I've been looking into buying a helmet so I race my car at the track but is there anything I need to look for? I guess I'm asking does the helmet have to be anything special or just any helmet will do.

What about these:

But seriously should I buy something like this or is there a way I can buy one cheaper - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6749

in one of my trade magazines they just did a whole write up on helmets, they said number one never buy one online every brand and model fits different, so at least go try one on and then buy online. Second is make sure it's snell 95 (I think it's 95) rated that's what the nhra requires, get one tha'ts comfortable and not heavy feeling. The face has 3 choices, open, wide open, and narrow open, many drg racers prefer narrow so they don't get distracted by the car in the other lane, if doing road course type get the wide opening, the open face doesn't have the protaction, and most sanctioning bodies require goggles

95 is expiring this year i believe, 2000 is whatd id look for cuz ull can use it for a while
