Ask Prof where he got his loop. Go to any motorcycle outfitter for a helmet. Or buy one on line from Bell.

does anyone know of a cheaper (sfi 41.1a approved) helmet ?

I went to the motorcycle shop for my helmet. It run me about $150.

EDIT: Opps I guess I should have looked to see how much the helmet in your link was

I think that is a good price for a helmet.

driveshaft loops are harder to come by than i though, any ideas ?

i'll check with prof too.

They are not a vendor here,But have you tried Moe's Performance?

Yes, Bob Miller has them.

I don't believe that a motorcycle helmet would be an approved helmet for any sanctioned automobile race.

How come I see so many M/C helmets at the drags?:dontknow:

Then someone isn't doing their job! Motorcycle helmets do not meet the fire and heat resistance standards.

That's the loop I have been running on mine...no drilling at all...just bolt it on and:burnout: :burnout: :burnout:

What you need to check on,is the SNELL rating the helmet needs to meet !!!I have a helmet that I have used for some time,with a Snell 95 rating.It no longer meets the specs for NHRA drag racing,but I don't remember off hand what the new rating is !!! And yes,I bought my helmet at a Harley Shop,so I don't know how that cocnlusion came about !!! :dontknow:

If I am not mistaken it is now snell 2000 and yes motorcycle helmets do cover car racing. I race at a track that is pretty picky with safety and I use my SHOEI motorcycle helmet which is DOT and snell 2000 (also a $450 helmet) and I was running 9.70's last year in the 1/4 ( in my car will be much fater this year) and they said that is what is required.

I bought a $50 motorcycle helmet....the track has never physically inspected it. As long as I have a helmet on they give the thumbs up. This is the 3rd year I have had to use it.

They actually inspect your vehicle?...The only thing the tech's inspect at Bristol is the signature line on the registation form to make sure you signed it....takes about 20 seconds to get thru tech..

BTW Luis...and excuse my rudeness to this thread's owner...I see you might want a 6.1 cam...I have a used one I would sell cheap..has about 7K miles on it..
