Arai GP-6RC Helmets

The state of the art Arai GP-6RC helmets are a stunning example of Arai's vision and technology made into a real world piece of equipment.  Made from a proprietary weave of Carbon Fiber the GP-6RC helmet combines the existing light weight and and high strength benefits of Carbon Fiber with the added benefit of flexibility which standard CF does not possess.  The flexibility of the GP-6RC's shell allow the helmet to flex on impact and not splinter or shatter like standard CF is known to do.  This gives Arai the ability to produce a helmet ready for the demands and requirements of Formula 1 Racing yet would still be fitting in an art gallery.  The GP-6RC helmet meets and exceed Snell and FIA 8860:2004 standards and every one is built to order.  For several national and international car racing disciplines the use of FIA 8860:2010 homologated helmets will be required  this year.
