Re: M2000 helmets R I P
I think the 05`s are only good for a couple more years. I`m I correct?

Re: M2000 helmets R I P
M = motorcycle helmets are allowed in some classes, but SA are much better, with multiple impact resistance, and flame retardant interior and strap. You might want to check out the Snell website.

Re: M2000 helmets R I P
The SNELL 2010 helmets have been available for a year. (2015 helmets are not available)
The M helmets have nothing to do in Auto racing, buy the SA helmets, they are built for your sport. Some years ago I did a test with a ECE helmet with similar interior as a SNELL M helmet. It took 2 seconds for the interior to catch fire. Within 10 seconds was it totaly destroyed... In S/SS are you mandated to use driving clothes that protects from second degree burns for about 10 seconds, but still allowed to use a helmet that in 2 seconds starts to burn and melt in your face...

Spend a couple extra bucks on a SA2010 helmet, that way its legal regardless of class until 2022.

Re: M2000 helmets R I P
Buy whatever pays contingency. You may never get a chance to claim it but at least you have supported the companies supporting the sport.
