what's the difference, I see that metco one looks different than bmr one. trying to get my car ready to run at the track next month, any good helmet recommendations.

metco is what is needed for aftermarket shafts (Gforce/DSS). BMR is good for stock driveshaft.

look for a good SNELL 2010 or newer rating.

Bingo! You can use the Metco with stock or aftermarket, you just need their extension when using an aftermarket shaft.

I was asking because a friend of mine put the bmr safety loop on his car, but needed modification to it, is that because the zl1 driveshaft is diff. than stock ss driveshaft.
