Helmet opinions
I will be needing a helmet for auto-x and time trials on the track. I'm not sure if I want an open or closed face unit. For on track, I will not be racing, just doing laps. So far, I was thinking of the Bell Mag4 or Mag5. Opinions?

ones too fast according to CHP!
Open face or full face, just be sure to spend the extra $ and get a kevlar or carbon helmet. The weight difference may not seem like a lot, but after using it on track all day, it is a biggie. Less stress and tension on neck!
Also, it is a safety issue, as it is less weight to propel your head forward (whiplash) in an accident.
