The breakaway nose in an interesting point. I believe that as many here have said, the idea is that they break away under contact and you have to re-fit before continuing - effectively costing you the race and therefore discouraging contact. What's odd to me is that here in the UK, these noses have to have the clips that attatch them to the guard rail fastened by wire loops or cable ties to prevent them coming off under impact. This makes them pretty difficult to dislodge. Seems their only use is to allow you to cut the cable tie and remove a nose quickly at the end of the day to put all your kit back in the trailer !
