Which has been your worst moment in your motorsport career so far?
 
Michael Bilyy:
– Flipping in Jacksonville, Florida
 
James Peace:
– 2006 Stars of Tomorrow Genk Round
 
Simon Sikes:
– Crashing in Fort Myers Prefinal with a championship on the line
 
Martin Kodric:
– missed final on rgmmc in wackersdorf
 
Ronan McKenzie:
– Being taken off the track by another driver in the 2010 World Finals Heat 1, when I was in 4th place, leaving me at the back. I was 8th quickest in timed qualifying out of 115, and had a second place finish in Heat 2, so I know I could have had better results if that hadn't happened. The driver was disqualified from the heat, so he didnt gain anything by driving like that.
