Helmets for Track Day

[GTMD]

Hi Folks,

Seeing as helmets are required for our track day, is it recommended that we buy/bring our own or will there be helmets available for rent/borrowing?

Thanks and sorry for the rookie question :shrug

All UMC OTD participants are required to wear an approved helmet while on track.

Car helmets (SA) must have DOT/SNELL ratings.
Helmets cannot be older than 2005.
Dirt bike/Motorcycle helmets (M) will not be allowed. (The SA standard requires a flammability test; the M standard does not.)
If you do not have a helmet, you can rent one from us for $20/day

If we need to reserve a rental helmet, who to contact?

If anyone is driving through Vegas and needs a helmet I have one I'd sell cheap. Aria GP-J3 size XXL (7-3/4 - 7-7/8). Snell 2010, so it times out soon. I used it three times, last at R9.

It's an open face version, fine for use in our enclosed GTs, so easier to get eyeglasses on and off.

Edit: I looked it up and the expiration is +12 years, so this is good to 2022.

Too big for my peanut-sized head but thanks!

Good question Pete! I'm curious too.
