If you were using a SNELL 2000 rated helmet, NHRA will not accept them next year.

When you are making your Christmas list, you might include a new brain-bucket!!

Here is what the NHRA Quick ref chart says about helmets:

Snell 2000 expires 1/1/2012
SFI 31.1A, 31.2A, 41.1A and 41.2A expires 1/1/2014
SFI 24.1/2005, 31.1/2005, 41.1/2005, SNELL 2005 expires1/1/2017
SNELL 2010 expires 2022
 
What if the build date is 01 but it's snell2000, is it still out of date?
 
yup,doesn't matter how much you have used it or when you bought it,track says you gotta have another one.
 
Well, guess that's something to add to the "list". :(
 
Can we still get use "m" rated or is "sa" required? I know sa has the fire retardant lining but other than that the safety is the same.
 
Mine arrived today!

A G Force from SafeRacer.com, not a bad deal, either.
