Default So I finally painted my helmet...
This is something I have wanted to do for years, but never got around to it. Finally, I just got tired of seeing my Sparco helmet in white. Our painter does mostly OEM collision work, but I think he did a fine job. He incorporated the Forged Performance colors, and added a touch of flash to it. Nothing too crazy or fancy, but I think the design suits me.

Whacha think? No..I am not a superhero.

Fancy helmet means you better be turning some quick lap times... :-) As I've heard the grid workers talking as they release the last qualifying cars, "What a waste of a nice helmet."

Highlights coming out of the exhaust vents are pretty cool.

I think a cool helmet would shave 1/10 second from my ET.
