they are still saying snell 95 is ok. it all depends on who you get for tech. they sed the same shit last year and ron went up and with the same m95 helmet passed. but id say get the newest helmet you can. and dirtbike and street bike helmets(thats what i use) are cheap enough.

Some street bike helmets are not Snell stamped, I know mine isn't

found a white snell 2010m one on summit for like 130. I'm getting a full face tho, I know its gonna be hot blah blah, but, if something goes wrong, i don't want my whole face exposed...

I prefer to be safe then sorry. Part of winter mods are gonna be roll cage and 5 point harness before i start moding for serious power. I want to walk away from that one freak accident I have....

They let me run with the snell 95 helmet that day but said I need to get a snell 2005 or newer before I could run again. I ended up buying a M2005 helmet for 150 from summit.

Yea, so prices went down haha, m2010 for like 130. its just a plain white one. I plan on finding a white racing suit also so I can be the Stig for Halloween. :)
