Can you use old helmets?
Are there any sanctioned rules in autocross about using old helmets? I have one thats about 10 to 15 years old and I'm not sure if you're supposed to use something new or a couple years old at the most. Who knows for sure?

Negative. 2005 rating is the oldest allowed. I run LVRSCCA monthly.

Most places I've run will accept SNELL M or SA helmets for the current and two preceding 5 year revisions. 2015 current, 2010 and 2005 acceptable.
