Chancer Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Sounded like a jammed throttle especially as it was still spinning the wheels when it was blocked at a standstill, I dread to think what was under them.When I raced as well as the obligatory external battery kill switch I also always fitted an internal one that I could reach, sometimes though people dont wire them correctly and whilst they may function in the paddock for scrutineering, the alternator can keep the ignition running on a wide open throttle, I bet there is no scrutineering for these types of events, I am surprised that there havnt already been fatalities, also with these X games motorcycle stunt competitions.
