Rough day at the track

So I went out to get some practice in today. Everything was going great until the 3rd lap. I came into a 4th gear sweeping left hand turn when the bead separated from my front right wheel. My rim dug into the dirt and sent myself and the quad cart-wheeling through the field. I taco-ed my tie rod and broke a hand guard mount. I'm fine just lots of missing skin.

Man it takes alot of sidewall force to pull the bead away you must have went into a dip or rut while in the turn? Glad you're ok. machines can be fixed

Thanks, jon. and everyone else. Yeah, I think it dropped into a rut. I'll tell you what, those Hipers are strong. Not a scratch on them...
