Our registration is still pending but all apps postmarked by the 4th will be accepted, so we’re in!

When they said it sells out fast I didn’t think that fast!

Good to hear! Yes, the helmet light is key to having light EVERYEHERE you look. fills in all the gaps. As far as the Airoh helmet. keep in mind it doesn't matter if the light is titled, as long as that beam is facing forwards, that is all you need. even if the helmet light isn't getting full contact on the mount strip, you are OK. 1 square in of contact = 10 lbs of strength. so even partial contact is enough to get the job done! I have adhered to many an airoh helmet. It can work! Good to hear!!

Thank you, Mark. I figured it out.





I might need a second helmet light now for symmetricity!

 

[MrTaskRacing]

looking good! Always can move to 2 if you need!

Philip it looks like you've been punched in the mouth before...

LOL! There are two things that I hope future Airoh models have improved: a mouthpiece that can take roost, and a rubber edge trim that does not let dirt permeate it through.

 

[MrTaskRacing]

Just put a little foam in that chin piece, it'll filter out dirt in the gaps!

Ok..... I expect today that our team will be put on the registered list. As of yesterday the organizers said they had not received our registration form. From what I was told by my buddy who has been doing the event for years, the organizers will register past competitors first. If I thought the event was going to sell out in 3 days I would have sent the registration by Priority mail with tracking. I know my buddy sent his registration the same day from the same post office as I mailed ours, and his team was listed on Friday. So, it's unlikely they didn't receive ours.

@Philip maybe it's time for a new helmet too? That thing looks like there isn't a spot on it that hasn't been hit by something.

 

[Philip]

Errr... that's a paint scheme.

 

[snydes]

Haha! I thought the same thing too at first!

 

[wildman240]

Errr... that's a paint scheme.

It's effective.

True~ that thing has got some experience for sure, and probably a little pain too~
Sure hope you guys got registered. Are you talking to Jake Dennis?

I sent them a message via their Facebook page. Someone got back to me within minutes, which was nice of them. Tonight they should update the website again, if we're not on the list I will try to reach Jake tom'w. I don't want to be known as the paranoid guy...... but......

Errr... that's a paint scheme.

But what does it accomplish. Psych out the competition? Don't want to pass out of fear? Just wondering?

I guess it hides the real damage you'd do to it yourself a bit better.
