Well it happend a couple of weeks ago. I wanted try out race to see how my raptor would do. So i went and bout nerf bars and a tether switch because you have to have them or you cant race. So on July 5 I signed up and had my prents write a note for my causin to be my leagal gardian. The race was at Royal Mountian. I had to have a gardian because im only 17.

Well evry thing was going great and then the quads were up next to go out for the practice race. I was real nevice and a coule of the doubles were huge. well i went out there and hammerd on her i was doing pretty good for the first 4 laps. I was clearing all the jumps with no problem until that final lap i was in 5th place i was screaming up the hill and i took the first corner then the double and then came another double i came off it a little cocked in the air and landed on one back tire. And let me tell you something I came hard. I came down so hard that i brock my leg on impact. It hurt so i drove around the next corner and pulled off of the track got off the raptor and sat on the nerf bar. then i new for sure it was broken cause my leg was straight but the lower part of it fell right over.

So the medicks came over to me and asked a lot of questions. I told them i wasnt going in there meat wagon. so my other causin took me to the hospital in her car. After we got there the had to take my boot off. I only had my winter boots on but the wanted to cut it off but i said no you are going to pull it off i need the this winter. so he goes ok but it going to realy hurt. I said it cant get any worse. so he took it off and i didnt even flinch and he goes man your tough.

Then they took me in to xrays and i had broke my leg in for places just above my ankel. then the put this cheese little suprt on my and sent me home till the next day. Well the next day i had to go back for surgry. they put 2 metel plates in my leg and 13 screws. That realy mesd my summer up and my job. Im 17 and its my first broken bone i mean bones hehe. Oh ya and i didnt do a think to my raptor i was out putting around the yard with it the other day.
