Not to jack your thread, but I am looking for a helmet as well. But I will try to help you out.

I would suggest getting a SA2005 helmet. You will be able to use almost anywhere for atleat the next 5 years, SA2010 comes out later this year. Look at different helmet manufactures, find the SA05 then see what you like, if you can test fit them even better.


I have these 2 in mind HJC AR-10 and Bell BR-1. I will be using this for dual purpose in the car, and open wheel (karting). I know the AR-10 is 3.5lbs suppose to be one of the lighter helmets on the market. Not sure on the BR-1.

Any users of these two?

What's a decent priced SA helmet?

I'm pretty sure they want a SA rating for XDC.
