(Before anyone says it, I searched, didn't find suitable answers to my questions, also everyone that roadraces/autocrosses knows that we are required helmets so I am pretty sure I have the right section)
Anyway......
Everyone's favorite subject, safety gear, buying that really expensive gear that could save your life one day.
What set-up (helmet, gloves, boots, suit, nomex, etc.) are you guys running?
I am starting to get some of my stuff together for the upcoming season and am looking for some feedback.
I found a deal on a site that is selling an HJC Motorsports AR10-II for $299.99 and as an incentive are giving a free set of Puma Pro-Fit gloves with the helmet. I checked into both, the helmet is $299.99 alone, the gloves are $119.99 by themselves. The helmet I was originally looking at was the Bell Sport but now I see this deal and it sounds great but as they say "if it sounds too good to be true..." I looked around and couldn't find a lot of people using an HJC Motorsports helmet but the general consensus is that the HJC is a quality piece, I read the review on racinghelmetguide.com and it was very favorable.
So the sum of my questions is, should I pull the trigger to get a new helmet and a free pair of gloves? I need a new helmet as my SA2000 helmet is no longer good and I can't borrow my friends anymore.
