Default I flipped a golf cart at work yesterday

lol, it was funny as hell but i was lucky i didnt get really hurt or caught. anyway theres a steep 4 foot hill between where #1 tees off and the driving range, and i was gonna get a driving start from the walkway, and try to jump that little hill, well, instead i just went down the hill very fast and when i went to make a right hand turn at the end i hit the brakes to get it to drift the turn or just do a 360 and the back end came around and then, on wet grass, it somehow caught traction and it just tipped right over on me. My friend watching said he couldn't see me from where he was at then my head just popped up. i made sure i was ok then i looked aorund and lifted the cart back up and took it to the basement. The cart had no damage but the top roof part landed on my hand and its still swollen and part of my foot got caught by the bottom of the cart. and right beore i attempted the jump my frind told me there wasnt anyway you could flip a golf cart... i proved him wrong. damn, it was fun though

I worked at a golf course for a few years, started out as a cart boy. We used to go up on #8 which was pretty sloped downhill, and sorta sideways on the fairway. We'd start up by the teebox on the cartpath, and throw it into neutral. Pick up a bunch of speed, cut into the fairway, and throw the parking brake on. Multiple 360's

word, I've cut a 360 before on grass, nothing majr so far, also pulled off some hot drifts. to get to the basment you go down a steep hill then right and your there and it was raining on day and I drifted the thing around the turn on wet pavement and pulled it right into the basement. I've also slid them sideways into blocked off parking space. they are fun as hell to mess with

Ah yes, the Neutral trick :-p. On the older carts we used to put tees in the throttle :rick:, they hauled ass .
