Default My new helmet

My buddy just snapped a quick pick of my new wooden helmet for this upcoming season...I just hope it passes tech


We're also going to have the nitrous bottles in the car be painted as wood like the helmet and the roll cage is going to be painted to look like PVC pipe.

It might as well have been carved out of wood, there's not a lot under that helmet to protect!!!

I think we are all pretty pumped over here, how often to you get to see a car go low 9's lookin like it was put together by the beverly hill billy's....just hope no one looks under the hood.

Well wait until I post pictures of your helmet...We had Brian paint a nice set of hairy nuts hanging right above your eyes. I just hope you don't wreck while you're trying to lick them.

Rick can find out what cutting a sub 2.2 sec. 60ft feels like...maybe thats where he got the name for his thread "pulled like a freight train", cause a locomotor would throw down the same 60 ft times he does....I get it now!!!!
