Default Re: VOI9 Track requirements

For us street guys... what kind of safety requirements do we need to be aware of ahead of time. Helmet I'm sure. What else? Anything for this event?
Thanks,
At all past VOIs, drag and track events required ZERO safety equipment beyond stock, except for a helmet was required. And Skippies have loaner helmets (YUCKY-SWEATY) for the truly tight or just curious. Loaner helmet users, I recommend you buy a balaclava (Helmet Sock) beforehand for $1-$5 available at ANY carting venue.

If you plan to BUY a helmet:

1) Buy the lightest weight helmet you can afford. (Full Face = Disabled Airbags)
2) Buy a Snell SA rated (not M-rated) helmet.
