Hi, I am a Newbie here, does Helmet Porting gain HP?

[I Dare Ya Rene!]

I ride a 340 Yamaha and sometimes jump on an old Skidoo. My brother Ray said if you drill holes in your helmet you will get higher on the hill and gain HP!
Is this true?

Here is a pic of my back yard yesterday. It sucked, when the fresh pow wasn't blowin in my face the flippin sun was too bright!

Welcome to the site. Yah that 340 sure can get you into trouble I heard.

I believe that this modification only works if the drill bits enter the cranial cavity. This is the only explanation that I have for you. Somewhere, sometime certain self-preservation areas of the hypothalamus were lost forever LOL.

Good to have you online here. Have to admit - my sense of sarcasm seems to be lost on certain other forums but not here...............

Sent you a PM. Talk to Brent? at Vernon Motorsports. Have the Turbo Nytro booked for a day when we come out at the end of March. Maybe I can outclimb my 11 year old with some new iron.

P.S. Nice picture. Sucks to be you!

Hey Rene, the only way drilling holes in your helmet will help is if you keep in on and go at least 6 inches deep. Not only will it reduce the weight, you won't remember all the reasons to head home and your riding day will be longer. (side effects include blurred vision, stuttering, not remembering who you are, shaky hands, the desire to take tons of Vaigra, throwing up, loss of sex drive, headaches and the desire to sleep all day).
I would recomend that you consider this options as it has worked so well for Raymond.

Cheers

Be careful as too many holes in the head and you might end up looking like this.

Of course this might make your steering a bit strange but think of all the girls you'll pick up in the bar. Girls dig a sharp dressed man with a 2' mohawk.

LMAO

WELCOME ABOARD, RENE.... DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN DROP AND ROLL THE HELMET TOO. GIVES YOU A BETTER APPROACH ANGLE FOR THE WIND, ALONG WITH THE HELMET PORTING, I THINK YOU'D HAVE A WINNER THERE......... BE SURE TO PUT YOUR HOME FLAG/PIN ON THE "MEMBERMAP" ON THE FRONT FORUM PAGE, DOWN THE LEFT SIDE.......

OK that dude must have quick straps on those goggles, right? must tape the velcro to the side of his head hey?

 

[tmix]

Hey Rene, thats 340 hps right aren't you riding a turbo?

 

[162SKIDOO]

And just to make sure you do the job correctly and only have to do it once....please insert your helmut into a large vise and squeeze it until flat as a pancake ...this will insure you get the holes exactly perect for more balance and equal air distribution. I've heard it makes the thing just rip after with up to .03 HP gain.Please dont forget to phone - a - freind to help with vise installation and drilling....also please remember to have your head in helmut as this will also insure a proper "FORM FIT" felling after completion. And just to help with the entire process i always...ALWAYS put a DEPEND under the vise because it makes clean-up a bloody breeze.Also could you video the process for others to learn from you and can i have the little casino cash you have since you may not need it anylonger!!??

Here is a shot of Rene's Turbo, if your not sure it's him he's made it easy by putting his name on the windshield.
Note sledderglen in the background hitting on Frenchies girlfriend...lol..

 

[Sledderglen]

Thanks for reminding me about Frenchies girlfriend She was a very nice girl. There should be more female riders out there. Lucky Frenchie, he better make that girl his wife. Shes a keeper
You have no proof I was hitting on her. DOO YOU?

 

[Sledderglen]

Hey I bet that ET 340 realy rips. Try the new booster fuel that is available. Easy hook up just attach a hose from you green insulated coverall near your butt area connect it to the carb. Then have a big feed of refried beans from Moose Mulligans and let it perk for a while then get riding and hit the fart button when you need to reach that highmark. May work may not but it`s cheaper than NOS and easier to pack around. Just be carefull when you go in the cabins. Another version is to attach a hose from you vented helmet into your coveralls around your neck and as you speed up it builds pressure and combine the 2 together pressure and gas it will beat those turboed Apexs everytime.JMHO

NOW THAT'S FUNNNNY......... BOOOOYAAAAH

Glenn:

I think you do protest too much. Hell, I would be WAYYYY more worried if you weren't trying to hit on Angelle at that very moment. But we don't want to cast dispersions about your manhood - do we?

Just don't see what Angelle sees in Felix (Frenchie). That square jaw, rugged good looks and debonair quebecois attitude don't do anything for me. But to each his own!

 

[Summitric]

YOU KNOW FRENCHIE TOO... MAN THIS IS A SMALL WORLD, AND SEEMS TO BE GETTING SMALLER..... WHEN YOU OUT THERE AGAIN, BAREFOOTER??

 

[SLEDBUNNYRACING]

Frenchie is a great guy and a strong rider...came to the west for a sled ride and never went back...wow....
I'll try and post the video of Frencie clipping the tree while coming out of a climb...priceless.
