I am not happy with the obvious (to me) launch effect the zip nose cone has. I am in the process of making an address to the MSA. However having read lots on the previous threads the MSA want evidence. I am trying to get as much of that as I can. However can anyone provide any evidence of front on front impact of karts that have the flat fronted nose cones fitted? What happens on impact in your experience? Do they launch like the zip cones? Do the children get flung out and crash into each other as has previously been suggested?

Since the 'Zip' nose cones issues have been raised has anyone seen a zip kart at scrutineering on the floor having the height of it's nose cone from the floor checked? Or are you the owner of a zip who has been rejected through scrutineering as your nose cone was damaged?

Thanks in advance for any help.
Helen
