SA 2015 rated automotive helmets

[WallyB]

Friends,

Just a heads up, expect 2025 to be the last year SA2015 rated automotive helmets are accepted for HPDE/trackdays.

More than likely clubs won’t accept SA2015 in 2026.

SA2020 helmets are expected to be released on or after 1 Oct 2025.

Go to this LINK to see the differences in the SA2020 and the 2025 helmets. So everyone understands, this really only matters to sanctioning bodies. Most track day event organizers really only want the SA of any year rating. Some, may specify the rating in their requirements. So, make sure to read thoroughly the organizers requirements before registering for an event. As stated at the Simpson link, many recognize the previous rating for a transition period. Bottom line, I'm not replacing my perfectly good SA2020 helmet anytime soon.
