I think it will be hard to say the zip nosecone was 100% responsible for launching the second kart due to the speed and intersection angle. Others may see it differently and I accept that.

However both these karts where hit from behind by zips causing the drivers to lose traction at the rear. This seems to confirm the shovelling effect of these nose cones which others have been claiming.

My own son was racing at this event and in another heat he told me his rear wheels where lifted up at the start and it really scared him so I am very concerned after seeing this.

I'm not one for campaigns and I can not believe either zip or the msa want cadet drivers to be put in unnecessary danger. So I think in line with MSA guidance it's up to the scrutineers not to pass any nose cone with any signs of contact to it.
