The BELL XR7 ULTRA and BELL XR7 PRO helmet is designed and optimized for open-cockpit cars. This means you can use this helmet on any open-wheel race car, formula kar ou kart racing. The features that make this race helmet best suited for an open-cockpit car are:
- Integrated aero features: a gurney in the front of the helmet that adds downforce to the helmet, and then we have a rear wing that adds a separation point and prevents the helmet from buffeting at higher speeds.
- Unique ventilation trick: traditional BELL vents at the upper chin bar, but then we have lower air intake vents in the lower chin bar, and then at the top, you have adjustable vents that you can open and close depending on what type of airflow you want inside the helmet.
