Other than the first 2 weekends in July, I am free any other weekend.

Hondaracer, any motorcycle, karting helmet will do. They don't check the helmets like they do at a trackday. But bicycle helmets and beanies are a no go.

beanies are okay as long as they are DOT i believe. i see ppl at TBC with beanies a lot. pretty sure i saw them at f440 too. not my choice of helmet for sure though lol. i wouldn't recommend an open face either. particularly at f440, rocks in the face suck (i know this from working at f440 and driving the karts with no helmet lol)

I'm in! but I won't be back til end of Aug, so if you guys wanna wait.. lol

Hondaracer 06-16-2012 01:53 PM

dot open faced motocross helmets would be fine as well?

Raid3n 06-16-2012 02:17 PM

Definitely taking this chance. I've always wanted to go to F440 but never did


The outdoor go karts on Sidaway might be super slow (I swear I've ridden lawnmowers that are faster lol) but it's a hell of a lot of fun with a couple buddies when you've really got to negotiate corners properly to overtake. Had a ton of fun last weekend

Thanks for the heads up, gonna pick this one up i think.

Tired of tailgating all the noobs at TBC and their super narrow track that you cant even overtake properly on. Accidentally pit maneuvered somebody on the last hairpin turn too! :ilied:
