If I HAVE to have the SA2000+ anyway I dont see why I would need another helmet also.

SEMA! Sweet! Problem is, my event is the weekend of the coast run, so I have to make sure I have one in advance and if you didnt find one I'd not have time to order and ship. Thanks for the offer though! Is SEMA the first weekend in Nov? If so I maaaayyy see you there. My machinist said I could go with him but I have to talk to him when I'm back home to see whats up.

Just wanted to bump this as I will be needing a helmet by the end of August for the Driving Clinic at Buttonwillow Raceway. Any new suggestions? I'll need it for this and future road course days as well as drag.

I have a G-Force G750 open-face helmet. I have no complaints and it's one of the cheaper ones out there.

I'm a big fan of open face helmets. I get a little claustrophobic in full helmets so it was a pretty easy choice for me.

Well, I finally picked one up. Went with the Simpson Bandit. SA2005 full-faced. It even came with a bag, so that was cool.

That looks like a Top Gear Stig helmet. I likes.

Yeah, I paid a little extra for one I thought that looked cool. :)

I have a smoked shield coming for it as well. Should be here by this weekend. A lot better than trying to wear sunglasses under the helmet. Should look cool too. :thumbsup:
