Would this be an acceptable helmet to use? It's rather inexpensive which is always nice.

I feel dumb, but the info says:
"The Eliminator helmet carries both the Snell M2005 and SFI 41.1/2005 rating"
Obviously this isn't SA2010 rated....but it will still work?

As far as I know, they're good for two cycles. @005 will be good till 2015, unless the rules change or have changed

Bare with me here, im a noob when it comes to the track lol.
So you're saying that 2005 is still good etc, but did they change the way they label it?
I.e. That helmet is M2005, vs others being SA2010. Did they change the M to SA in 2010?
I guess i'm trying to say 'are m and sa the same thing?
Once again, bare with the noob questions.
I'm new to the track, not at all to the car itself.

Thank you! lol.
Although the rating makes me sad, The amazon helmet link was a good price, and aesthetically identical to the helmet with the proper rating..I guess it costs more to smash test it more..and set it on fire.

Yeah, I gave it a good read. Extremely useful info, I was just expressing my sadness for the cosmetic similarities, yet the rating differences.
