whats in a more expensive helmet that will protect your head more than the helmet that guy got or my racequip sa2015 helmet?
im not trying to be snarky, im just curious. the more expensive ones are made out of carbon fiber, so were a little lighter than the "normal ones" but i tried a lot of sa2015 helmets at a simpson booth at a local nhra drag race and they didnt feel any lighter. there was a lot more adjustability in the different cushions, but my racequip fits me very well.
the selling points on most of the helmets on simpsons website is that its snell sa2015 rated and that some models offer options, not for safety, but for various things like communications.
that being said, when sa2020 models come out, im definitely getting a matte black simpson bandit helmet. not for safety, just that it looks badass, and the new certification will give me a reason to justify it to the wife
to the op, i have sa2010 open face racequip helmet that fits me well.
