track day helmet

hi guys, a quick question,as title ,i've heard that you need a double D ring fastening on helmets for the track,or is that just for racing,are track days different.it would make an expensive day out if i had buy a new helmet?
cheers baz.

There are no regs about how it fastens as long as it does.

D ring or seat buckle style are fine. No open face/flip lids and it should have the (con) ACU gold sticker on it.

cheers dude ,thanks for clarifying that

No probs. Where and when are you doing your first track day? You'll love it!

not sure yet ,was an idea my brother and i had the other day,
going to use his nc29 so should be a fun day(be like the old stoker days sreaming the nuts of it at 14000 revs)

Just seen where Droylsden is. Not far from one of the best tracks in the UK. Oulton Park. I did my 1st TD there.

i know mate,i went last year with a mate its a cool looking track got a bit of everything

Some call it the grown up version of Cadwell.

A seat-buckle type fastening is ok for trackdays and ACU sanctioned road or track racing events, as long as the helmet is ACU Gold stickered. It's only if you wish to race at an FIM sanctioned event that you will need a double-D ring strap fastener.

Flip lids are acceptable at some trackdays but only if they carry an ACU Gold sticker. I know, cos I've worn one at a trackday and was told by the company owner that as long as it was eligible to wear the sticker that was good enough for him.
