Even in a tintop?most rally drivers don't!think I've got one sorted now just incase cheers

I would have thought you're ok in a tin top.

There was some dope out in a 7 with an aero lip in an open faced rally lid at Llandow a few weeks back. The very same day as I got hit in the face with a stone from a radicals rear slick, I crapped myself, wouldn't have liked it in the eye......

who's it booked through? Have a check on their website, most of them insist on your helmet being ACU gold stamp approved at the least but they all have different regs. There are lots of stories about people getting away with not even getting checked but depends if you want to take the chance....

Not sure who its booked with, some Mitsubishi day and not a mitsi between them!think I'm sorted now either way thanks.

that will be fine at oulton - more interested in noise than lids

As long as it's got the BS mark then you'll probably be OK... butyou'll get some funny looks and if your mates are anything like mine a lot of piss- taking.
