Come'on guys! Those Subie queers are talking so much trash about the Z we have to show them a true sports car! $45 for non-SCCA members, $40 for non-SCCA Military members & $35 for SCCA members isn't bad for a day worth of racing! I know you all spent $30 for 5-6 runs at Bandi and that 14-16 seconds of aiming a car straight. Even shorter for you Kevin! If you don't know what class your in, PM me a mod list and I'll contact my buddy that will help figure out what class. You can register now and pay the day of the event! Andrew, I better see you there!

Go to a motorcycle shop and you'll be good to go.
You could also borrow a helmet or used one of the loaner helmets there.

For maximum protection, helmets must fit securely and should
provide adequate peripheral vision. The chin strap must be
securely fastened. Loaner helmets should be available to vehicle

If I'm off I will attend. I don't care what class I'm in cause I'm not looking for a win. I just want track time, hone in some basic skills and enjoy my car. And If I come in dead last behind a guy on a unicycle, then more reasons to do more track events!

I have intake and spacers so I figure I might be in the BSP. Don't get too excited robert, I have to check my work schedule first.....I know how much you miss me but just wait a little.

Anyhow!!! 
You might still be able to run BS. I think you fall into BSP when you upgrade the brakes, & suspention. An intake shouldn't hurt you and a spacer is to hard to notice unless you are looking for it.

For any on the fence about this event, here's an in-car video shot from a 350Z (not mine) at an auto-cross, to show you what to expect:

I won't be attending this event (for reasons I won't bore anyone here with), but I will say that auto-x is a good way to increase your car-control skills with minimal (or no) risk to your car. For those that don't want to take their car onto a track for fear of damage, this is the next best thing, as there's not much to hit in a parking lot filled with cones.
