Some more info on helmets from the SCCA RallyCross rule book. The air bag thing is interesting. Seems an open face helmet is preferred.

M. Snell 90 “SA” or “M” labeled helmets are approved for use. Snell SA
1995 or newer will replace this standard on 1/1/06. This is a
minimum standard for use in RallyCross, other approved helmets
are:
1. British Standards: BS 6658-85 type A/FR, including all
amendments.
2. SFI Foundation, Inc.: SFI Foundation, Inc.: SFI Spec 31.1.

N. It has been brought to the attention of SCCA Technical Service that the
use of full-face or closed-face helmets while driving vehicles with active
airbag restraint systems may result in injuries in the event of a crash that
deploys the airbag. Because of the location of the steering wheel
relative to a driver’s position, the airbag axis is on a level with the
driver’s chin. In a crash with airbag deployment, contact with the chin
area of a full-face helmet can be so powerful “that the risk of fractures to
the jaw cannot be ruled out “ (Hubert Gramling, FIA institute, FT3/AF,
18.5.1999). This applies to vehicle that may be used in Solo,
RallyCross, High Performance Car Control Clinics, etc. Therefore, it is
highly recommended that full-face helmets not be used in vehicles with
functional airbag systems. Potentially more restrictive language is
currently being considered for 2005, which could appear in an early
2005 issue of FasTrack.

 

Judd,
Nice meeting you today. See you at the next race !
