Dirt Track Racing Helmets

The best dirt track helmet depends on your car and budget. For forced air, look at the Bell BR8 or Zamp RZ-67D. For sprint cars, the non-ventilated Bell RS7 X-LITE ULTRA. For a duckbill and SmartLock visor, the Bell XD7. For value, the Zamp RZ-38 Dirt. All are rated Snell SA2025.

A dirt track helmet is built to keep dust, dirt and roost out. Depending on the model, that means sealed or reduced venting, venturi vents that pull air out, chin curtains or filters, and a duckbill or front spoiler for stability on loose surfaces.

Bell's dirt helmets include the duckbill XD7 with the SmartLock visor, the BR8 with its side and top air kit, and the sprint car RS7 X-LITE. Zamp's include the RZ-38 Dirt at an accessible price and the carbon RZ-67D with forced air channeling, ear cups and a hydration port. Every helmet here is rated Snell SA2025.

The Bell RS7 X-LITE ULTRA is a non-ventilated carbon helmet with a duckbill, built for sprint car and dirt track racing. The Bell XD7 helmets are built for dirt track and open-wheel racing. Check your series rulebook for its helmet rules before you buy.

Measure around the widest part of your head, about one inch above your eyebrows, and compare it with the size chart for that helmet, since Bell and Zamp sizing differ. Try it on indoors first. If it doesn't fit, exchange it for another size or return it within 30 days in as-new condition, with original packaging and tags. Custom interior color helmets can't be returned.
