Default Beginning my first track season.

Hey everyone,
I plan to attend a lot of track days this year. I want to get a helmet but I'm not sure where to begin. I'd like to know if there is any place local, that I can go try helmets on and see what fits me. I've looked at a few places online, Aria helmets seem to be a good deal. If anyone has bought their helmet locally, I'd like to know where. Thanks again everyone.

You should get a car specific helmet, some groups require them.

Try OG Racing in NOVA.

OG Racing has all of your racing needs even down to a race suit if needed...

Aria are nice but pricey $700 or a $1k for their car helmets. Bell makes some nice car helmets that are a little cheaper (start at sround 4250 and go up and up). As has been mentioned, OG Racing has many helmets in stock with all sizes so you can go and try a bunch to find one that fits right.

What about the helmet that was in the FS Forum?

TepEvan, I hadn't looked yet because I have no clue what size I should wear. For one, I have a pin head and two, used helmets just aren't attractive to me.

To everyone else. Thanks for the input, I'll check OG out.

Whatever you get, make sure it's a full face.
