[Pics] The Helmet Thread

AckM3 · 08-14-2009, 11:10 AM

Let's see those track helmets!

I'll start, here's my Arai GP-5W. Big thanks to Mark @ StuckPerformance for the Cartman decal (I have a matching one on my car). One day I'd like to have it painted on...

Thats a great looking helmet but I only have the HJC AR10

. One day...

KINGLEH · 08-14-2009, 06:53 PM

I had a good connection with Germany and got hooked up with the same guy that paints Michael Shumakers helmets... PTM... Had to wait a while for this one....

Cam doesn't pick up the little details.. but the guy did a great job... The best part is he spelt my name wrong!.. he spelt it the "German" way...

Its seen better days.. almost 2 years old now...

RENN Spec · 08-14-2009, 07:00 PM

wow, still looks amazing in my books.

totoro · 08-14-2009, 07:01 PM

I just got the rubbertone black HJC AR-10. nice & lightweight.

I also got one of these ChatterBox stereo headsets/mic installed permanently.
The AR-10 has little pockets for those headphones.

Here's mine (sorry for the cell phone pics). Done with a sharpie. I'm not finished with it yet.

Here's a buddy's helmet...

Not a racing helmet but...

He's done twoother helmets. Does a great job and has reasonable prices.

What type of hydration system do you have on there?

KINGLEH · 08-26-2009, 06:06 PM

The clear tube hooks up to a female end mounted in the car.. on top left of the seat... The tube then runs to a electric pump hooked up to a 2 gallon cooler.. full of cold water...

Button on steering wheel turns the pump on.. with enough pressure to just squirt water into your mouth...

Very nice setup.

The tube portion going into the chin guard, is it just a tube or a bite down camel back style valve?
