Quote: I know some tracks require a helmet no matter how slow we go. Does this one? Just want to be sure when we come down.

| Post subject: | YES on the helmets |
Just FYI we all need to have a helmet. From the track web site: 13. Long pants, shirt, shoes, and helmets are requirements in all classes. Fire suits required if mandated for your class or ET in the IHRA rulebook. No shorts or tank tops. Do the helmets need to have a certain rating? Or just any ole helmet will work? Rick |

NHRA/IHRA requires a helmet on closed body cars, running 10.00 to 13.99, be rated. Snell M2000, M2005, M2010, K2005, SA2000, SA2005, SFI31.1A, 31.1/2005, 31.2A, 41.1A, 41.1/2005 or 41.2A. Some track rules and state laws require a helmet be worn in any car in compettition. I have only had my helmet checked for proper rating twice. I make this "assumption", and this is my opinion, so take it for what it is worth. If you run between 10.00 and 13.99, make sure your helmet meets the NHRA/IHRA specs. If you run slower the 13.99 (helmet not required by NHRA/IHRA), I think any helmet would comply. |

Good to hear from you Ron. We look forward to seeing you at the track. I was talking to Gary Bruner and he said the Tn. crowd is planning on being there. It looks like its going to be a great turnout for Elk Creek. Ron Hamby |

Ron and Ron, Can't wait to see The Two Ron's back together on the track. We'll have some newcomers from PA too, and sounds like a great turnout. Slant on, Lou |

It is still very "iffy", but I'm going to try and make it, also. Since The Hagerstown race didn't cost me anything, that leaves some extra money available. |

Charrlie, If you were able to make it and went a few rounds each day I believe that could put you in serious contention for the east Points championship!!!! Just sayin' Greg |
