My son broke his collar bone and suffered a concussion in a WKA karting event with the collar on. The doctor said that the collar does nothing in compression (ie: when landing on your head). The newer collars do offer more support for rearward head movement (karts don't have headrests) by adding some bracing behind the head.
It does seem to be best to turn loose of the kart in a bad wreck. ...not a real good option in our cars...
