M2000 helmets expiring end of this year

[Jack Tsou]

Is that correct?

[Michael Palero]

From what I read from the 2010 Helmet Certification Bulletin,
M95 will not be eligible for use in SCCA Solo after 12/31/2010.

But then again, I'm not on any boards and don't the inside scoop.

Speaking of helmets - are there any deals out there for 2010-dated helmets?

I saw many SA2005 deals http://thebellstore.com/Auto/closeout.html

For SA2010, I found this $137 guy http://thmotorsports.com/racequip/raceq ... 252112-03-

Does anyone know where one can try on those inexpensive Pyrotech helmets?

Yeah, first link in this post viewtopic.php?f=22&t=160
I tried my Pyrotect Helmets on at their store.
They were receptive to price negotiation since I brought cash.

I really like my Pyrotech full face. Mako thought you guys were going track racing, your not going out on a track with an open face or M rated helmet are you?

[Mako Koiwai]

Right ... looking for a full face helmet ... and yeah ... accidentally posted the M full face models

Need something that's airy ... I get claustrophobic very easily

[Arthur Grant]

Wish I had known, would have let you try my full face.

[Robert Puertas]

Mako, I used to have that problem too, especially back before the Lasik surgery...
At the time, the Simpson Voyager was always the best solution for me.

Not as cheap as the Pyrotects, but worth it to be comfortable. Plus the Pyrotects always fit me a little funny...

Michael Eguina sells SA2005 helmets- I bought one from him and am ready to retire my M95 I've had for 10 years...He'll give you a good deal.

[Steve Coe]

C2 Racers has close out prices on their 2005 helmets. For as little as $115 for an SA approved Snell

(858) 495-9200

Snell 2000 helmets should be fine for another 5 years.

Mako, you can also try on pyrotect helmets @ extreme supply in Signal Hill. Really nice people (went there to pick up those $20 bell helmets a couple years back). I'm thinking of visiting them soon - they have an orange-y carbon fiber helmet on closeout!
