Sweet. I bet you are beyond excited to get it back.

Thought about this one $379.
Or I could be a super hero...$399
The opening is crucial as I do wear glasses. Just need to get some time and get out to see what fits.
I appreciate all the input. Quite a lot of good information and suggestions. Thx to everyone.

I have an Impact helmet that I use for karting, and I love it!
My son has one as well. I think he would get a kick out of it if my helmet matched his. Did you pick it up at their offices on the west side? Any issues with the helmet/visor etc.? I am sure you have used your helmet longer than my 6yr old, and can tell me a little more about it other than 'Dad its on backwards....."

I was thinking about an open face helmet like this one.

My question is will this type helmet be ok for track days? Or do they require a full face hemlet? Anyone know?

You read my mind. That was going to be my next question. Open face or full enclosure.

Simpson sold Simpson, started a new company, Impact. Not sure which company was recently in the news about the quality of their helmets vs actual testing. Something about putting approved stickers on helmets that weren't approved. I don't remember the details, so research it first to see what I recall is correct or not.
I had a chance to try a carbon fiber helmet at Putnam. More expensive than my head and light as a feather.
While not meant for a car, I have a kevlar kayak helmet. Literally saved my life. Lesson I learned, don't skimp on helmets.

I didn't realize that Impact was owned by Simpson, or that he was based out of Brownsburg. My son uses an Impact helmet for his karting. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the heads up.

I will eventually need a helmet if I am to attend track days etc. What are everyone's opinions on the aforementioned subject? Thx for your input.
