Default For Track/AutoX Junkies: Best Snell 2010 Helmet For the Money

After 9 autocross events and 10 track days with my Zeronine Z9-APX helmet this season, all I can say is that's it's a huge improvement over my old Bell M3. It is very light (3.2 lbs for size Large) and hard to beat for the money (low $300s). I highly recommend it. I did a detailed review on it here:

Did you crash test it?

Just kidding - always nice to get reviews on equipment.

Haha, I really hope I never have to find out how safe it really is in a real situation yikes! My thinking on helmets is that they are reasonably safe as long as they meet the Snell requirements. Some will exceed them but there is no reliable way to get that data. The rest of the criteria are all about fit, comfort, breathing, graphics, etc.
