I don't know that it is the most shocking crash you will see.

My contender would be a race where someone who had been knocked off the track waited for the next lap and then threw stones at the person he thought had done it!

At another event someone left their kart at the edge of the track, the leaders came round and ignored the waved yellows, just avoiding the kart but the following pack ploughed into it at speed, resulting in a 12 kart pile up, including two karts over or on top of the 'target'. Had the driver still been in his kart, he would had suffered serious injury.

The leaders claimed they had slowed down, enough for them to miss the kart but the rest of the pack were unsighted (the Esses at Clay) and concentrating on keeping their position with the leaders, so ploughed in. The lesson is that when a yellow is waved, you must identify why, rather than assume it is a chance to catch up to the kart in front because the incident hasn't occurred between you.

But I agree, it looks very nasty.
