You can get a decent one for around $100 that is approved and would be fine for cage use - www.mcas.com.au or www.bikebiz.com.au - check out those ones for pricing.

Anything more expensive is designed for riders who will be wearing one all day and need light-weight, ventilation (and nice graphics i might add) ect. I assume yours is just for drag racing?
