Dirt would make sense. --- Quote from: Pie Crust on May 09, 2014, 03:30:03 PM ---The dangers of racing is your back and your neck. The whip effect can seriously forget you up. You don't necesarilly need to crash. Slamming your breakes or rapidly straighting out after a curve-drift can damage your back. I remember coming back from karting with a back-ache after countless brake slamming. --- End quote --- Go karts and cars are completely different. 2 ton masses of metal can't stop on a dime like go karts can. When I slam my brakes the g-force is nowhere near enough to damage my neck. Same thing with drifting, reattaching to the road doesn't jerk my head to the side. Plus, if you were planning on being a racer you'd get racing bucket seats that protect your neck by restricting head motion. |
