why do you always havee to wear the thong except during racing? that doesnt really make sense...wouldnt you generally be going faster during racing?
Control Line Racing is typically flown with 2, 3 or 4 models in the same circle. Models are pitting at different times, taking off again and sometimes you may get your lines tangled with someone else's. Going without a safety thong allows the pilot to switch hands and unwind the lines.

Picture the thong hanging down from your wrist as you pass your hand over another (with a slower airplane) pilot's head. Maybe it hangs up with undesirable results.
