Anybody in the southern california area, that is willing to let a fellow car enthusiast borrow a SA rated helemt for the weekend of November 12th ?? I am attending a track event at willow springs in Lancaster. I'll be willing to either pay a rental fee, breakfast, lunch, brunch, or dinner of your choice. Thanks in advance. I have a medium sized head by the way.

BTW: My Head size is a 7 3/8

Not from Cal but most clubs have loaner helmets for novices.

Otherwise you can pick one up fairly cheap. Try http://www.m2rhelmets.com/2004/Fullface/MR10.htm

Yeah, I've never seen an autocross that didn't have loaners, and he should only need an M-rated helmet for autocross. BTW, M2R is definately good stuff for not much money.

 

Its a speedtrialusa.com event

Q: I plan to get a SA2000 helmet, but was curious as to why M2000 aren't allowed?

A: SA2000 is for automobiles, fireproof and is able to withstand multiple impacts. M2000 is for motorcycles, not fireproof and is only good for one big impact.

Q: I got myself a used helmet for autocross, it's Snell-95 or M95. Will I be able to use it?

A: The track tech is very strict and will not allow any motorcycle helmets. The helmet must be Snell Auto 95 (SA95 or SA2000).

 

Your title is a little misleading. It's not an autoctoss event, it's a grip road course event.

If you're planning to buy an SA helmet anyway, STUSA was having a group buy on SA 2005 helmets. I'm not sure what the deadline was, but you might want to email them.

The "M2" and "M3" are Bell model names, not ratings. The M2 and M3 are SA2000 rated AFAIK.
