Helmet Color
Has anyone seen any studies or have any thoughts on which color of helmet might get the most attention of cage drivers.

RE: Helmet Color
It is a fact that white is the most visible color for helmets. Now I gotta do a search to back this up.

RE: Helmet Color
Dont know... but studies have shown that red sports cars gather the attention of the cops the most... and more tickets... now the real question is, is da cops attracted to the color red (the studiesclaim) or the majority of people with sports cars like red... thus the higher number of tickets... I report, you decide....

Very good question. I have heard from various vendors both ends of the spectrum. I just sent an inquiry to 3 helmet manufactures. Let's see what they say.

I was always under the impression white was the most visible and cooler in hot weather than a dark helmet .

Get a yellow one ... with a flashing strobe like a school bus.
