if i was going to race would i need tearoffs? or would the smith roll things work. my question is because i don't want to wear tearoffs but if it will help my chances of winning shoudl i get them? and do those smith rols work good?

I wouldnt go anywhere without tearoffs. Even in 5 lap motos on a dry day I put 2 or 3 on just to be safe. And if you get the least amount of mud out there, and you're battling, you'll go through twice that... you can't stop and wipe off your goggles on the track. I havent used the roll offs though... but I would wear something... a 25 pack of tearoffs is cheaper than a new lens for your goggles...

i actually did and they work really good, it takes like 2-3 pumps of the lever to get a full clean lense but they work, someone suggested a roll off and 1 tear off, the tear off for the initial start and the the roll off for the rest of the race.

But note coolguy you'll probably have to use these in the air, its not like you can just reach up in a whoop section and tear off a tear off ect... and jumping probably requires a little more skill...
