Default Racing rental cars in Portland Oregon I have no Helmet ?????

I am working in Oregon, I am out from MN. I want to race at Woodburn tomorrow with the rental car but it dawned on me that I dont have a helmet! Does anyone know where I can purchase one early? Any advice will help, I can wait til Sunday...I guess :shock:

"I am dropping the hammer"... good ol Cole Trickle.

What kind of rental car are you planning on subjecting to the track may I ask? Charger? Mustang GT? Camaro (47th generation) or Challenger maybe? Guys @ woodburn are pretty cool; I bet you could show up & borrow one/get an extra.

Be sure to report your best ETA if you go... we need to see which rental is the most bang for your buck.

I have heard stories of folks like you who would rent a 428/Mustang & bang gears at the track for the weekend.... wish I could have been there with ya... my generation got the "K" Cars... they were good for about a 23.77 eta if they did not blow a head gasket on the way.
