Yesterday was the cutoff. Plus this was only for the Motorsports helmets, not the bike helmets.

Re: HJC Helmets and Corbeau seats group buy
There is a difference in helmets?
I assume the ones from the group buy are good for drag/auto-x etc since you said motorsports.
Just making sure I am getting what i need for when i go to the track.

The motorsports helmets are SA-rated which is required for competitive road racing, karting, etc. where M-rated helmets (motorcycle) do not cut it.

I believe the primary difference is that SA rated helmets are fire proof, and designed to withstand impact on a roll cage bar.

Re: HJC Helmets and Corbeau seats group buy
when I last talked to todd, the backordered helmets were still on schedule (5-6 weeks from when we ordered) So I think we are still 1-2 weeks out. You can call Todd to find out for sure.

Re: HJC Helmets and Corbeau seats group buy
Well if anyone is interested in a large helmet from this order, i still haven't received it yet (black one) but i would be willing to sell mine.
My motor blew up over the weekend, needs funds for fixing it or a new car.
Let me know via PM. I will make a true FS thread when i get it if no one messages me.

Re: HJC Helmets and Corbeau seats group buy
For what it's worth, I picked up my seat last week and Todd said the helmets should still be here within a week or two.

Re: HJC Helmets and Corbeau seats group buy
Hey Murlo, I dunno if you've heard from Todd, but you should be able to get a refund now, because shipping has been suuuper slow and we wont have our helmets in time for chumpcar. I might end up getting an Si-12 or a white one, haven't decided yet.

Yea, Todd emailed me yesterday and he is going to get me a refund. That will help out for sure for paying for my new motor. |

Re: HJC Helmets and Corbeau seats group buy
Yeah, Todd emailed me too. I'm bummed, don't really want to spend more money just to get an Si-12.  But that is the mac daddy of helmets.

Yeah, it's just tough to swallow on top of $500+ for a full racing suit. But the more I think about it the more I see it as an investment in my safety. This isn't a demo derby where you can get by with a snowmobile helmet, flannel shirt and jeans.
