Borrow Helmet Request for NSS Event March 6th.

Post by Pewter Sonoma »

I'm looking to borrow a helmet for the March 6th Nashville Super Speedway event. I have one already, but my father is meeting me there and he needs one to be a passenger. Assuming nothing breaks on the car, I'll return the helmet that night if you live in the Knoxville area, especially if you are autocrossing the next day at PSTCC.

I'm not 100% sure of the requirements, but I assume anything that meets our SCCA standards is fine.

I appreciate it!

Any idea what size your dad wears? I have a XXL HJC you're welcome to borrow.

Do they require it to be SA rated?

I haven't seen any helmet requirements (as of yet). If they are allowing me to ride with the top down at 130+ mph with no roll bar, I would guess they are pretty relaxed on the helmet specs.

FYI: My HJC is M2005 rated, so once you do find out the helmet requirements... :D

Apparently they will take almost any kind of helmet, as long as it is not a bicycle one. I'll be down there for the event as well in my craptacular red crx. Come by and say hi, my name is Josh.

Will do. Tony Bolton is going as well. I think the plan is to leave Knoxville around 5:45am and eat breakfast at the I-40 exit near Nashville. Caravan if you want.

Are you just planning on staying up until then to leave?










Just kidding, hope to see you at some events this year.

I mistakenly posted thinking this was a SCCA event. It apparently is not.

Derek's garage will probably look like this by Saturday morning, so he probably won't be there:

Glad to see more people from Knox are going to be there. I don't really know anyone from here so please come up and introduce yourself to me.

I'm going down Friday to see some friends, but thanks for the caravan offer.

My thoughts exactly! I can't see how someone would actually pay money to drink that crap! I'd rather not drink....

Not mine, just the product of a google image search. I'm too big of a beer snob - I hate that swill.
