This Lat-G feature story hits a little close to home, the racer Stephen is from the KC area and may of my friends that do the endurance racing thing know him and the team he was driving for.

Other than not practicing his egress from the car in a hurry, his other mistake was opening his helmet visor to help see better. I have always been guilty of racing with my visor up to aid in vision and for comfort.
I have made plans to purchase a new scratch free visor for my helmet and will run with it down all the time now as well as acquiring a full set of fire retardant underwear and a balaclava for my head.
What safety upgrades are you all working on this season?
