BELL 500-TX VINTAGE AUTO RACING HELMET FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ):
Remember that safety is paramount in auto racing, and choosing the right helmet and maintaining it properly is essential for your protection on the track. Always consult with the professionals at Discovery Parts and refer to the manufacturer's guidelines for specific questions about your racing helmet.
Why do I need a racing helmet?
Auto racing helmets are designed to protect drivers from head injuries and fire during high-speed races and crashes. They are a crucial safety component in motorsports.
How do I choose the right size helmet? You should measure your head's circumference using a flexible tape measure, then refer to the manufacturer's sizing chart to select the appropriate size helmet. Please review our blog posting on how to properly fit your new auto racing helmet from Discovery Parts.
What safety standards should I look for in a racing helmet? Look for helmets that meet safety standards like Snell and FIA depending on your racing discipline. These standards ensure the helmet's safety and quality. DOT helmets are designed for street use and not for racing and track use.
What's the difference between full-face and open-face, and helmets? Full-face helmets provide the most protection with a complete face shield, while open-face helmets cover the top and sides of the head.
Can I use a motorcycle helmet for auto racing? No, motorcycle helmets do not provide the same level of protection as auto racing helmets, as they are designed for different purposes. It's recommended to use a helmet specifically designed for auto racing which includes fire protection in addition to impact protection.
How often should I replace my auto racing helmet? Auto racing helmets should be replaced every 5-10 years, depending on the manufacturer's recommendations and usage. If the helmet is involved in a crash, it should be replaced immediately.
Are expensive racing helmets safer than budget ones? Safety standards dictate the minimum safety requirements, so even budget-friendly helmets can offer protection. However it’s important to consider how lower-priced helmets are meeting the required testing standards. More expensive helmets are lighter, smaller, are constructed of superior materials, and often come with additional features then less expensive helmets.
How do I maintain and clean my racing helmet? Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and maintenance. You should clean the exterior, interior and shield with the Molecule Helmet Care Kit.
Do I need to wear a balaclava under my racing helmet? Balaclavas are typically not required for Driver's Education events, however they make wearing a helmet much, much more comfortable. Balaclavas will provide fire protection (if fire rated), help keep your helmet lining clean and order free by absorbing the majority of sweat while using it, and additionally balaclavas make putting your helmet on and taking it off by protecting your ears and keeping from from folding over when you helmet is worn. Discovery Parts recommends balaclavas from Alpinestars, OMP, Sabelt, Sparco, and Stand21. If you are entering sanctioned auto racing events, balaclavas will be required for fire protection.
Is the SNELL SA Rating important? The Snell SA2020 certification is a safety standard established by the Snell Memorial Foundation for auto racing helmets. It sets the criteria and requirements that helmets must meet to be considered safe and suitable for use in motorsport events. Snell SA2020 certification is highly regarded in the motorsports industry and is often required or recommended by racing organizations and events. It signifies that a helmet has passed rigorous testing to provide maximum safety for drivers in various motorsport disciplines, including road racing, NASCAR, Formula 1, drag racing, and more. It's essential for drivers to check the specific safety standards required by the racing organizations they participate in to ensure compliance.
Is the FIA helmet certification important? Yes, FIA (Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile) certification is crucial for auto racing helmets, especially in the context of international motorsport events and many national and regional racing series in the USA. The FIA 8859-2015 standard is commonly associated with racing helmets used in various motorsport disciplines. Helmets certified to FIA 8859-2015 met the safety requirements set by the FIA and were widely accepted in many racing series
Which helmet certification is the most stringent and the hardest to meet? The FIA 8860-2018 certification is considered the most stringent and advanced helmet certifications available for auto racing helmets, and it is often associated with top-tier motorsport categories like Formula 1. It's important to note that the FIA 8860-2018 helmets offer a high level of protection and their use is mandatory in many racing series. Drivers should always check the regulations of the racing series they intend to participate in to ensure compliance with helmet certification standards.
Can I wear glasses with my helmet? Most helmets have provisions for wearing glasses or goggles, but check the design to be sure. Most manufacturers feature helmet models with wider eye ports to better accommodate eye glasses.
Are carbon fiber helmets better? Carbon fiber helmets are lightweight and strong, a top choice for racers. But remember, certification matters most.
Can I use a used helmet for racing? It's best to buy a new helmet. Used helmets may have unseen damage or be out of date on safety standards.
Can I buy replacement parts for my helmet, like visors or padding? Many manufacturers offer replacement parts, including visors and padding, to extend your helmet's lifespan.
How can I prevent helmet fogging during races? Anti-fog sprays and inserts are available to help keep your visor clear during races.
What's the importance of proper helmet ventilation? Proper ventilation helps keep you cool and comfortable during races, reducing the risk of heat exhaustion.
How do I store my helmet between races? Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and chemicals in a bag designed to store your auto racing helmet, like the Discovery Parts Evo Helmet Bag.
Where can I buy a certified racing helmet? You should only buy from a professional authorized dealer who has sold thousands of helmets. You can find all the best brands at Discovery Parts online at www.discoveryparts.com or visit our retail store at Atlanta Motorsports park or at one of the hundreds of race and track day events we attend and support.

