I hope this article is aimed at children aged 4-12. Getting started can give you some help.

How to choose the safety equipment for karting?

As we all know, small racing (karting) is a dangerous sport, and safety equipment is a crucial part in motorsports.

Helmet

The first is the helmet, be sure to choose carefully.

Helmets for children should meet the following standards for go-kart helmets:

• SNELL FIA CMR2007, CMS2007, CMR2016: Required for kart riders under the age of 15, such as Cadet riders.

• SNELL K2010, K2015: These are the specific standards for kart helmets for MSA club kart racing including Super1.

• SNELL SA2010, SA2015: These are not karting specific standards, but are available for MSA club karting competition, including Super 1.

• FIA 8859-2015: This is not a specific standard for kart helmets, but can be used on MSA club karts and Super 1.

Neck brace

After talking about the helmet, there is another protective gear that protects life - neck guard! Under the circumstance that parents can still exercise guardianship rights over their children before they are minors, please make sure that the children wear a neck brace to drive a small car! !!

Racing suit

For small racing drivers, it is generally possible to choose to buy a racing suit specifically for karting;

The difference between karting and touring car racing suits depends on the certification standards. Karts are CIK-FIA certified, and RVs are FIA certified. The kart racing suit needs to be wear-resistant and anti-scalding, and the RV needs to be fire-resistant and burn-resistant.

Rib 

There are many brands of rib guards, which generally only protect the ribs. It is also very important to protect the chest of children who are just starting to drive small racing cars, so it is very important to choose rib guards with chest protection.
