personally id like to get a ride in someone's car that has the coilovers before i buy em so i can see what im gettin into. i completely understand that the ride will be harsh compared to stock, which i am completely ready for, just a matter of how harsh and the amount of noise people are complaining about. i already have little squeaks and rattles as it is so it may not be a big deal.

It all depends on how much you lower them. If you want performance, you'll like the stance. Bradley's car is really low so it will be a rougher ride than just a moderate drop. But it looks too damn good being low so.....

Tight chit, I'm going to have to look into that. I been wanting to get my own helmet because that would compel me to go to events more often and get use out of it.

Greg, depending on the price I'd be willing to get in on the GB. I know Bishoy was interested too when Khan and I were talking about it Sunday.

It has to be DOT approved I believe, which some motorcycle helmets are only Shnell, which I don't think you're suppose to use at an auto-x. I could have this backwards it's just what someone told me a while back.

most motorcycle helmets are DOT and snell approved, actually they might have to be. I for one wouldnt go cheap when protecting your nugget, more so when on a bike! What's your head and face worth to you?

Autocrossing allows DOT and Snell approved helmets. Track days/road courses typically require a Snell SA helmet so motorcycle helmets are not allowed.
