There is nothing as important as your head. The dollar amount shouldn't even come into the discission when it comes to your safety. I agree with the others on the fact that it must feel right on your head. Some helmet are better than others, offerring better visability than others. Try on several different ones from different manufactures. I reccomended Simpson earlier only because I've had nothing but Simpsons in the past, and I got a slight discount because I also bought my driving suit from them, as well as the shoes, gloves, and when it comes time to replace the belts in the car I will probably go back to them.

And one of these days, I'll get back on the track, hopefully in January.