Sparco Extrema S Driver Race Suit
The Sparco Extrema-S racing suit takes the same patented Hocotex material used in the successful Eagle line and presents in a classically styled suit. Three times as breathable as a traditional layered racing suit, 360º floating arm gussets are combined with a stretch back panel for maximum flexibility and comfort. Extra flat seams provide additional comfort, while traditional design touches such as classic Sparco epaulettes and seamless ankle/wrist cuffs make this suit a perfect platform for sponsor logos!
How does Hocotex work? Racing suits are traditionally constructed using layers of fabric sewn together with a quilted pattern. This quilting creates pockets of air between the layers which expands in a fire, providing thermal protection for the driver. Hocotex uses a honeycomb structure with over 60,000 internal air cells that provide a 10-12% increase in heat protection. Compare this to the 300 quilted chambers found in a traditional suit and the difference is clear!

Chillout Systems IceBox Cooler System 17L
from $550.00
Chillout Systems IceBox Driver Cooler System
Pre-Order Special: FREE 6' Cooling Hose ($170 value)
Pre-Order shipping August 2026
The Chillout Systems IceBox Driver Cooler System is a battery-powered compact, ice-based driver cooling system designed for racing, endurance driving, track days, and high-heat motorsport environments. The IceBox is the first ice-based driver cooling system with a patent-pending Passive Temperature Control system, giving drivers the ability to adjust cooling output anywhere between 45°F and 65°F.
This controlled cooling range helps keep drivers comfortable longer, reduces unnecessary over-cooling, and can extend ice life up to 4x longer than other obsolete ice-based coolers.
A New Standard for Motorsport Driver Cooling
The Chillout Systems IceBox is disrupting the motorsport cooling category by solving the biggest issues found in the antiquated ice-based systems: cold shock, bulky cooler size, inconsistent cooling output, and ice life of under an hour. Instead of circulating ice-cold water with no real temperature control, the IceBox delivers smooth, adjustable cooling that keeps the driver sharp and comfortable for up to three hours during demanding sessions and enduros. All other ice-based driver cooling systems are now obsolete.
Compared to obsolete older style ice cooling systems, the IceBox offers a more refined driver-cooling experience at a price anyone can afford. Its Passive Temperature Control system helps prevent the numbing cold-water shock that can restrict blood flow, leading to discomfort and poor circulation, while Panasonic Vacuum Insulation Panel technology helps lock in the cold for longer cooling performance. Battery power eliminates the need for 12v wiring and switches keeping your cockpit clean and orderly. The compact size and soft-sided construction reduces the footprint needed and offers the lowest weight option on the planet to save you tenths during your next lap.
Built for Endurance Racing
In endurance racing, driver comfort, quick service, and equipment flexibility can mean the difference between a podium finish and a DNF. The Chillout Systems IceBox is compact enough for race car installation and can be managed, serviced, and swapped during long race weekends. Teams can choose the version that best fits their installation needs: with the aluminum tray/baseplate for secure mounting or without the tray for the lightest possible setup.
Panasonic Vacuum Insulation Panel Technology
At the core of the IceBox is Panasonic Vacuum Insulation Panel technology, also known as VIP insulation. This is the same award-winning insulation technology used in aerospace and medical applications. VIP insulation uses ultra-thin vacuum-sealed panels to dramatically reduce heat transfer, helping keep the ice and water colder for longer.
Panasonic VIP insulation delivers 13x better thermal insulation than traditional foam. Because the panels are ultra-thin, the IceBox preserves a full 17 liters of usable capacity without the bulk of conventional ice coolers.
Passive Temperature Control
If you have used traditional ice-based coolers before, the difference is immediate. Instead of numbing cold water that shocks the skin and restricts circulation, the IceBox delivers smooth, controlled cooling that can be adjusted to where the driver’s body performs best.
Two key technologies make this possible: Panasonic VIP insulation locks the cold in with 13x the thermal performance of foam, while patent-pending Passive Temperature Control lets the driver dial cooling output between 45°F and 65°F. Together, they help prevent unnecessary over-cooling, extend ice life, and deliver race-ready cooling performance in harsh cockpit conditions.

Without Tray/Baseplate: Lightweight configuration with battery and straps for teams looking for the most compact and lightweight setup. Weight is approximately 8.79 lb.
The tray version is ideal for permanent race car installation where the cooler needs to remain secure during hard driving, pit stops, and driver changes. The no-tray version is ideal for teams that want the lightest possible IceBox setup or already have their own mounting solution.
