[NORCAL]Group Buy for HELMETS

Okay kids.

http://www.bellmotorsports.com/pyro10.shtml

That's what we're looking at.

Pyrotect Full-Face helmet, SA2000 rated. This means you can use it at ANY event. White or Black. You want art on it? Grab a marker and draw some shit on it after you buy it.

Price is $225 + tax. I know its not a huge amount off but it's better than paying $300 for it.

"But I can get a bike helmet for $100" -- That's great. Go buy one then.

If you're in, let me know. I need 10 buyers to get this pricing. NORCAL people only. I'm not shipping helmets. We're all going to the shop together, get fitted, pay and leave.

MODS: I am not making money off this. This is for people attending the NCDA/future events that want to save a little on helmets.

Thanks

Hey Art. You can almost count me in for this one b/c I gotta find out how much I can spend and what I cant spend. It might just mean I have to wait longer to get my car again....ohwell.....I need a helmet anyways... 225 isnt bad. Pretty good actually. Now I wont have to barrow shit anymore. Let me know when your gonna go check out the helmets and get them. Ive already tried one on so I know what I want....just color? hehe. Thanks for getting this group buy.

I got a helmet thats similar to that bell one, I bought it two years ago, used it for 2 drift events and for 1 week on my motorcycle. Im selling it for $120 obo , its already got a few stickers on it though, it shouldn't be a problem gettin um off, its white almost like the one in the picture. I prefer local pickup, but if u want i can ship it.

good luck. i tried to do the same thing a long time ago, and everybody flaked out at the last minute to buy helmets. we had about 8 people who said they would, but in the end i think only 2 or 3 people actually bought, so it wasnt enough to get a group buy price, so the flakers ruined it for everyone.

hopefully there will be enough people to make it happen this time.

I want to do the group buy in a week or two. So have money by then.

The shop is located in Oakland. You will need to come up/down and fit your helmets.

So here's what I got:
Me, dball33, thx247, tranceformer.

Four people.. I need six more.

Come on, I know you fuckers need helmets.

this is a really good deal...everyone who is thinking about getting into any sort of track event should jump on this...safety is not something to put off or skimp on...great helmet, great price, and accepted by ALL sanctioning bodies...unlike M rated ones...

i'll spread the word in my neck o tha woods as well...

Did you guys check out the bell manufacture in oakland, I believe near park ave. from time to time they have minor defects on the paint process and you can pick one up for in expensive. Or even check helmet city in oakland, which is only web based.

it looks like the group buy is falling apart, so check out the pricing on that national meet group buy, they have a full face one that is priced similarly, plus open designs.

http://www.240sxnationalconvention.org/groupbuy.html

not trying to wreck your buy (not affiliated with anyone) but I just thought I'd try and spread the low prices.

open face is good if you wear glasses or something, but yeah your face will get pretty dirty hehe. when i used to track, i would almost always keep my helmet visor flipped up anyway. but i dunno i think a full-face helmet looks cooler hehe, and i was never uncomfortable in it, so it works for me.

Bell motorsports kicks ass, i bought my helmet and some other crap there and the people there are awesome. a few other norcal folks bought their helmets there too last time i tried to organize a GB. but yeah, you jabronies better buy one NOW or art will become infuriated. and you dont want to see art when he's infuriated...
