besides trash, I was wondering what some of you did with your old expired helmets

seems like i'm collecting quite a few now.

Sell them to the dirt track roundy track guys !! Or put them in the local papers classifed ads.There are a lot of uses where they are OK to use besides drag racing !

I had one autographed by a bunch of drivers at Bristol and then our corvette group auctioned it off and gave teh money to St. Judes

I just sold a brand new Simpson Super Voyager I bought in 2002 on Ebay for $275, haha who knows where it was going but it went.

I like the charity and e-bay idea. Plus I already have enough lamps from broken parts. I'm amazed that other racing associations do not require the same SFI requirements

The autograph idea is pretty cool also. Just drag it along next time you go to a national event and get it fiiled up,,anyone can get a T-shirt signed, but a helmet would look cool in a rec-room or showcase.

Bill,
Table Lamps?????
My wife would never go for it. I learned a long time ago that I have NO input on the decorating. When I did, I never heard the end of it.
