I guess you guys have a lot of faith that you'll never get in any serious accident if you are ok with open face helmets. In fires you will burn your face off, and if you impact anything with your face you are toast.
One of the most famous open-face wearing driver was Dale Earnhardt. While it wasn't what actually killed him, his face struck the steering wheel in his Daytona crash. If he had survived he probably wouldn't have been able to drive again. Whatever, though. If you want to risk it that's fine.
