I’m looking for the NHRA 2009 rule book section about helmets. Last time at the track the tech said my helmet needs to read DOT 2011 not DOT 2009. The new helmet I’m looking at reads the below. Will this pass tech?

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
• Standards: DOT-218
• Construction: Injection-molded thermoplastic
• Weight: 2.3 lbs/1050 grams (approx. based on Size Medium Solid Color)
• Packaging: Individually wrapped, bagged and boxed

funny you found a link to info from my local track and i can tell you they do enforce helmet regulations , In NJ all racers regardless of speed must wear a helmet

don't bother with it if its just a DOT rated helmet
dot rating is not accepted by NHRA ,
