Dave,
So far from what I've heard is as long as the helmet is SNELL approved then it's accepted. This means MOST of the motorcycle helmets can be used for autoX... can someone on the aboard verify this??
I used to ride so I still have my motorcycle helmet and would like to know if I could use it for autoX...
Thanks,
K

I purchased a G-Force open face helmet for around $150 4 years ago or so from http://www.racerwholesale.com/catalog/
the lining is wearing out in some areas, but otherwise no complaints.

I'm game to try my hand at some auto-x, too. Looks like a blast! I'll have to start shopping for a helmet. Any advice on helmets from you experienced guys?

If you plan on doing a lot of track days, start looking into Racing helmets (link above) with a Snell S(a)2000 rating . Or you can just get on like that cause your a REAL BIG S2k freak!!
