Button cracks a rib in Kart

Formula 1 driver Jensen Button cracked a rib racing in a go-kart in the off-season - glad to see this happens to everyone and not just me! A few years back, I broke a rib driving a go-kart at the local in-door karting place. I didn't crash or anything, but I'm quite tall and the karts were extremely small so it was quite difficult for me to sit in them without the seat bashing into my rib cage. So somewhere about half way through a 50 minute race I broke a rib and suffered through the rest of the race. Breaking a rib is a lot more unpleasant than breaking say your wrist because they can't set it so you spend 1-2 weeks in agony as the break in the rib moves around. I don't recommend it.
