My old Simpson helmet was always very comfortable. My new Pyrotech helmet is not comfortable.

I've got the G-Force Pro Phenonm and it was about $180. It fits real well and breathes pretty good.

Straight from the NHRA rule book.

I think the only difference is that SA helmets have a flame retardant lining.

For all 10.00 to 13.99 closed-bodied cars, either an open-face or a full-face Snell M2000, M2005, M2010, K2005, SA2000, SA2005,
SA2010, SFI 31.1A, 31.1/2005, 31.2A, 41.1A, 41.1/2005, or 41.2A helmet with or without a shield is mandatory required.
For all 9.99 and quicker closed-bodied cars, a full-face Snell M2000, M2005, M2010, K2005, SA2000, SA2005,
SA2010, SFI 31.2A or 41.2A helmet mandatory; shield permitted (goggles prohibited).
