alan, here's another news flash, the phones are ringing off the wall at B&B, MPR, East Texas and others, who build $100,000 rollers for Super Stock as well over at Tilberg, Gulius, Watters waiting in line for their $30,000 engines as well over at Rossler and McClay for one of their $5,000 transmissions.

I'm in good company with many of your competitiors!

It ain't news to me. It is amusing though.

I have followed this discussion because it is an interesting debate, or it was, but when price was brought up I thought about these helmets. If price dictated which is best this should be the safest helmet made.

I use a SA2005 full face Simpson....and I don't even race.

FIA stuff is good, but unfortunately not allowed in NHRA. Had to confiscate a brand new pair of FIA gloves at Orlando from a racer. He had to come back & show SFI gloves. Yep. He got the FIA gloves returned to him at the end of the event.

That goes double for me too Phillip!

Or instead, I could freshen up the engine and converter for my Cavalier, and change the camshaft to one with more duration, plus a set of headers made for it. Then I might have a chance to run heads up (and be competitive), with Ed's Gremlin (since he out-runs me by 1-1.5sec.)! Now that would be fun, two against the norm stockers running different classes, but heads up and nearly equal et's!!!!

A much better use of that much money than just for a helmet, I think!

Heck, I could afford a trip out to E'town to meet/race with Ed, and his Gremlin....that would be more fun than spending that much money on a helmet. I'll agree with Ed on another thing....it's time to put a fork in it....

Well the poll is done.
Interesting results, I was suprised to see how many of you are using a SA open face helmet. The results also showed that the majority of us do not use a SA full face helmet contrary to the few that had to call my decision making and vehicle safety into account, I expected that would be the case.

Thank you to all that took part in the poll, Especially those that didn't have to make it a mud slinging contest.

Cheers, Phillip

Add the numbers. The majority wear SA helmets, the majority wear full face helmets. The highest percentage wear SA full face helmets. Spin it any way you want but those are the facts. Maybe you should go for the Obama administration, they seem to view math the same way you do
