It is very common seeing this with new karters at the track for the first time, but I have also seen this with veteran racers that have been around motorsports longer than I've been alive. HIDE YOUR HAIR. If you see someone at the track, politely tell them to strap it up. Head Socks work really well for managing loose hair. In this video, it doesn't account for someone getting rear ended or falling out of the seat. There are many possible ways that hair can get ripped out. I've seen videos of people who were scalped from this exact thing. This is not to create fear or panic, but to educate so we don't ever see this happen at the track. I get especially protective with the Junior drivers.
