Auto racing gear in the GTA
Hey guys!
I am looking for auto racing gear stores around the GTA, but untill now I got nothing. I am mostly looking for helmets but my search over the internet came up with nothing under CAD$300 and after that I still had to pay shipping. I did find some helmets on Ebay but most of them are for motorcycles, and in a good price from CAD$49.99 to CAD$54.99 plus free shipping. Does anyone here race their Camaro with motorcycle helmet on? The ones I saw are DOT approved, but do I have to have a SNELL rated to race here in ON? This is on the advertise: "These EVOS Helmets meet or exceed FMVSS-218 and DOT Safety Standards. Always check with Track, Circuit, Rally, or Event Administration for Helmet Safety Requirements. Some venues may require a SNELL rated helmet." Where do you guys buy racing gear? Do you guys think is a good idea to race with a motorcycle helmet? Thanks in advance for the help guys! Hope the best for all. Cheers, Pedro Salomao. |

If you're buying one now, look for one with the newer Snell 2010 rating.
