problems finding a helmet

hi guys, got a little problem on my hands....well i guess you could say its a "big" problem. the largest helmet i can find is a 3x which is for a measurement of 24.5" around the head....well here is my problem, my head is 27". where can i find helmets for such a massive noggin!!!!!! lmao any held will be greatly appreciated as i will not be able to get any track times with my car as you can tell from the sig i will be well past 13.99. can't pull into tech inspection with a thumpin car with a cage, 5points and all the goods and not have a helmet.

That's not a head, it's a pumpkin. LoL! a 27" head is almost as big as my waist. I'd look like an orange on a toothpick with a head that big.

No I'm a dude. 5'8" 140lbs. I work out a lot and I'm almost back into wrestling shape. In HS my junior year I was wrestling 120 and had a 27" waist. I was almost 32" in college, but since then I've had some more free time, and I'm down to 29" I'm just in good shape. My goal is to get down to 130-135 for kart racing.
