the only good thing about the claim culture is it does make people more careful, certainly at work i take care to avoid creating hazards.

One thing everyone has overlooked is that he went karting straight after !

If anything is super hard on the neck and shoulder muscles then karting is.

If you've not been karting then try it, but be prepared for an aching day next day !

I think you certainly aggravated a neck injury by karting.

Karting is probably more to do with the neck injury than the braking. The extra weight of the helmet probably set you off.

I would suggest massage. As in professionally trained massage, not the "happy ending" kind. What they will do is feel around until they find the tight muscles, then push hard on them. Hurts like hell but it's the only way to loosen them up. You can do this yourself once you know what you are looking for, but I would try a few proffessional visits first.

Also watch your posture, if your shoulders are slouched forward it will load up the muscles in the back of your neck.
Good Luck.
