At what point do you need to have a helmet? I know in slower cars it is not needed but they must have moved the speed limit from what it was the last time I raced. I was at Dragway 42 last weekend and Summit Racing Motorsport Park this weekend and man no body was wearing a helmet. Two or three people in the car during a pass. Now this weekend at SRMP it was a street rod event so I could see some slacking as most of those cars were 14 seconds or slower but last weekend I even seen a 4 door with a kids head bobbing around in the back window.

Boy things have changed since I used to race.
