Helmet question

[Guillermo]

I have a Snell 95M helmet I use for solo2 racing.
Is this good enough for rubber to ice?

The Ice Racing 2005 Regulations specify these requirements for Helmets:
Page8 Section 3.0

"All drivers and passengers shall use a helmet conforming to:
i) Snell 90M & SA
ii) Snell 95M & SA
i) Snell 2000M & SA"
http://www.casc.on.ca/documents/iceraceregs05.pdf

According to the solo2 regulations Snell SA rated helmets are required for cars with roll cages. I know these helmets cost alot more then the regular motocycle type Snell M rated helmets we solo2 guys use.

Is a Snell SA rated helmet required for ice racing without a cage in the rubber to ice classes?

SA rated helmets aren't required in any class at all.

it's not like solo where you need an SA for any car with a Roll Bar.

Well G,

As you have posted:

"All drivers and passengers shall use a helmet conforming to:
i) Snell 90M & SA
ii) Snell 95M & SA
i) Snell 2000M & SA"

So your helmet would be ii).

:D :D :D

Thank you, that's good to hear.

But I believe it's misleading because it says:
"Snell 95M & SA"

Shouldn't it say "Snell 95M or SA"?

:confused:

It is implied as a Snell approved helmet that have two models approved of the Snell helmet. The M and SA are both apporved.
