They had helmets for loan if you forgot yours, very cool, it was a great and a well organized event, I felt safe in knowing my car was not going to get in any trouble.
You have to feel that way before letting loose knowing that if you F@#K up you cant make a claim. Hands up to pass and only on the open straights. |

I took this from the HADA board good advice..
As long as the helmet has a snell M2000 or better sticker and it's new it's safe enough. A new cheap helmet is much safer then a used expensive helmet with an unknown history. If you payed $350 for a helmet I hope you got a quality Snell SA motorsports helmet (rated for multiple impacts and provides fire protection). Instead of waisting your money on an expensive Snell M series motorcycle helmet (unless you ride a motorcycle of course ) Open faced Snell M2005 helmets can be purchased for less then $100, but they may not be the most comfortable. You do get what you pay for afterall. In fact I paid well under $200 including taxes for a Zamp brand full face (with a shield) Snell SA2005 motorsports helmet from Carl Wener at TRAC racing. Zamp Racing - Auto - FSA-1 I find it almost as comfortable as my $350 Bell Snell SA2000 open faced helmet. |

I.M.O. I would never buy a helmet online unless I knew exactly what I wanted, first go to a dealer and try many on.
Don't cheap out or get somthing that "kinda fits". That's your mellon your messing with. I'll ask around for a good place in the G.T.A. might even get myself a new one too as it's been a while. I heard that some guys replace their's every five years to keep up with any new developments. |
