All the clubs give drivers a "grace period" to switch over to the latest but why have to buy another one in a just a few years?

Good question. I'm not so much interested in joining proper clubs, as opposed to open lapping days where any particular organizer can rent out the track and marshalling services. I'm aware this may actually end up being less safe, but I really only intended maybe 2-3 events a year max.
With that being said, you have a fair point still, and maybe I should wait it out for the SA2020s to roll in. Thing is, that won't be until pretty much end of summer, so that means the 2020 season would have been a waste for guys like me who don't have helmets yet
