Arini Mohamed Adinan’s helmet was thrown off as her vehicle went slamming into the tyre barrier, an eyewitness said.
She had been racing against her friends Karmeli, Zeth, and Julie at a track in Bengkong, near Singapore in Indonesia’s Riau Islands, on February 21 – the day before she was to turn 33.
A worker who raced to help her after the crash described how her ‘very long hair’ was stuck in one of the rear wheels.
Arini, from Singapore, was rushed to hospital but was pronounced dead on arrival.
Her friend Zeth told local media she had been unable to brake her own kart after watching the crash.
She said: ‘I had to force the kart to hit the tyre barrier to stop, but the engine was still running.’
Julie said the group had helped each other put on their helmets, while Karmeli added: ‘She did wear a hair net.’
The four had been the only people racing on the track at the time, Zeth said.
Arini was buried on what would have been her birthday, at a cemetery next to the Pusara Aman Mosque in Singapore.
