[QUOTE="gcassidy, post: 11299270, member: 13216"] Can that huge visor fit in that tiny car? :poke: Troy, just in case you consider NASA, this is from their 2011 CCR: 15.17.3 Helmet All drivers are required to wear an approved a properly fitted and secured helmet while on track. Helmets must be approved by Snell and carry a sticker of Snell 2000(SA2000) or better newer*.
