Did he have the right helmet for Ed Carpenter? Why would Ed have a William Rast helmet? Visos has a nice paint job.<BR/><BR/>I was half joking about ARAI helmets because 16th's Brackets have featured a helluva lot of Arai drivers!<BR/><BR/>BELL has Marco, Danica, Helio, & I think Darren Manning. Dan Wheldon changes his livery almost every race so he might not wear BELL any more<BR/><BR/>Special Ed's helmet is an IMPACT model & it was the correct image. He has a personal service contract with William Rast (not sure if this pimps T. Bell)<BR/><BR/>EJ Viso's helmet at the IRL Open Test in February showed that he has already changed liveries for his '09 helmet.
