Default Helmet (Full face or open face)

Just wondering which helmet design you all prefer? There is the full face and there is the tradition open face one. Let me start it off. I'll go with the full face helmet because open face helmets look king of funny. I want to look damn cool when on the track.

I like open face helmets. They're more comfortable and generally have a better field of vision.

Well I own the Bell M2 design and I like it. Don't get a helmet JUST for it's looks. You'd probably be better off buying a full-face helmet for full protection of your head.

If you don't care about what may happen to your face go with an open face helmet. If you care then get the full face plus the neck brace will work better.
