Lightbulb Official Racing Helmet Thread: Post em up!*

I noticed that we have threads for interiors, engine bays, wheels, etc. but have yet to see a thread where we could share different helmet setups. I know some guys rock some dope lenses, sticker & paint themes. Post em up!

Here's my Sparco helmet:

^^^ Cool Helmets guys

I got this done about 3 years ago I am not really into it anymore so I am getting a new helmet soon but the art work is fairly good.

I don't have a custom helmet, but I do have a wife that races. She's fast too!

His and hers helmets...

my friend's daughter wearing my current helmet... can't find pictures of my old one though (covered in stickers!)

my best friend/racing buddy has the same one in white with a black visor, people always take a second look at you at the track

thinking about getting it "stickered" up with my name and some "motivational" lines...

Ooh, nice thread, Rick.

Is it possible for you guys to also post up your helmet's brand and model?

I've been in the market for a helmet for... 4 years but I just haven't gotten around to actually buying one since most of the tracks/events I go to have free rental helmets (I have a head sock). I'm just trying to see what most people generally choose when purchasing helmets.

I have been talking about getting a Simpson Bandit for about 2 years now, but the car hasn't been running to potential so it has been on the back burner until the car gets back to the track. I told the wife thinking I might get one for Christmas but it didn't happen

I jus bought an HJC open face towards the end of the racing season here in the north east.... But now I'm thinking about a Simpson.. At first I thought it was overkill but u can never have too much protection on ur noggin....

Besides it looks fuggin evil as hell........
