I'd replace that helmet... no way I would put that on my head again. And, I wouldn't let you ride on my track with that - no way.
In my world, helmet hits the ground = replace.

See i understand to replace a helmet if you head hits the ground cause your helmet is designed withstand a impact but mine never hit the ground just scraped when i slide thats y i dont really feel the need to replace the helmet

I disagree.... just ship it to the manufacturer to get it checked out. They'll either repair it, or give you a good deal on a new one.
