I just got into my first accident in september. Broke my ankle on both sides, bruised ribs, right facial bones, my nose, lost my 2 front teeth, lacerated lung, I pretty much got F’d up. Now after walking again and everything, i go back out for my first practice at walden and end up breaking my same ankle again… hopefully by tuesday i’ll be able to walk again. > > this will be my first year in am so hopefully i do good. Novice was too easy last year, beating everyone by half a track n what not. > > i see your quad in your avatar pic, crf hybrid? And why did you quit once you got bumped up to expert? damn man. I know how you feel… I stopped racing simply because I work for my father full time. He owns a landscaping company and its just me and him. If I go down so does he. Not to mention I cant pay my bills,etc. Its not worth it to me to race for trophies. One of my good friends that raced with me that was always a Am class front runner became paralyzed from the waiste down from a twister valley accident 4 years ago. Its hard bringing my quad to his track, and watching him roll up in a wheel chair to watch. Shits not right. also I broke every bone in my right wrist. Some Am Noob at hickory hill cut me off when I was going up the face of the 90 foot double at hickory, so I pinned it to jump over him, and I ended up over jumping and flat landing. Went 120ft. Bent my axle, etc. My wrist was on the side of my arm. Now I have this rare form of arthritis from very high impact breaks. I forgot what type it is but its burtal. I have 50% movement and as I get older, I can move it less and it hurts more. Right now there isnt a surgery to fix it. Hoping within the next 10 years something comes through. my quad is a roll design lobo 2 long travel setup with axis shocks rear pep long travel, yz445 motor, prp frame/flip top sub frame etc. I raced this quad once, and that was at diamondback 3 years ago. Pulled holeshot both motos. When I was racing I was on a lonestar ct310r --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/mx/258354)._
