Tom, I will do what I can. I will have my laptop and a Verizon hotspot... just not sure how much time I will have with all of the cars that we're trying to support.

This is going to be GREAT!!!

Tom,

I cannot see any decals on or inside my helmet showing the Snell rating, etc.? where should I look for it? I bought it for the GT School and paid close to $700 for it! Thanks

I'll be there tomorrow first thing in the morning. Work lasted way too long, and I can't possibly make tech in time.

They are always under the lining, Lift it up it's there. Usually under the left side cheek cushion.
