Helmet info

[Cole]

There is some good information about what type of Helmet to use and neck restraints in this article.
Yes I stole it from Pirate because a lot of people don't go to the desert section.

good info, and great find Cole.

I was worried about dust, but never thought about flying rocks. Those could HURT.

I have thought about a HANS, but the prohibitive part for me was the $1000's or so for one. Its really not the cost but the cost vs. use. Main reason for thinking about it was my neck was sore for 3 days after Hannibal, and that seemed like a walk in the park........

There is good thought provoking stuff in that post.

$100 each. one for each of us, I'd drop on that
that means full faces for us to use that. that would also help on the Comm.
I don't konw that the R3 is neccessary, as I have a very beefy neck, but who knows. if I have an extra $7 bills I might spring for one. if wyatt does, I'll have to.

back to what started this, helmets.
what about what Fred posted, the helmets that are full face but flip the face. Modular I think.
