I have to say my scariest and the worst for me was, racing in the Le Man 24 hour race in France a few years ago, I had to go off line through the Mulsanne kink to avoid a slower car, at that point I was travelling at 239 mph, I think it was then that the left rear tyre punctured and sent me out of control into the barriers. I hit the barriers 4 times, I got out and looked back at the Porsche 956 just then what was left of the car burst into flames.... I had actually gotten out without knowing I had several broken bones from the 40g + impact... I then collapsed... it was 3 days before I regained conciousness.
I survived to race another day, although everyone I knew thought I was "mad" which I am.

Whoops.
But 40gs is a little exaggerated, is it not?
