Okay, let's assume that one finds beheadings somewhat distasteful and messy.
If I am also looking for a helment to be used primarily in Karting and 1 to
2 BMWCCA events per year, do I still go with SA95 or an expensive kelvar
counterpart ?  has anyone used kelvar helments in karting applications ?
any suggestions are greatly appreciated.  when replying to the digest,
please CC:sdg2@domain.elided
