Injured

[charger]

off road injury school boy error my thumb & base of thumb got banged up at the weekend at a pay & play, the steering wheel gave my poor thumb a right whack. Ripped ligaments & damaged tendons. No breaks so it's just swollen & bruised. I also broke a brake hose whilst on a decent nearly shit my shorts.

You have to do the same with crank handle starting cars. Keep your thumb outside the handle so if the engine fights back it just slips past your palm.
