M2000 is fine. Just make sure the helmet has a sticker INSIDE that denotes the Snell rating. Most have it, but there are still a few that don't. It might have it on the outside of the helmet, on the back, but NHRA tech insists on the sticker INSIDE. Usually tucked under the padding somewhere, won't pass tech without it.

By the way, an SA rated helmet would say "SA2000" instead of "M2000". More expensive. An "M" rating is good down to 7.50 et, unless otherwise stated under class rules.
