Even If you believe your car is too slow to warrant a good helmet, Remember in the other lane may be a 4000# 140 MPH Cobra Jet.

Wow and you're bragging about that. Hey if you've got a $26 head, I guess you protect it with a $26 helmet.

You guy's want to wear a Simpson helmet? Reeaaalllly? That guy killed Dale Earnhardt, No way am I going to buy any of his junk. I'll take my wife to vegas for the weekend with the money I saved instead.

Cheers.

If the labelling on the helmet means anything what does the price have to do with the protection afforded by the helmet?
Do the $600.00 helmets really cost that much more to manufacture OR are you just paying for the manufacturers name on the helmet?
I have two G-Force Snell M2000 helmets and feel safe with either of them on.
One has an SFI SPEC 41.2A on it so it is good to 1/1/2014, haven't checked the other one yet!
