I've been reading all the info I can about how to select a motorcycle helmet. Apparently, not all helmets are equal, and my head is worth far more (to me) than whatever I invest in a helmet. Within reason, cost is not an issue on this safety piece.
While looking around, I realized that many were Snell rated. So, does this mean that my motorcycle helmet can pull double duty as an autocross helmet? -Rusty (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) |

I plan to go looking for a helmet in the next week
or so. My local SCCA rules state I can use a Mcycle helmet for AXing but must be snell rated. After doing some on line shoping I think I am going to get a SA rated helmet. I know it will be hard to roll my 914 at AXing event, but you never know what might happen. I figure the extra $$ is worth it. It will be a full face one also.
