Forza - Forza injury Empty Forza injury

Post  Avanti 63r1025 Mon May 14, 2012 1:25 am

You're going to laugh at this, Lord knows I did. I feel as if a tendon in my R. hand to my index finger has tightened or the like. When I curl my finger my middle knuckle pops out and wants to take a shortcut because the tendon won't stretch as required. I can pinch the base of my R. index finger while I curl it and the knuckle doesn't pop out.

I'll be away from Forza for a few days with my finger in a splint. I hope there is a way to gently stretch that tendon. I guess nobody can say I ain't hardcore. Very Happy

Yea WWCSD... in honor of the fallen but never to be forgotten, I think you need to ask yourself What Would Carroll Shelby Do? Hed harden the f**k up and race. I find that is a good rule of thumb but I suppose thats also why I have a disability rating from the VA for being broken and none of it is mental.... Mostly because they told me those head problems were always there... Whatever Rolling Eyes

Use it as an excuse to get a wheel!! Thats what i did. Those triggers killed my index fingers. You used to be able to swap throtle to the other side or maybe use the right stick for throttle/ brake,
I did that for the gt series.

I'm a med-40 discharge from the Army with a 20% rating. Are you a med-40 also? Squid, are we med-brothers?

Maybe I should go out to the sidewalk and HULK SMASH! That might make my finger feel better scratch

I jocolor jest. It's feeling a bit better this afternoon. I should make it to qualifying on Thursday.

Added edit: I liken what I did to my finger last week, to standing in a doorway pressing your arms into the door frame. When you walk out of the doorway, your arms rise all by themselves. I must have done something similar to that to a tendon in my hand/finger. It's better now, due to rest. Last weekend was weird as I couldn't curl my finger very much without my middle knuckle popping out.
