Helmet standard revised effective Oct. 1, 2025

Revision announced for the SNELL special applications standard for protective headgear for use in competitive automotive sports
 
The new standard is SA2025. SA2025 helmets from all manufacturers will not be available for purchase until October 1, 2025.
 
Helmet usage guidelines:
 
·    SA2020 Helmets: These will remain valid until the SA2030 helmets are released on October 1, 2030. 
·    SA2015 Helmets: These helmets cannot be used after October 1, 2025.
 
If you currently have an SA2015 or SA2010 helmet, we strongly recommend replacing it as soon as possible to stay in compliance with safety standards.
 
Helmets are required for PCA's autocross, club racing and driver education events.
