Need a helmet for Solo 1 and Regional racing for this summer. I blew the budget on the car so I cannot afford a brand new one.

Color does not matter
Size L or XL
Location: GTAA or west (Preferably)

Any out there???

I've got a snell M2000, closed-face I'd be willing to sell if the price was right

You'll need an "SA" rated helmet for regional racing (and a bigger budget if you're racing a Mini :D )

Your Mini is caged, yeah? You'll have to get an "SA" rated helmet. The "M" wont be enough.

No I am not planning on regional racing a mini ... like shooting myself in the back. Imagine the closing speed (I'd be in with all GT cars) on the back straight as Mosport! I have been crewing for my father for a while and he is contemplating letting me drive his Formula 4 car in a couple of events. I would like a helmet that I could do either with.

Cheers

AS for caged .. YES, welded in to the solid rear subframe. Only thing out is the door bar and cross member. Would only need a new fuel cell, belts, seat and tow hook to go back to it's racing glory.

Use you dad's helmet for regional racing! Give him a cigar and tell him he's the team owner. Your tires are ready for pick-up.

Good point. Does not change the fact I need a helmet though. Does anyone have one for sale?

Tires - which set, the Hoosier slicks (the 10's or the 8's) or maybee my A008's for the Mini... or the tubes for my training wheels!

Actually I do have 2 brand new Yokohama's ,I think they are GX 501 or somthing like that . I'll make sure they are ready for inspection when your dad picks up his Hoosier's. I also have cosmic rims and various other parts if needed.

I'll get him to take a look when he gets the slicks. Am I correct to assume then that you have 4 on 4 rims 13x7? if so how much for 4, I need a second set of rims ... vega's would do but something lighter would be nice.

Cheers

PS are you the guy with the green Civic?

Sorry ,tires and rims are 10'' not 13''. Mini's are not slow they are not fast ,however they are quick. Just ask Bill Brack. Yes jelly bean green is mine.
