IM not sure youll get the boot from any track running a 13.9 w/out a helmet, I have never seen it. But then again Im the track official at cummins international speedway. Seriously though I wouldnt sweat it.

Good advice if You want to get sent home. They will kick You off every time at infeneon and most of the time at sac. raceway. I don't know about cummin's imaginary track though? ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)

I ran i 14. flat last time around, and next time i go out there i plan on using soem drag radials instead of street tires. so hopefully i'll get a little better time but i heard if i hit something faster than a 14 i will need a helmet, so i thought id ask before i went back out there.

Any Dot or Snell helmet should be fine. They never even looked at my helmet at the track, just made sure I had one.
