Helmets for 2010

Post by scottgib »

Essentially the only change is that M95 will no longer be legal. SA95 and later plus M2000 and later will be legal. All K98 and later will be legal.

The helmet requirements will have some changes in the 2010 Solo Rules, section 4.3.1: “Helmets meeting one of the following standards must be worn while on course: Snell SA2010*, K2010*, M2010, SA2005, K2005, M2005, SA2000, K2000, M2000, SA95, K98; SFI 31.1, SFI 31.1A, SFI 31.2A, SFI 41.1, SFI 41.1A, SFI 41.2A; BS6658-85 Type A/FR.”

*Snell SA2010 and K2010 helmets will not be available for retail until October, 2010. The current standards continue to be Snell SA2005 and K2005. Snell M2010 helmets are available now so the Snell M95 helmets will no longer be compliant for SCCA Solo events in 2010. Regions should check their inventory of loaner helmets. Snell SA95 and K98 helmets will be good through 2010. For more information, visit the Snell website, call the SCCA Solo Technical Dept, or send an e-mail to Doug or Brian.
