ParticipantYou need to compare the stock 9″ offset with the new10″ rim offset to see how far the same size tire will stick out.

ParticipantMantis Racing has front mount brackets for $80.
You need to be able to reach the fire extinguisher while belted in.Wayne Spiegelberg
ParticipantWith respect to John and Brian
s comments, I value my noggin to have the right helmet for me rather than just any 2015 since I
ll be wearing it for the next 10 years.
I have worn a Bell helmet since 1993 and ordered a new one in Jan but it won`t be here till June.
For the record I have been told on good authority that for the May DE anyone showing up with an out of date helmet will be given a warning, good only until their next event.
I suggest that anyone who needs a new helmet get the right one you need and proper fit. I also dont recommend just an M helmet for the long haul. I
ve heard that some tracks in the US do not allow them and if you advance in the program and go racing, you will need an SA. Please let`s not have that debate again M vs SA. You only have one head to protect.Happy Motoring…Wayne

ParticipantTry replacing your DME Relay.

ParticipantLOL….I knew I could count on John to open the debate that I truly wanted to avoid.
For my 2 cents, I`ve always used a Bell SA model with larger eyeport.John
s points are valid. Unfortunately most people don
t spend enough money on head and neck protection and dont bat an eye on paying for more horsepower they don
t really need before they truly know how to drive.The choice is yours, one bump or two ?

ParticipantI believe Arai and Shoei offer great helmets however they are primarily designed for motorcyclists.
Ive not checked out their product assortment lately but don
t recall they offer SA designation.
A good investment and a better long term choice would be to get an SA approved helmet with fire protection from a company that specializes in auto racing gear. Obviously fire is not so much an issue when crashing a motorcycle or snowmobile but trapped in a burning car is a different matter.My 2 cents..Wayne

ParticipantYou may want to visit MOTORAMA next wknd Mar 13-15 at the International Center north of the airport in Mississauga. Many of the local suppliers CSC Racing (Bell), JRP (Sparco) and Fast Eddie (Simpson) will be there and should have a good selection to try on.
John Adam`s comments are bang on so shop wisely.

ParticipantHi David,

ParticipantIn a pinch, you can use white masking tape on your rear side windows and make them as large as possible.
