I would not go with a full face helmet. Too hot. I have an open face Bell that I bought for the road coarse. I think it's this one: http://www.bellhelmets.com/index.cfm...category_id=39

OK. Don't say we didn't warn you....

I will have mine with me but probably won't wear it unless they ask.

the last time I was there I ran my 12.6, but they were behind giving out slips so I took my helmet off since it was ******* HOT... LOL.. I know...
So when I get up to her to get my slip, she looks at me and is like, where is your helmet..
I was like, calm down lady, its right here.. I was freakin hot..
They have checked me over..

no I just like the bad *** looking helmets..
IMO.. the open face helmet seems to be going for the old school look.

I am more new school.. LOL

not really just sounds good.

But I like the closed faced ones...

If you like it, get it. I've never seen Ennis check a helmet for their DOT/Snell ratings.

go with a suomy. they make some of the best helmets around. Icon is garbage so is HJC in my opinion. Shoei or Suomy is the only helmet I would wear.
