i'm in the business of fixing broken faces so I've seen some nasty trauma even though i'm still very early in my career... makes me biased towards full-face protection but of course the way we enjoy our cars on track is actually very safe so luckily most of us with full-face helmets will just be less comfortable physically to feel safer.

some guys say you should never go on a track without full cage, hans, fire suppression, etc. the pros/cons to a full face vs open are at face value (pun intended). decide what you're okay with but 100% wear some kind of eye protection if you don't have a visor. I've had plenty debris come in the window and hit my shield ... not enough to tear my cheek open but maybe cause some eye damage or distract you enough to wreck....

then you just have to pick one that looks cool and fits your budget!
