I need a new helmet this year to replace my SA2005 2005 Simpson Voyager. I usually only get to the track a few times a year, high 10 sec. car. Like to know what others are using?

Some things in a race car or any car at the track you never want to test, if you do test it you don't want it to fail work shruggy

If you like to see what's going on I recommend a helmet that gives you the best peripheral vision. Some of them can be pretty confining that way.

If you have glasses make sure it one that works with them. I use a Bell helmet full face.

I looked around a lot. I settled for the Bell Sport EV. For me it was not about money but getting one that fit and had good vision.
