View Full Version : Helmets
Who goes with what? Closed visor or open?
I'm thinking open for visibility but a Stig lookalike would be a laugh!
Any personal fave's?

Lol - I feel like I'm returning to Castle Wolfenstein!
Open face gives much better visibility, but you like a bit of a chump wearing one.
I've gone for the Stig look. Nice n simple :)
I have a closed face one....ideal for motorbikes.
I have always worn a full face in rallying/competition :wink: :wink:
My reasons,~~ one I am "butt ugly " :oops: :shock: :oops: ,~~ so I therefore do not frighten the marshalls or officials. :wink: :wink:
Seriously though ~~ Although I am co~driver (predominately) ~~ I once met a guy whose seat mounts had let go in an accident~~ a freak incident :cry: :cry: ~~ result ~~ a very serious lower jaw injury,when his jaw made contact with the dash !!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: ~~ he was wearing an open face ~~Like I say a freak accident ~~ but you never know. :shock: :shock:
