So, I ordered a new helmet... but in this case it's for work not for racing...

I'm tired of having my hard hat disappear or having styles that I don't like... There wont be anyone else with this model and color on a rig at the same time...

I've seen a few of these before but they were strictly fiberglass... This one is carbon fiber and kevlar...

I ordered a couple of extra head sets and sweat bands for it... Should be set for a few years...Yes that is Red/Maroon kevlar...

Wonder if there is any way to disable them for the road course?

Interesting question, as I saw a video the other day of a guy drifting and the side curtain airbags inadvertently went off...

:EDIT: I just saw where the video is above... dohhh...

Side Curtain Air bag going off had to be a fluke or something to do with the yaw sensor

Kind of like that Rhino/BTR Kit Brian?

That's far superior to the plastic hats we use... should come in handy when you're editing a particularly troublesome thread on C5 too!



Ever seen one of these? They actually look pretty decent from 20 feet away. Not nearly the quality of yours but they have the factor

We had a guy show up on a rig with one of those, and pointed toe steel toe cowboy boots... We made him use one of our hard hats and took the boots away while he was on the rig since he couldn't prove they were ANSI approved...
