is one type of helmet truly safer than the other, or is it just a matter of preference?

If you plan on any time on the track, be sure to get a SA rated helmet, not M rated. SA2005 just came out, so SA2000 helmets are getting sold cheap. They will still be good cert wise for 5 years, and i replace helmets that often anyways
