Hi Sorry to here about your misfortune.

The standard replt appears to be a minimum of 6 weeks to recover, it may feel ok but going back in the kart sooner risks delaying your return to karting as they are still fragile.

I use to test how ready I was by pushing my hand into that area where the injury was. If it was painful and made me wince then I did not go back until i could do it painfree. I tried going back sooner a few times but they just could not take it.

Did you change anything in your seat, I wore rib protector, foam padding, extensions for the seat, but it wasn't until I changed karts and the seat stays were wider spaced that I stopped having rib problems.

Good luck
