NHRA General Reg 10:7 says that at 9.99 and quicker, you need a full-face helmet that meets SFI 31.2A, 41.2A, Snell K98, 2000, 2005, or 2007 specs. Section 5A:10 says that for all 9.99 and quicker closed-body cars, a full-face Snell M2000, M2005, K98, K2005, SA2000, SA2005, SFI 31.2, or SFI 41.2A helmet is mandatory.

just got my helmet the other day. If you havent bought one yet, I got a K-1 sport for $329 on clearance. Can get a L or XL at that price. It came from xtreme supply. They are a bell store. Eric was real nice, even threw in another bag for free since they didnt have the visor i did want. heres some pics of it. Also anybody wanting crew shirts made, EmbroidMe in Myrtle Beach, SC did a fantastic job on the shirt.
