View Full Version : Need a Helmet for the Track
I want to head over to G-Ville this week to run the car at the strip up there, trying to break into the 12's before the new mods arrive weather permitting. I have been told by a couple of guys up there that I will need a helmet to run. OSW and Bradenton have not got on me yet, but I don't want to drive up to the track only to not run.
I know its to late to order one online as the best they can do is 2 days shipping or pay over $60 for overnight shipping. So I was hoping some shops in the area might be selling open face helments for a good price.
any suggestions where to look/shop.

$90 for the HJC one I bought from there
Just got back from the one near me.. I almost did not get one.. Lucky for me I cracked my head open when younger, so the XL helmet fit me. When U got there a guy had just purchased the large size one and all they had left was one open face in Xl and once closed face in XL.
$90 OTD for the HJC CS-5 is a damn good deal considering a bunch of places online wanted more..
I really need to buy a DS loop now, but I'm going to buy a new driveshaft to replace the 2 part one that came stock, so I'll do them at teh same time. Now lets just hope the weather is nice tomorrow so I can break into the 12's
