I had a friend asking me if I wanted to attend
the Hoopa Hillclimb,in Hoopa,CA,this weekend.
I read the brochure,& it gave the requirements
for helmets,fire extinguishers,etc.I looked in my helmet
bag,& found my trusty Simpson full-face helmet -"Snell 1975"
is what the sticker said.Scary.
I looked into hemets,& a good one is at least $130.
I asked the Cortina people about reccomendations,& Don,from
Texas,is sending me his Snell 2005 helmet.Said he had to buy
a new one for vintage racing,& wanted no compensation for it.
I'm planning on at least reimbursing him for the shipping.
I uh,er,didn't discuss attending this with my Wife,
but when I talked to her about it,she insisted that I go!
Now let's see if I can make a 45 year old MGB GT look good,
without embarrassing myself too much.
