One of the most important factors in all of automatic racing is the racing helmet. Racing helmets can possibly save a person's life whenever there is an unexpected wreck. (Whoever heard of such a thing in Nascar?) What are some of the top racing helmets manufacturers? For starters, there are Bell racing helmets, Simpson Helmets, Impact Racing Helmets, Pyrotech, Sparco, MQ, Arai Helmets, G-Force Racing Gear, RCI and Zamp Helmets.
The Bell Racing Helmet What are the most important features in auto racing helmets? Consider the quintessential model in racing helmets: the Bell line. Bell racing helmets come in several different series, each designed for specific racing needs. The Ultra series features the most innovative designs in helmet performance. Its professional level features include lightweight design, next generation dynamics and full ventilation systems. Models include the Excelerator, the Dominator, the Vortex, the T6 Interceptor and Infusion Top Forced. Series lines also include the Pro Series, the contemporary design one level short of the gold standard, and the Racer series, which is more economically priced. What is the price differential between series? For Excelerator level helmets you can expect to pay $1,000.00 while most Racer series models are priced at just above $300.00 Other Racing Helmets There are also auto racing helmets that are sold by the Nascar racing helmet store. These collector's items helmets include mini helmets, such as the T. Stewart model, and multi-sport helmets like the Dale Earnhardt helmet and the J. Johnson sport helmet. These race helmets feature special painting in the spirit of their famous racer. There are also other forms of racing helmets for off-road sports, such as BMX SE racing helmets and Kart racing helmets. Two of the premiere companies in bicycle racing helmets is Oneal and SE. Oneal Racing Helmets offers products for men's racing, women's racing, as well as other accessories for helmets. SE Racing Helmets offer consumers much in the way of biking helmets, bikes and related accessories. SE Racing actually began in 1970, when its teenage entrepreneurial creator Scot Breithaupt started promoting what were known as Pedal-Cross races in Long Beach, CA. This was the start of BMX racing and just six years later, he launched the SE (Scot Enterprise) company. Other Designations A Snell racing helmet is a distinction of quality, since a Snell certification speaks as to the helmet's high quality in protection, functionality and comfort.
