Default Got my new helmet today!

I got my helmet in today, Arai Colin Edwards Replica RX7 Corsair, after exactly 1 month of when i ordered it. I got it from a company out in texas called rsxmotorsports. The reason it took so long to ship was because nobody had the helmet, the arai distributors didn't even have it yet, so it took a while for the company to get it then ship it to me.... but even after a month i was stoked it was finally here. I still have my Arai Hayden Laguna RX7 Corsair but im not able to use it at the track anymore due to an unfortunate crash in the B Superstock Race at Nelson's Ledges Ohio. Heres a pic of the helmet.....

As I was waiting for it to get here, I called the company and talked to the guy who dealt with the distributors and priced the helmets. I got the helmet for $540 shipped.... whereas if you get it from motosports.com or practically anywhere else there gonna be $660. I asked him how he was able to sell the helmet for so much cheaper than other places and he said that he has been using Arai helmets for 8 years and wanted other people to be able to afford a good helmet w/out too extreme of price, so i thought that was pretty straight of him. So this is officially my race helmet, not gonna be on the street with it cause i dont want some idiot to wreck me and then be w/out another helmet for racing, cause i missed my Summit Point Race in WV because it took that helmet so long to get here. Anyways, im stoked!

Not gonna use it on the street? I can only afford 1 helmet and my budget isn't even half of what you spent for your "track helmet." Spoiled bastard! [:@]
