was more worried about hitting his foot!

i have hit myself a few times and hit brother a few times but all that happens at one tim or another.

I think you need to get out more.

would you find it so funny if it happened to you??

HotnCold · 03.01.2006, 09:30 PM

yea - i mean that must of been a total surprise - i mean it wasnt like she was riding her bike in a place where rc cars were flying all around her - and on a huge jump that a 12 lb rc-truck just launched off the other direction - i mean who would of thought that was a bad choice to ride up a jump that you couldnt see the other side of. Man what a coincedence - i mean really - could you imagine the chances of getting hit by a rc-car, riding your bicycle on a rc-car jump. The odds are staggering ..... I mean imagine what would of happened if she had a brain in her head....
