    having a expensive helmet is unnecessary when your only gonna use it several times a year or less. It's not like I own a bike.

    thats the stupidest thing Ive ever heard dude. SO lets say I wear a cheepy helmet thats not worth a fukk, lets say I ride a bike but i ONLY ride several times a year. That alone tells me your not experienced and more subceptable to a crash just from that fact alone so how can you use that stupid ass excuse to justify buying a cheep helmet? Like I said if your noggin is worth 30 bucks im cool with that dude. You get what you pay for though. I just hope for your sake you dont have to rely on that helmet one day.

    Good luck on the helmet you just purchased. A helmet just being DOT approved does not mean anything on a race track. I'm assuming you are going to a drag strip. If so, make sure your helmet meets at least one of the specs mentioned here. The tech guys especially over at Atlanta Dragway will rummage through the inside of the helmet to look for the proper safety markings. If you've never seen a real helmet before, there are stamps and tags on the inside of the helmet stating what specs the helmet meets. I was just out at Atlanta Dragway earlier and the tech guys got on a guy there who brought a DOT approved helmet.
