Thank you for clearing that up.

You could argue that the MSA are in danger of coming under a serious injury claim because of them not rigorously enforcing the non contact rule. So having a big rule book isn't going to stop the possibility of a claim, if anything it could increase the possibility of a claim as there are more rules that need to be enforced and if they are found to not have been enforced then it's breaching their own rules leaving them open to prosecution.

I think as long as the karts are scrutineered, there is a flag system, drivers briefing, basic safety regulations regarding the kart and driver, safe track layout and a disclaimer (to remind competitors that it's dangerous if nothing else) then that is enough to warrant reasonable care has been taken.

You have to draw the line somewhere, yes the MSA might have drawn the line a lot further down the road but whether they needed to or not nobody really knows until a claim is made.



Chris.
