Got $10 on @Booth.
Smaller, lighter drivers have a big advantage in karts (even if they're carrying an extra 5cm) because driver weight is a big fraction of the total vehicle weight. So consider your bet carefully.
I know a few people who've been hurt karting. Rib fractures are not unusual, and another friend had brake failure and rear-ended another friend at high speed causing back issues to this day. But then again, another person was literally run over by a kart, and escaped unscathed.
