Default What kind of racing helmet?

Hey guys just wanted to see if anyone had any inputs about which racing helmet would be suitable for me...i need one that falls within the guidelines for racing. I cant remember what type but it has to be full face racing for cars.



Is there one that anyone has that isnt too expensive? im not trying to spend over $500 for a helmet as i only plan on track maybe 3-4 times a year. oh and im looking for one that will work for almost all the tracks that i go to.

I assume you're not racing wheel to wheel so you'll probably be fine with a Snell approved motorcycle helmet. Motorcycle helmets have better visibility than SA helmets. I got a Snell 2010 HJC motorcycle helmet for autocross and HPDE for just over 100 bucks. Make sure it is Snell approved!
