Tony Harman should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Raceparts, Rally design, both good places. I always tend to shop around. One good tip is to think where else parts might be used without the "motorsport" tag, e.g Rod ends & Spherical bearings are used extensively in the boat / yachting business, although have to say often get mine from RalDes. If you're not in a hurry and are ordering reasonable amounts it can be worth getting things in from the U.S. I bought a Smart Level gauge, cost $60 versus £119 from DT !
Note on helmets, Motorcycle rules changed last year for a new regulation UN-ECE-05 (I think) anyway m/c shops are not allowed to sell helments to BS 6658 any more but the MSA will not accept the new UN-ECE spec, I called and checked. Apparently they only do a single impact test (on top, not on sides or visor) and there is no batch testing requirements.
