I do a decent amount of AutoXing, and want to start road racing track days as well. I know that for AutoX, either open or closed face helmets are ok, but what about most road racing clubs and tracks....what do they require?
Also, should I be looking for a SA2000 rating or will M2000 be ok? I will never have a roll bar in my car.... Thanks |

For autoxing I would recommend a closed-face helmet with big eyeports. Motorcycle helmets have good sized eyeports, I have an Arai I use for autox and instructing hot lappers. Go to a shop that has several different brands and get fitted there. I learned to do this after buying helmet mail order and it was too small. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) You will find different brands have different fits. One style may not fit you at all; best to find out before you purchase. You can shop around, get fitted and then mail order if that is the best deal. Personally I appreciated my helmet fitter so I purchased it from the retail shop I went to (Wine Country Motorsports at Sears*cough*Infineon Raceway).
