I'm looking for a cheap helmet. Yes yes yes I know $5 head $5 helmet. But this is for autocross and 7/10 track days. I've seen studies referenced on here showing that cheap helmets are as good or better than expensive ones.
Anyway, I recall a few months ago there were close outs on SA2005 helmets for around $50-60, now they all seem to be around $100. Anyone know somewhere with killer (price not literally!!) deals on something like a G-Force open face for the terminally cheap?
If not I’ll have to pony up a whole $100 !!!
Jegs has under $100 Snell helmets.
I can get race quip sa2010 for little over your mark.

That reminds me. . . . I need to order me one from you Kendall.
What's your website Kendall?
Raceday Safety is offering a free helmet bag with the purchase of any RaceQuip helmet. They also advertise in every issue of GRM. (helping to bring you this lovely forum

Wow!! They have SA helmets for the price of M helmets!!
(I'm not astroturfing or canoeing here....Open face at $139 and closed at $169. I'm shocked.)
But with the 10 year rule, you're only going to get 3 years of use out of an SA2005. Drop the cash and get a 2010.

Not all clubs follow that rule, at least around here.
