Hey Adam...the ratings on these helmets are good, but do you know if they are DOT approved. I need a new helmet but the track I race at has a rule that they have to be DOT approved. Thanks and those are very good prices

dot approved helmets only apply to motorcycle helmets? - as they're used on public roads. Motorcycle helmets shouldnt be used for auto racing.

very good point Shaun - the only DOT approved helmets I see are for motorcycle and dirt bike use. Snell 2005 is approved by every racing organization I am aware of

I agree with you..thats what the M (motorcycle) is for in the Snell rating. I'm a drag racer and since alot of bikes race at the strip, I think they just made it some stupid rule...


I just checked with Simpson product line (they do alot of drag racing apparell) and the SA2005 also can have a DOT rating. SA products are for car racing.

any motorcycle helmet that is snell rated *should* also be dot approved, since it's a more stringent rating.

wow i never realized that, but that's good to know.

seems kind of ridiculous for an auto racing helmet to have dot approval since they're illegal to wear while driving a car on public roads

Its Bradenton....The track manager also said I needed to wear a full fire suit,but I just were the jacket. Like I said, I think its their own stupid rule and every time I go they come up with new ones

You're right about that....but maybe Simpson is DOTing their SA rated helmets in case someone uses that SA rated helmet while riding a motorcycle on the street.Probably some liabilty reasons...
