I could MAKE a better helmet for less than that. Jesus!!!

Estimate the present value of the $$ you expect your brain to make for you for the rest of your life, then add the present value of the non-$ experiences your brain is expected to process for your enjoyment. Compare that to the price of a helmet. If $700 is still too much, you obviously don't expect very much from your brain in the future.

And, yes, no one has ever claimed that track driving is cheap by any measure. Add to that the possibility of a total loss of your car, as insurance will not cover it. You definitely pay to play in that game.
