Helmets for track days.

Wondering if there is any requirements for helmets used for track days and on the quarter. Interested in open face as i wear glasses. Any info would be great guys thanks.

Depending on where you go i'm not completely sure if the rules are the same.
As far as im aware, as long as you have a Helmet that complies to Australian Standards (has ASA or Snell Sticker) then you are sweet.

^Yep.

As long as it complies with AS1698 you're all set.

Thanks

no, you actually need AS/NZS1698 for WSID...

From memory as1698 is the old one. The revised/current standard is as/nzs1698.

Don't know the changes that took place with the update could have been a name change to bring Nz standards up. I would have to check

My bad, tis what I meant

[Karl]

Any info on sticker's?

[riced_civic]

u can put what ever stickers u want on it as long it doesnt cover the AS, SNELL or FIA sticker

CAMS regulations say no stickers whatsoever as any tiny scratch voids the safety of the helmet and these can be covered up by stickers.

nva heard that 1, but i guess its right cos it is a safety thing.

saftey is a massive priority for motorsports,

unless you know the rules regarding safety, it is best you do not provide ill-informed comments...
