If your not going to get it, It's your head, you only got one. I would buy a nice helmet then, you know what they say a $10 helmet for a $10 head. I'm kinda just kidding.

But if you are going to get it, yeah that is the good stuff. It actually absorbs impact durring a crash. It is hard to the touch and if you try to bend it, it will snap. The other foam stuff will split or bounch your head back causing more injury depending on what part you hit and the condition of it.

That said I run the good stuff cause I have to around my head and use the soft stuff for where my legs will hit. I don't know if this is required in all sanctioning bodys of racing, but it is what they use in the roundy ronud cars. It is also fire resistant where the other stuff lights up quick, melts, falls off the bars and bonds to your skin. Ever burn a gas can? Or an old couch?

Give me a call, I've got some of both laying around I could show you. I actually have an extra 3 foot piece in black of the SFI padding in the garage I would get rid of cheap. and some yellow spongee stuff you could just have.

Oh yeah you still zip tie the stuff into place.
