Do not buy a motorcycle helmet. Most tracks and events won't let you wear them because they don't have Nomex linings. If you catch fire the nylon lining melts to your face. I would hope you would spend the extra $150.00 for the Snell SA2000 rating. You have to be careful because many of the ads are missleading and say Snell approved which cycle helmets are. They are rated M and what you need is SA. Often the only difference is the lining.
