Kind of weird in that some of the ideas don’t appeal to me.
They could do some fairly practical things to make it a pretty cool VR/kart mashup.
The technology is amazing! I hope they figure out a way to integrate the VR goggles into a helmet though because someone is going to get hurt. Driving a kart around a track blindfolded while playing video games without a helmet sounds like a lawsuit to me.

I think I’d rather see augmented reality, rather than VR for a kart.
Like Rick said, like a lawsuit waiting to happen driving around if the VR headset fails and you’re driving.
The vehicle is obviously linked to the visor & app, so I’d wager fail safe protocols are implemented, incl hardware shutdown events. Agree that a helmet is probably in order, though.
