It's not a matter of passing tech. It's a matter of piece of mind and safety. I just finished up a car for my son. First time ever drag racing. Car is going low 7's in the 1/8 right now. Soon to be going low 6's, maybe high 5's. When your kids want to start racing because Daddy does it, let me know if you put that 20 year old helmet on their heads.

Calm down Kenny. My question was out of curiosity to see if yall got hassled at a track (I know yall went to Pageland recently) around here for an older helmet, b/c I never have.
