 | SIMDOG wrote on Sun, 12 June 2005 21:56 |   eBay... hmmm... i'm not buying a second hand helmet nor am I buying one that i haven't tried on to make sure it fits. Good idea for most things but not safety stuff i reckon. 
 
 
I'm not doing any really dangerous racing, I'm looking for suggestions on what's out there that range from crap to excellent... Also, I figure that if I don't have any accidents then the equipment is going to last a long time. Thus, anything I buy will be almost a one off purchase and a large one of cost can be justified as an investment in my personal safety.

so, your saying, people who do race, purchase saftey gear with the intent to crash?
  |  
  
 
Dood WTF?... I mean that so long as you don't have an accident and damage the helmet it will last for a long time.  I really don't see what was unclear about that.

Good point... I will look into that... That will determine whether I can do hillclimbs but I'll still need the stuff for Go Karting which you don't need a CAM's licence for. 
 
I don't think it'll be a problem but you're right... I should make sure.
