Post Racing Helmets

Hi guys,

I'm trying to find a helmet to use for autocrossing / PCA track events. I've always borrowed helmets from friends. I never wanted to use the skanky loaner helmets at the events. Since i just got Bush's tax rebate in the mail, i figured that it would cover most of the cost of a helmet.

I'd like a closed face helmet, but one that is the least intrusive on my perherial vision. (i have no idea how to spell perherial, but you know what i mean) Most recently, i borrowed a friend's HJC helmet. I liked that helmet, but it was a motorcycle spec helmet. HJC doesn't seem to make an automotive helmet. Any other reccomendations on helmets with good visibility?

What spec should i get? I've heard the PCA is phasing out 95 spec helmets for the SA2000 helmets. is this true? if so, i need a SA2000 spec helmet.

I'm trying to keep it under $350 Where is a good (cheap) place to buy helmets?

Mike
