Helmets preferences?

There was one point where I thought Jeff would not see his 15th birthday. I was gonna kill him.

My Mom said the same thing at 17 and my Dad when I graduated from College.

LOL Doug, I think I witnessed some of your frustration back then.
Helmet preferences? Well lets see, we have talked about Brands and how pretty they need to be. But no discussion about mandatory safety regulation preferences for karting. Be careful and don’t buy one that will be out dated sooner than the shine wears off.

Heck as long as we are picking on Tony let me get a Jab at his Tag line.

“Im not like a lot of racers, I cant go out and buy my speed.
I work at it.
I actually work at this, not just sit back and throw alot of money in to it.
I work Till I collapse”- Tony LaPorta

Sorry but to me that is a little insulting to me any way. Just who are the “a lot of racers” in karting that are fast and don’t work at it? The only bad thing about the few rich guys that can throw money at it, is that they must be smarter than I am or I’d be fast and rich.
Don’t pick on the rich guys, we need them to pay our taxes, provide great used equipment, a place to play and some one to work for so we can buy more speed.
I can only hope some day I will grow up and be just like them.

Go Racing had a great article on safety gear a few months back. Not sure if back issues are available or not, but the magazine is now available on line.

It’s really kind of cool to be able to read the magazine on line. Click the on the upper right part of the screen. It can be enlarged for us old guys to read.

Know what?

Maybe it was Nkn. I’ll have to look when I get home. The Go Racing thing is cool though.

Tony’s helmet is cool. I want one with a big wing and head tie downs.

BooBy, I’m not like a lot of other racers. That buy their high speed internet.
I have to down load it at 28.8 Kbps
I work at it, not just sit back and gaze at it.

It’s fricken snowing again…… At least it’s a warm snow.

Better get out there and start knocking down some racing $!!!

[Rick Schmidt]

I like Tony’s helmet too. Wonder if those horns whistle though?

[Scott Mowrey]

Well, I think this thread is dead, but if anyone cares, I got the Bell Kart-2 Pro Helmet. I really like it, and it has a lot of vents.

Thanks for all of the input, and sorry if I caused an argument…..

[Tony LaPorta]

Scott dont worry, you didnt cause a thing.
