fridays = better prep less ricers with street tires going through the burnout box and leaving water on the track.

^^^ Online, you could snag a new HJC for like 70 bones + shipping at some stores. E-bay is good to some extent.

Walmart supposedly has one someone on here bought and showed it and it was a Bell and probably Snell cer also, but I cant verify that.
