Helmet options

Richnzj · December 18, 2021, 09:21:53 PM

Hi all I'm looking for some ideas on helmets at over 6 foot tall my normal helmet I use (not when in the fb rx7) I can't use as I don't fit ! Is there any open face helmet with a low head height I could look at for more head room for a track day

With helmet on in the car at the moment I'm about 1 or 2 inches to high I can't put the seat back anymore or I will be horizontal

That's wicked
Nice graphics on that helmet lol

I'm
6,2 ish and Managed in the 8 with a helmet
The only fab thing about open face ones is the ability to remove and fit in position whilst seated

Isn't this why FBs came with sunroofs?
