Some very good points listed above. I also forgot to mention wearing a neck brace shows to my wife that I am taking no compromises with regard to safety, hence by my son wearing the neck brace this does keep he fears at bay. Really its a personal preference thing.
I think there will be many changes in the future of karting, the MSA need to be more pro-active on many safety related issues.......I'm sure its only a matter of time before Nomex suits are mandated in Karting. Its a bit like the situation in F1 and IRL, how many more drivers need to perish before they introduce canopies?.....this could have been done 10 years ago, but hasnt and look who has been lost or badly injured in the meantime :-(
