I got this from the KTMTalk General Mini section:

"Beginning March 10 all 65cc, 85cc, and 150cc Youth classes will require neck protection either a neck roll type device or a LEATT Brace. REM will have neck rolls available for racers who do not have them. Should a racer in these categories choose not to wear neck protection a waiver will be available for parents to sign stating that they do not wish their child to use such a device. REM recommends that all racers of all ages use whatever technology is available to lessen the severity of injuries. It is entirely logical to think of a future where this type of equipment is mandatory for all motocross competition."

Thumbs up from the Mastrocolas. It's tough to deal with spinal cord injuries, but when you see things like this where track owners, promoters, and sanctioning bodies have the guts to make a stand, at least the injury seems not to be in vain. Way to go!!
