The MSA could ban the Zip nosecone tomorrow and it would not affect us as our karts have flat ones.
Making your views known to the MSA is absolutely the right thing to do but was this a recent action floowing the posts on this forum about the two incidents resulting in broken collar bones?
The reason I ask this is not to have a pop at you but to come back to the evidence issue. With the incidents involving your son it is quite possible that youn had the best view as you were probably watching him. Now at those meetings there would have been a CoC, MSA Steward and scrutineers so if you had immediately reported your concerns to any of them then they could have looked at the two karts and maybe reported a potential problem.
Get one of these very week and it starts to build a pattern that the MSA could investigate.
It looks as if the MSA are taking this issue seriously but as THR said in his post following the meeting it could not be proven that the nosecone waas the main cause of the injury.
I would hope that any incident at a meeting from now on will be looked at by the officials to see if a Zip nosecone is involved.
On the helmet issue i am not sure that people coming into the sport would buy the new helmets if they were cheaper as often the kids want to have the same as the other drivers. It is pretty stupid in a way to spend a lot of money having them painted (I have done it) as if the do have a flip the helmet will often be a write off. When Jmaes had a flip it was with an unpainted one nut I know of cases of the flip happening on the first time out with the newly painted helmet -Ouch!
