Bell M.8 SA2020 Racing Helmet
Wide Eyeport, Lightweight Composite Protection
The Bell M.8 SA2020 Racing Helmet combines classic Bell motorsport styling with modern safety engineering, lightweight composite construction, and exceptional driver visibility. Developed as the next evolution of Bell's legendary M-Series helmet design, the M.8 is ideal for racers who want a larger eyeport, outstanding comfort, and versatile performance for a wide range of automotive racing applications.
Featuring an oversized eye opening that is especially accommodating for drivers wearing eyeglasses, the Bell M.8 offers an expanded field of vision without sacrificing the protective advantages of a full-face racing helmet.
With Snell SA2020 certification, a multi-density impact-absorbing liner, fire-resistant interior, adjustable ventilation, and integrated M6 head and neck restraint mounting points, the Bell M.8 delivers dependable performance for track days, road racing, autocross, and other motorsport applications where its certification is accepted.
Bell M.8 SA2020 Racing Helmet Features
Snell SA2020 certified: Designed to meet recognized automotive racing helmet safety requirements.
Extra-large eyeport: Expansive field of vision, especially beneficial for drivers wearing eyeglasses.
Lightweight composite shell: Manufactured using a high-pressure molding process for strength and durability.
Multi-density impact liner: Advanced multi-piece construction designed to manage impact energy.

Extended size range: Available from XX-Small through 4X-Large.
Available colors: Gloss White and Matte Black.
Extra-Large Eyeport for Maximum Racing Visibility
One of the defining features of the Bell M.8 racing helmet is its exceptionally large eyeport. Designed to offer greater visibility than many traditional full-face racing helmets, the wide opening helps drivers maintain awareness of their surroundings, mirrors, gauges, and changing track conditions.
The expanded eye opening is particularly appealing to drivers who wear prescription glasses or sunglasses, providing additional clearance compared with helmets featuring narrower eye openings.
The M.8 is an excellent option for drivers transitioning from street driving to track events who want a full-face helmet with a more open, comfortable field of vision.
Lightweight Composite Shell Construction
The Bell M.8 uses a lightweight composite shell manufactured using a high-pressure molding process designed to provide consistent structural strength and durability.
This construction balances protection and comfort, helping reduce unnecessary helmet weight during extended racing sessions.
Its traditional Bell shell design provides the familiar appearance of the M-Series while incorporating updated materials and motorsport safety technology.
Advanced Multi-Density Impact Protection
Inside the composite shell, the Bell M.8 features an advanced multi-piece, multi-density impact-absorbing liner engineered to manage energy across different impact conditions.
The liner uses multiple densities of energy-absorbing material to help manage forces during both lower- and higher-velocity impacts.
Working together with the composite outer shell, this impact management system contributes to the helmet's Snell SA2020 protective performance.
Comfort-Plus FR Interior for Driver Comfort
The Bell M.8 features a black Comfort-Plus FR interior designed to provide a comfortable and supportive fit while incorporating fire-resistant materials appropriate for automotive motorsports.
The interior fabric promotes moisture management and durability, helping drivers remain comfortable during demanding driving conditions.
Multi-density interior foam provides additional fit support, helping keep the helmet secure during acceleration, braking, and cornering.
Adjustable Ventilation for Improved Airflow
The Bell M.8 incorporates a versatile ventilation system designed for different track conditions and driver preferences.
Direct-flow chin bar vents allow incoming air to enter the front of the helmet, while manual lever-controlled upper intake vents can be opened or closed to regulate airflow.
This configuration gives drivers greater control over ventilation during hot-weather events and cooler racing conditions.
The adjustable ventilation system helps make the M.8 a versatile choice for both open-wheel and enclosed-cockpit applications, subject to event safety requirements.
Bell SRV-8 Clear Shield with SRV-1 Pivot System
The Bell M.8 comes equipped with a 3mm SRV-8 clear face shield designed to complement the helmet's oversized eyeport.
The SRV-8 shield provides optical clarity and uses Bell's SRV-1 pivot system for opening, closing, and shield replacement.
A synthetic rubber gasket around the shield opening helps reduce the entry of dirt, water, and unwanted air when the shield is closed.
Replacement shields are available in different tint configurations to suit changing light conditions and driver preferences.

HANS and FHR Compatibility with Integrated M6 Terminals
The Bell M.8 SA2020 helmet includes integrated M6 threaded terminals designed for mounting compatible frontal head restraint anchor hardware.
These mounting points allow drivers to install approved HANS or other compatible FHR anchor systems without drilling or modifying the helmet shell.
HANS/FHR anchor posts are sold separately unless specifically included in the selected product package. Always use manufacturer-approved mounting hardware and follow the installation instructions provided with the restraint system.
Integrated Communication and Hydration System Channels
The Bell M.8 includes integrated channels in the facepiece designed to accommodate compatible communication and hydration accessories.

