Default POLL: What helmet (brand, model) do you use for the track?

I currently use a cheap motorcycle helmet but was thinking of upgrading to a nice Bell open face. Curious what you guys use.

Default Depending on the club, you might need a car helmet (SA) instead of a motorcycle (M). I have a.....

full faced Bell car helmet.

There were rumors that they might go away from open face, but those rumors seemed to have died. So I imagine it is soley preference. The full face made it easy for me to wire the intercom.

Default Bell M3 and Bell Mag V.

Decide whether you want open or full face and then try a few on to see which you like.

On a motorcycle, weight isn't that important. In a car on a track with its big sideloads weight does make a difference.
