I just realized that I only have a helmet from my motorcycle days. It is dot approved and only a year or so old.
Its a half helmet. Is this going to pass so I can run tomorrow at the shootout? Its only a 12 second car to my knowledge.
Thanks for replying.

E2o enforces the helmet rule, as long as you have something that looks like a helmet covering your head you'll be alright. You need a helmet at 13.99 and lower I believe, unless you have a convertible, then e.t. is irrelevant, you'll need one at any speed.

That has been my experience at the track and even SCCA auto-x.
Now drivers' schools are another monster... :(
