Some of my friends were there. It was at the UROC comp in Portland Indiana.

Driver blacked out and the throttle got stuck. One person got ran over but was OK. Driver got 2 black eyes, possible broken ribs, and one hell of a headache.

Did you notice the guy who was inches from being hit as he rolled out of the way right before it stalled on top of the other rig?

I'd need a clean pair of shorts

I know those buggies have kill switches, but after the driver getting knocked out, kinda makes them useless. They need the kill switches like on the jet skis. Let go of the steering wheel and a cord kills the motor. Only need the cord attached to one hand/wrist, so the driver can operate the vehicle still. Just a thought....
