G-FORCE Racing Gear makes the extra effort to build the best helmet at an affordable price. Check out the G-FORCE Racing Gear helmets quality and features and see how our quality and features blow the competition away.
Exceptional Paint Finish: G-FORCE Racing Gear helmets have seven coats of paint and each layer is wet sanded by hand. All the layers of paint and clear coat have the depth of a show car paint job. You will find one or two coats on competitors helmets.
G-Flow Ventilation: A fully adjustable ventilation control system was designed to be suitable for all types of racing. The G-Flow ventilation system includes front chin, forehead, and rear vents. This allows the racer to have maximum flow on really hot days and low to no flow on cooler days or for dirt track racing. Most of our competition may offer some vents on the front but nothing on the rear of the helmet.
PBI Fire Retardant Interior: A PBI fire retardant liner is used exclusively in all Snell SA-rated helmets. PBI is a vastly superior product compared to the Nomex® most manufacturers use in their helmets. PBI is a better fire retardant material, and because it is hypo-allergenic it will not irritate your skin like Nomex can. Plus, PBI is cool and comfortable to wear. Most other manufacturers do not use it because it is much more costly than Nomex. One manufacturer even uses an FR cotton interior that is cheaper than Nomex® to cut costs, and quality, even further.
Breath Deflector: G-FORCE Racing Gear has engineered a unique breath deflector for our helmets. It helps to keep your shield fog free and is easily removed for cleaning. This helps give the driver a clear view, even on humid days and evenings. Most helmet manufactures sell a breath deflector as an expensive option and others do not even offer one. It is standard on all of the G-FORCE Racing Gear full-face helmets.
Optically Correct Molded Shield: We went to the added cost of using a very expensive mirror polished mold to produce our shields. Most manufacturers cut theirs out of a sheet, lay it on a form in an oven in order to bend it to fit their helmet. Have you ever bent a sheet of plastic and noticed how it distorts your view? G-FORCE Racing Gear went to the expense of a mold so you could have a clear view on the track.
Lightweight Fiberglass Shell: We went to one of the worlds top chemical scientist to develop our new fiberglass resin. The new resin allows G-FORCE Racing Gear to make a top quality lightweight shell that passes the tough new Snell 2000 helmet specs with ease.
Snell SA2000 - M2000 - K1998: Our
customers have asked what the difference is between a Snell SA2000, M2000 or a K1998 certification for a helmet. All Snell tests for these specifications include multiple impact tests at -20 degrees, 78 degrees (dry and wet) and 120 degrees. The Snell M2000 specification is the base for the specs. Snell K1998 - a spec designed for karting - uses a thicker shield. The SA2000 - used primarily for auto racing - adds not only the thicker shield, but also the use of flame retardant paint, trim, retention strap and interior. The Snell SA2000 helmet also meets an additional rollbar impact test.
