Go Karts Can Fly

While I imagined that the fastest lap during a go kart race would mean seeing an insanely fast driver smoking the rest, it looks like there are some other methods to cut corners.
Now, truth be told, most of them don't seem to work, especially when it comes to involuntary maneuvers.

As low the center of gravity of go karts may be, it looks like this is only a minor impediment when it comes to taking flight.

Thankfully, it appears like no one was seriously hurt in this crash, as we've seen how nasty falling from an airborne kart can be.

And what's even nastier in such cases is the fact that everything happens incredibly fast, with the wheels of the kart in the front propelling the incoming machine into the air before the rider can even think of hitting the brake.
