Default Helmets for trackday....

Who has them? If you do please chime in....

I need one cause I dont have one.
Who else needs a helmet to use?
I am just wondering really, how many helmets there will be floating around and who doesn't mind letting someone use them for a quick run every now and then.
If almost everyone has a helmet and a few have extra's I think we should be doin alright.
I am the first to admit, im not a helmet owner, guess I have to invest in one sometime soon.

That's the cutoff for roll bars/roll cage iirc. Helmet was <13.9 .

Our friendly TRack day organizer said that there should be a few helmets, check the thread at the top or maybe the pre-pay thread.

If you have a $10 head put it inside a $10 helmet - Evil Knievel
