Default SA2005 Helmet

I was searching for a helmet for 944fest as well as to do track events later and ran across this helmet which is a FSA-1 at www.helmetcity.com
I have never heard of that brand or anything, anyone with some experience? I just noticed that with it being a SA2005 approved helmet, closed face for $199.99 seems very cheap! I am actually lean towards a G-Force Pro that is SA2005, cheapest I found now is $249.99 at OGRacing.com

I've never heard of Zamp, but that doesn't necessarily make it a bad product.

I guess the fundamental question, then, is do you trust an unknown manufacturer of an important safety item to save $50??

If it's passed the SA2005 tests, then yes the helmet is safe. The extra cash that you spend on a helmet goes into features and brand name.

Not to hijack the thread, but Justin that's a good shot of your car on the track. Looks like you might need some stiffer springs.
