overkill?

Postby **tr1ad** » January 26th, 2009, 10:21 am

would be overkill if safety wasnt an issue

so honda hoe, when you go on the strip, is a helmet overkill?

honda hoe · Postby **honda hoe** » January 26th, 2009, 10:25 am

safety is not d issue

imo (i know i will get flame for this) i dont tink in dex u reach speeds dat warrant a helmet anyway

its highly unlikely somebody gonna flip or crash on a dex course

nevertheless my 'overkill' statement was in reference to the balaclava thingy

crashing is always possible, and flipping............. well :poke:

.
but when would the helmet be best put to use................before the incident or after the incident for someone else?

years ago I almost went backwards into the guard hut with the MG
Someone ran off into the fence at Pier 2
And yes, cars can flip when transitioning from a fast straight to a tight bend....factors such as suspension, tyre pressure etc can make a car pivot on one wheel.........especially if tyres are soft and the rim bites into the tarmac. Seen it happen to a 5 series wagon once.

Remember, things change once u on the course. For example, you may launch with 38psi but something can happen to make u lose pressure while out there. Same thing for brake lines, esp on undermaintained street cars. Or imagine planning to lock hard into a tight bend and you lose power steering!!!!

Ling and short is, flip / crash is highly unlikely at dex, but the risk remains. I agree with CARS decision to 'take in front' on this one.....

honda hoe,
i now understand what i've been seeing. is the smell yuh like. :poke:

since helmets are not easily washable, and the removable balaclavas are, you wear that to absorb sweat, before you put on the helmet.

:(
slippers should be a no no. so too the barfoot thing, but i hope a properly secured sandal is accepted. i rip the soles of sneakers with my heel, due to the size of the planks i have masquerading as feet, and the position of my pedals.