Chillout Systems Club Series Cooling Shirt
$159.00
Chillout Systems Club Series Cooling Shirt
The goal with the Club Series cooling shirt is to provide drivers with most comfortable driver cooling shirt on the market, maintaining safety and comfort at an affordable price. Chillout nailed it!
The Club Series is an entry level cooling shirt, but don't let that fool you. It's made from dual layers of soft stretch cotton concealing a strategically structured layer of thermal conductive cooling veins that target the most vital region of the body – the core. They are designed to work with Chillout's incredible refrigerant-based Quantum Cooling system but work equally well with icewater-based systems like Paragon or F.A.S.T.
The Club Series shirt has cooling efficiency similar to other brands, but in a high-quality, custom designed shirt with the cooling veins hidden between two ultra thin layers of stretch fabric. The stretch fabric is crucial to holding the cooling veins close to the body where heat exchange takes place.
With cooling veins constructed of a matte fire-resistant, self-extinguishing compound developed by the US military, this cooling shirt is rugged and durable, perfect for racing, HPDE, or test days..
Featuring dry-release hose connectors, spillage isn’t an issue because the fluid stops when disconnected.
ADD CONNECTORS
For maximum adaptability, Chillout shirts do not come with connectors. Choose the Chillout Dual Prong connector to connect to a Chillout Systems Quantum Cooler. You can purchase Coolshirt male connectors (sold separately) to hook up to your Coolshirt cooler.
Chillout Systems 4" Neoprene Air Duct Hose
from $89.00
Chillout Systems 4" Neoprene Air Duct
The Chillout 4" Neoprene Air Duct Hose is extremely flexible, pliable and structurally strong thanks to a coated spring-steel wire support helix that prevents it from collapsing. The fiberglass fabric cover and fiberglass cord are both impregnated and coated with neoprene rubber.
With a functional temperature range between -45º F to 330º F, this makes it ideal for most applications, most importantly bringing fresh/cool air to your Quantum Cooler. Also perfect for cockpit cooling and other low-pressure ducting applications where extreme heat can't be avoided. Under-hood applications such as connecting an air intake to an air box, or an air box to a throttle body are also great uses.
FEATURES
4" ID (inside diameter)
Heat resistant to 330º F
Remains flexible down to -45º F
Stilo Helmet Top Air Systems
from $149.95
Keep Your Stilo ST5 Helmet Ventilated With The Stilo Top Air System
Fresh air keeps you cool and keeps sweat from getting in your eyes as you take the checkered flag. Endurance racers keep their focus high and lap times low by staying in the cool zone.
This unique cooling system feeds air from your car's fresh air system to both the top of your head and to the front of your face, while at the same time helping keep the inside of your visor clear. This system integrates into the existing design of the ST5 helmet and does not require any drilling of the shell or modifications to the internal EPS foam.
There are four small ventilation holes molded into the top of every ST5 & ST6 helmet. Stilo's Top Air system fits over the forward two holes and extends down the front of the helmet and just under the top of the visor. Air fed into the Top Air is directed both to the top of the head and down over the face. A small deflector just inside the visor area directs air towards the visor and away from the eyes. Old air flows out of the rear holes on the top of the helmet and from the bottom of the helmet, significantly reducing CO2 buildup in the helmet.
Stilo's Top Air System can be fitted to all Stilo ST5 or ST6 model helmets.

Additional grip zones are positioned along the outer areas of the glove to improve contact with switches, paddles, and other cockpit controls.
Pre-Curved Fit and External Seams
The pre-curved shape has been increased from the previous version to better match the natural position of the hands while holding the steering wheel. This helps reduce material bunching, improves fit, and minimizes hand fatigue during extended driving sessions.

Stilo Helmets ST5 GT 8860-2018 Carbon Fiber Racing Helmet
FIA 8860 Certification valid thru 2032 for these ST5 GT 8860 Carbon Fiber Helmets
The Stilo ST5 GT 8860-2018 Carbon Fiber Racing Helmet is one of Stilo's most iconic and versatile closed-face racing helmets. Crafted from a carbon fiber layup and certified to the demanding FIA 8860-2018 standard, the ST5 GT is designed for drivers competing across a wide range of professional and high-level motorsports.
Building on the successful ST4 helmet platform, the ST5 GT introduces a larger eyeport, improved interior fit system, integrated accessory ports, and extensive compatibility with communications, hydration, and forced-air systems.
Lightweight Carbon Fiber Construction
The Stilo ST5 GT uses a lightweight carbon fiber shell designed to provide exceptional protection while reducing unnecessary weight on the driver's head and neck.
Small shell weight: approximately 3.13 lbs
Large shell weight: approximately 3.39 lbs
Two dedicated shell sizes for improved fit and reduced weight
Using separate small and large shell configurations allows Stilo to create a more proportional helmet rather than relying on excessive interior padding to accommodate different head sizes.
FIA 8860-2018 Certified Protection
The ST5 GT Carbon is FIA 8860-2018 certified, making it suitable for a wide variety of high-level motorsport applications where advanced FIA helmet certification is required.

