me and my kid did get hurt, but could have been a lot worse just glad we're both o.k.

i got  a busted face, almost broke my nose....... and the kid almost broke his foot, and has bruising all over his body, but i guess we should have been using the 5 point harness that were under our arses...... got parts ????????  nice run for the first time out i'd say   ==noob

Be carefully with those shoulder harnesses if you don't have a cage by chance you roll it over the harnesses will keep you pinned in when the top cushes down and you won't be able to duck fown it will crush you just something to think about

That's probably one of the worst feelings ever. When the throttle is stuck and there is nothing you can really do, except hold on. I'm willing to bet those under wear had to be thrown away, LOL.

Agreed. Had the pedal stick on a brand new chevy once, due to a aftermarket floor mat, luckily got it peeled off the floor before anything bad happened.

Had that happen in my lifted sierra a few times. After a burnt set of brakes and a changed of shorts, I calmed down enough to turn the engine off key on so the wheel didnt lock. Took a few minutes to calm the nerves and think rationally. Return spring was weakining happened a few times I was able to pull the petal back. Than the sping snapped and stuck wide open. Was just trying to get it home. Very scary feeling indeed. I was on the street though with other vehicles. luckily I didnt hit anything. Glad you and the kiddo are ok for the most part. Bumps and bruises heal and steel can be fixed.
