I might have an extra Snell 2000 Helmet. Mine is for sure, not sure if my spare is though...

Us crotch rocket guys need all the head protection we can get at blistering speeds of 170+. lol

 

Who/Where are the best deals on helmets?

 

IIRC, you will need any Snell 2000+ starting this year.

Good prices online can be had at Chapperal and Ebay.

I picked up one of these Snell2005 helmets for $120:

I went to sac with just a cheap 75.00 Walmart motocycle helmet. First few days I went I just said I was slower than 13.9 than after that they didn't ask to see my helmet and I didn't volunteer to show it. Pretty much all they care about is if you went 13.9 or faster you better have a helmet on you noggin. They reall don't inspect to closely. But I am sure you can borrow on of ours while your there.

Go to Road Gear in San Jose. Thats where i got mine, I think it was like $120 and the helmet was pretty nice.

 

You mean Road Rider on Monterey Highway? I was thinking of stopping by there.
So is it a Snell SA2000 or 2005 minimum requirement for 2007 NHRA regs?

 

Not sure you need SA. That is important since SA helmets are fire tested, and M helmets aren't. The SA helmets are more expensive. It has always been SNELL Mxxxx in the past up to 10.00.

 

Yes! Thats the name.

 

sorry guys i am not going to be able to come, my lq9 took a crap.

 

WTF Happened???

I'm gonna go to road rider today. I need a new vest anyway, mine shrunk
