PCA and most driving clubs, recommend the use of current SNELL SA rated Helmets or their equivalent BSI and SFI counterparts. SNELL certifications are for a ten-year period. SNELL certified 2020 helmets are now available at retail outlets. Therefore SNELL SA and SM 2010 helmets will no longer be accepted at Rennsport events. This rule is applicable to all PCA regional driving events.
As of 2021, ONLY SNELL and 2015-2020 or their equivalent BSI and SFI certified helmets will be permitted.
For the Rennsport 2021 DE season, each driver participating in the Drivers Education program must wear a helmet meeting the following Safety Helmet Standards:
- SNELL Foundation Helmets rated: SA2015 or SA2020 (recommended)
- Equivalent British Standards Institute (BSI): BS6658-85 type A/FR
- Equivalent SFI Foundation Inc. Helmets rated: SFI 31.1A
At the first event attended in the 2021 season, and all subsequent events, you are requested to bring your Helmet to the Tech Line for inspection. A Sticker will be affixed to indicate your helmet meets requirements for 2020 and future DE events.
