Where to Get Racing Gear in L.A. Area?

[canguro]

I need to get a racing helmet for an upcoming event at Sears Point. Anyone know of a good shop in the L.A. area where I can get one quickly? Thanks.

They have every Bell Helmet you can think of. Good look up at Sonoma.

Speedventures is holding its next event at Infinion raceway. I'll be running my stock daily driver G35 coupe there. I'd run the Duetto, but was told the street roll bar won't do. I need to get a race-modified GTV or a Super (in Italian Carabinieri colors).

Not sure if you want to wait until the last minute, but there's a kick *** race shop at Infineon Raceway called Wine Country Motorsports. I just bought a nice helmet there for cheap, and they have a ton of stuff.

Thanks Lightman. I'll probably not want to wait till I get there, but the store sounds interesting. Is it at the track?

Also, what does everyone think about open face helmets? The car is air bag equipped, and at most, I'll only do time trials.
