Default where to buy auto racing helmet

like the title says, where can i buy a helmet locally other than speedware motorsports. the reason i don't wanna buy from them is cause the cheapest one i saw is 3 bills, i was hoping not to spend more than 2 bill (hopefully even less)

i don't really want to buy one online cause i wanna try it on first to make sure it fits and all

thanks

ps

if anyone is selling a used one, i will entertain the idea as long as its in decent condition (doesn't stink, not crazy scatches, etc)

you're gonna have a real hard time finding an approved helmet for 2 bills......if you're on a budget look for a used one....look up Cascade car Club or Team Continental...someone may have a good used one in your price range...

i don't really see the reason to spend lots of money on a helmet for an amature (really amature i might add) racer that will see the track less than once a month

this is the helmet i'm considering:

go to a motorcycle shop or speedware and try them on first then order the size that fit you.
