Facts lacking:
If a crash cart pulled out onto an active qualifying race-fault, track management
If there was an ambulance there that did not have qualified techs-fault, track owner
Anyone blaming the parents must not have kids! We teach our kids to compete to be the best and this kid was no amateur at this sport. It was no fluke, it was bad track management on that day!

The gentleman driving the cart had a very rough time following the accident. A very nice man who along with the track owner was very broken up.
I just don't know how money can make up for their daughter. If they truly wanted to make the sport safer, that is not accomplished by putting a venue out of business. Nor leaving some very nice people without jobs. There are other ways of improving the sport that their daughter loved.

Well, the lawsuit is a civil matter to be decided by a jury. No matter what happens, no win all around.

I feel for the parents losing their girl. Their pain has to be immense. I have a 1 year old girl and cannot imagine losing her. I wouldn't put her on a racetrack without realizing that something totally unexpected could happen. Hiring a lawyer means they think someone else is to blame for their consent.
The grand jury decided against criminal charges. Not sure how a civil suit will possibly prevail (all OJ comments can go to hell): http://www.9news.com/news/article/20...go-kart-death-
