Jeff and all who responded......Great stories!

Those types of crashes will have to be kept confidential with respect to my wife. My daughter is much like that in the way she'll be intimidated after a mishap.  Just last week I picked her up from school and we road our bikes home. She made a down hill hair pin turn at double the speed......leaned into it real hard but the front wheel drifted off the curb and her fork caught the curb and she went clear over the handle bars.  I gotta say I was tryin' not to laugh because she was MAD!  Didnt take but a few mins of talk to get her back on for the remainder of the ride.
The gocart has really acclimated her to speed. When your butt is 4 inchs from the ground at 25mph it feels like your goin 50!  I have yet to see her freeze up in a tight situation so on a wide open track I have no worries(other than monsterous 250's tackling my girl from behind):)

Well I have two months before her 6th b-day and to make a buying decision. Other than a helmet do you guys have any tips on where to get affordable kids gear?

I just started posting here but it looks like I'll be around for the long haul.
Thanks
