Shoei and Arai are good value for money helmets. I would not buy any less.

As for the price of a helmet......................
How much is your head worth?

A simple neckbrace is the best you will do for neck support.
A HANS device would probably not be any more benificial in a go-kart, and might actually cause more injury in a big crash in a go-kart.

I haven't been involved with karts since the nineties but I'm pretty sure thaat the AKA is the controlling body, and I never needed a medical until I raced in the CIK series which used to be governed by the FIA, and you needed an International A licence. I don't think you will be needing this.

As for using a motorcross helmet........maybe on a "motorcross" bike.
