Racing Helmets are safety helmets worn by go-kart drivers in ArmA 3. They were added with the release of the Karts DLC.
Overview[]
A commercially available safety helmet ideal for motorsports events, the Racing Helmet offers both comfort and safety to its wearer. It has a weight of 40 "mass" units.
It is rated at Level I protection standards and covers the head and face. Racing Helmets are not intended for combat situations but can potentially save the wearer from being outright killed by a 9 mm round at non-point blank ranges.
Because they shield the wearer's entire head, Racing Helmets are also surprisingly decent at minimising damage from small indirect explosions, though large explosions and direct hits will still ignore the helmet's blast protection.
