I’ve been secretly testing the FIA’s latest specification for trackday helmets but unfortunately I was caught by my paparazzi colleague. Suprisingly it doesn’t look like they are HANS compatible. But they are certainly TOSSER compatible.
Can you believe that I really had to wear this thing as regulatory safety equipment during road testing at a customers test track Our far eastern friends have a good sense of humour, doesn’t look like I’m sharing in it though!
The question is - what’s its purpose?
a) prevention of deposits from seaguls overhead
b) protection from sunburn
c) to give a retro mille miglia feeling
d) increasing of TOSSER credentials
e) …
I’m just glad I didn’t stuff any cars on their track!
Every place I go to you have to wear a hard hat … this is Toyota where you also need a Safety officer with you at all times …
oh and safety shoes, buckle covers and some armband that will save my life apparantly …
The green sign has all the paperwork relating to what we are doing …
