I am sure there may be a few out there like me who let their SA2005 helmets expire prior to getting a replacement
The problem I am seeing now is that a lot of SA2015 helmets are on backorder with indefinite delivery times
In talking to an authorized helmet dealer in the area, he told me that a lot of clubs have extended their expired helmet use for a few months due to the pent up demand in SA2015 helmets with lack of supply and indefinite delivery time
Could an expired helmet extension say through June/July be a possibility or will I have to beg, borrow, steal, or share a helmet for my first event (assuming the helmet is still in good condition)?
Looking forward to getting the season underway and seeing the motorsports family again!
Thanks,
Rick
(I know I know shame on me for not replacing my helmet sooner...)
EDIT - sorry I am seeing this has been discussed in the below thread and that the BOD is not relaxing on the usage of expired helmets... Beg, borrow, steal, share it is!

Re: SA2005/Expired Helmet Use Extension
For anyone still looking for an SA2015... I called a couple vendors 2 weeks ago and had pretty good luck:
http://www.apexperformance.net/
Good stock on most sizes of Zamp, all sizes Racequip, Stilos (except XL/XXL)
Offered promo code: 'APEX' 10% off, free shipping, free helmet bag
http://soloracer.com/
Good stock on all sizes of Pyrotect
Obviously inventory may have changed in the last 2 weeks, but they seemed to be very well stocked at the time.
