Ye olde Helmet Shoppe?

Post by Kevin Price »

Can anyone recommend a place in OC that has a good selection of legal helmets? Thanks in advance.

Also in the market since my SA2005 helmet will soon be out of date for many clubs. My research has turned up "The Helmet Man" in Costa Mesa.

Kevin, if you are looking for autocross use only, any Snell rated motorcycle helmet is acceptable. Most motorcycle shops/dealers have good selections and many are very reasonably priced.

I got my latest helmet from the Kevin & Jessica Pao of Racing Lifestyles. They are at all our local autoxes.

I will be buying my replacement helmet from Kevin and Jessica Pao at Racing Lifestyles. He races with us and supports our sport on a local basis. That and he is a nice guy. :)

Thanks to Kevin Pao for contacting me right away. As it turns out, Helmetman in Costa Mesa is right around the corner from me, and I picked up a helmet yesterday afternoon. Jeff there was very interested in being mentioned here in the forum, so if anyone else stops by, be sure to let him know about us.
