Does MIR rent helmets to test and tune drivers, or am I required to bring my own ? What is required from racers to pass tech?
If anyone knows, please give me the info. Thank you.
They rent helmets but the times that I went they only had two or three max. For tech inspection they never even asked me anything - just fill out the form and done.
Thanks mr Bones. I don’t live in MD, but am tryng to track my car there soon, in hopes of ridding my self of my 14 sec memories. I hope to at least make a 13 sec pass. Thank you.
How much is a cheap helmet ? At englishtown the helmets are $5 to rent. It’s not like I will be tacking m daily driver every other wekend. If I CA get a helmet for under $100 it might be worth it. If not, I’d rather rent a good quality helmet for better protection.
I got an extra helmet that’s been sitting on a shelf for a while. Free if you pay shipping. However, I must note…it fits big on most people. My cap size use to be 7 3/8 with a full head of hair, but it’s most likely just over 7 now that I wear my hair short. It’s DOT regulation and was on par with NHRA about 8 years ago not sure if the rules have changed. Let me know
Your welcome and I don’t live there either but they have all the good 1/4 mile drag strips. Capital Raceway in Crofton runs Friday nights instead of during the hot ass middle of the day like MIR so I recommend going there for faster times. Plus it is about forty feet lower in elevation too. The downside is that I am not sure if they rent helmets since I never went fast enough there to need one while stockish.
I appreciate your generosity and will gladly except your offer. If it doesn’t fit, Ill just let someone with a bigger/smaller helmet size use it. I would usually say “no thank you” while responding to a post like this, but I am rarely given something for free, especially from strangers, thanks.
If you are still in the giving mood, please give me your best assumption of how much shipping will cost to (NY) and I will western union that amount to you. I would put D Lo as the name as the receiver and Ill pm you a password to assist in retrieving the money with out an ID, so that you wouldn’t have to give me any of your personal info. Thanks again.
