Autocross calf bruise?
After my second auto-cross in two weeks i developed a good side bruise on the left side of my left leg about 3" below my knee. Bruise itself is 3" long by 2" wide right on the bone and i was limping a little after each run lol.
Another FC friend/owner had the same bruise but i don't think as bad since he had good non-factory seats.
Is this common? or am i doing it wrong?, I'm thinking about getting a lower position(can't wear my helmet in car without the top down (convertible) fixed seat with good lateral support with a 5point G-Force 3" wide harness with a main hoop roll bar with horizontal cross bar shoulder high.
I have video's of my horrible/entertaining runs if need be.
Thanks, Vic

Mind you that this car is very loose... im not trying to drift for show, im just entering fast as i can because the car is slow and heavy... I was quicker than both TII's Stock and one with coilovers, and BNR Stage 3 turbo.
