Does that mean I should wear a helmet, when i driving down the hwy doing 140km/h
don't know about you, but the speed limit around me is 65 mph(~105 kph)... I don't care how baller or jdm you are but I think safety should always come first. If those are full speed shots then I've lost my respect for you guys. But hey, who cares about my opinion right?

Why does it have anything to do with JDM? educate me on this one.

On that track, they have no restrictions on helments, and most of the people just drive without them. It has been like that for years, and nobody ever had a problem.

You're sarcasm meter is probably broken.

I'm sure that track hasen't had a problem, and I'm not saying they will, but everything's peaches and cream until one day when there is a rollover , and the person not wearing a helmet has massive head trauma or worse dies. Rollovers do happen.

Really it's a simple insurance policy, how much does a helmet cost compared to the cost of those bling parts on their cars? Every track I've been to has required it. It's common sense. Hey 99.9% of time nothing happens when you drive on the street, so why wear a seat belt right??

If those pictures were of parade laps then go head and call me a whining anal beatch, but the OP said they were full speed laps.

BTW, the OP probably doesn't care for my safety concerns, and I don't care for his lack of them, but this is a public forum so you should probably be expecting some responses to differ from you're typical JDM orgy fest that goes on here.

I dont see why you had to drag the topic from the safety issues to being a JDM fan?

You STILL didnt give us a direct answer for the quesiton above.

Oh maybe you never had one, but you felt like barking.
