need some help with choosing a helmet

[etfhb]

i have a vert so i need a helmet for the strip.

i figured a snell 2005 would be a wise choice so it would be legal for
a greater period. ( i am a total noob at this )

how expensive do you go? anything wrong with this cheap one:

i will only see the strip a few times a year.

thanks

the nhra(or what ever organization does the rules for drag racing) requires a snell 90 or newer i believe. but that helmet looks good to me

here is the helmet i ordered

ordered it 3 weeks ago, and was $20 more then. Its coming in tommorrow, since I think they forgot my order, that or they honestly just got the shipment with my helmet.

good luck racing. You will get addicted. I finally went to the track to race for the first time this year and this friday will be my third time to the track :burnout:

Edit: im getting the $20 refund, so that doesnt bother me now.