Forced-air systems
Hydration and drink systems
Combined communications, air, and hydration configurations
Stilo designed these systems to integrate seamlessly with the ST5 platform, making the ST5 GT one of the most customizable racing helmets available.
Larger Eyeport and 3mm Anti-Fog Visor
Compared with the earlier ST4 helmet platform, the ST5 features a larger eyeport designed to open beyond the driver's normal line of sight for improved visibility inside the cockpit.
The helmet comes standard with a 3mm clear visor featuring Stilo's anti-fog coating.
A variety of additional visor options are also available separately, allowing drivers to configure the helmet for different lighting and racing conditions.
Removable Interior Padding
Stilo improved the ST5 interior with removable cheek pads and removable top padding, allowing drivers to fine-tune the fit of the helmet.

This is particularly beneficial for drivers using integrated communications or competing in loud closed-cockpit race cars.
Designed for Communications, Air and Hydration
The ST5 GT is designed from the outset to accommodate multiple driver-support systems without requiring a collection of externally mounted components.
The helmet can be configured for:

$249.00
Sparco Tide Nomex Racing Gloves
The Sparco Tide Nomex Racing Gloves combine advanced grip technology, vibration absorption, and premium comfort for demanding auto-racing applications. Designed with an anatomically shaped palm, external seams, and Sparco-exclusive 3D HTX material, the Tide provides a secure connection with the steering wheel while helping reduce hand fatigue during long stints.
Touch-S technology on the thumb and index finger allows drivers to operate compatible touchscreen data-acquisition systems, mobile devices, and lap-timing applications without removing their gloves.
Sparco 3D HTX Palm Technology
The palm and fingers feature Sparco's exclusive 3D HTX material. This advanced surface is designed to increase grip, absorb steering-wheel vibration, and improve dexterity without adding unnecessary bulk.
The hollow, volcano-shaped HTX structures are strategically arranged to improve durability and maintain consistent contact with the steering wheel. This design helps the driver maintain control while using less gripping pressure, which can reduce fatigue during extended racing sessions.
Anatomically Shaped Palm
The Sparco Tide features an anatomically correct palm that follows the natural contours of the hand. This shape improves comfort and helps the glove remain properly positioned while gripping the steering wheel.
The close, ergonomic construction also improves dexterity when operating paddle shifters, steering-wheel buttons, switches, and other cockpit controls.
Touch-S Touchscreen-Compatible Fingertips
Sparco Touch-S technology places patented fire-resistant, touchscreen-compatible material on the thumb and index finger. This allows drivers to operate compatible touchscreen electronics without removing their gloves.
Touch-S is ideal for using data-acquisition displays, phone-based lap timers, and mobile applications between sessions while maintaining the protective construction of the glove.
External Seams for Improved Comfort
Externally stitched seams move bulky stitching away from the inside of the fingers. This creates a smoother interior surface and helps reduce pressure points when gripping the steering wheel.
The external-seam design provides a more natural feel and improved steering feedback, especially during long races and extended track sessions.
Padded Knuckle Protection
A padded knuckle area provides additional comfort and protection when the hands are bent around the steering wheel. The padding helps protect the knuckles in tight cockpit environments while preserving the flexibility required for precise control.
Elasticated Wrist for a Secure Fit
An elasticated wrist helps hold the glove securely in place while maintaining comfort and flexibility. The streamlined wrist design allows for easy entry and removal while providing dependable overlap with the sleeve of a compatible racing suit.
FIA and SFI-Approved Racing Protection
The Sparco Tide Nomex Gloves are approved to FIA 8856-2018 and SFI 3.3/5 standards. These certifications make them suitable for many professional, club-level, endurance, road-racing, rally, and grassroots motorsport applications.

What's Changing in SA2025 Auto Racing Helmets?
SA2025 helmets are here, and while the changes may not be groundbreaking, they represent an important evolution in motorsport safety. According to the Snell Memorial Foundation, the SA2025 standard is an evolutionary update from SA2020‚ not a complete overhaul. Unlike the M2025 motorcycle standard, which adds rotational impact testing, the SA2025 auto racing helmet standard does not include rotational force requirements.
Key SA2025 Helmet Safety Enhancements:
Increased Impact Protection: SA2025 helmets are required to handle slightly higher impact speeds and achieve lower maximum peak G-force thresholds across all head-form sizes.
Global FIA Alignment: These updated requirements bring the SA2025 standard into alignment with the new FIA 8859-2024 helmet safety regulation, creating more consistency across international motorsports.
In short: SA2025 helmets are designed to offer enhanced linear impact protection, making them the safest Snell-rated auto racing helmets to date. Whether you're a competitive racer or a weekend track day enthusiast, upgrading to an SA2025-certified helmet ensures compliance with future racing regulations and gives you peace of mind at speed.
Stilo ST6 GT Carbon SA2025 Helmet FAQs
Is this Snell SA2025 certified? Yes, this listing reflects SA2025 certification.
What's the difference between GT and FN? GT includes earmuffs for noise reduction and comms; FN is open-ear for maximum awareness and airflow.
Can I use ST5 shields on the ST6? No. The ST6 uses its own shield family; choose ST6-specific shields and hardware.
How should I choose my size? Measure head circumference and consult the pad chart; if between sizes, many drivers prefer the tighter fit for stability.
