GCR is available on line as are the monthly FasTrack's.  I don't think you
even need to be an SCCA member to access the online versions of the GCR or
FasTrack.  

I got my helmet from Impact - direct, knowing that my trusty Bell would be
history at the conclusion of 2006.  I ordered the Impact for use at the 2006
Runoff's.

Several reasons:
1: Nobody in this group said, "remember, new helmet rule this year"
2. Been using the same helmet since 1999. See number 1.
3. You don't need to have a race license to get your car teched.
4. You don't get the new (2007) GCR until you get your license.
5. My new GCR didn't arrive until yesterday.  Teched two weeks ago. See 3.

This must be a great windfall for the helmet makers.  Ordered mine from
Pegasus, not in stock, hope to have it by MAM race weekend.  Should have
bought stock in Bell, Simpson, G-force, etc last fall.
