I just want to remind everyone ,
Helmets will be required at this years Run Thru The Hills .
So , don't forget to bring one.

Helmets have never really been a "requirement" at the RTTH's in the past , but Bill always encouraged people to wear them..

This year , the insurance company wants us to wear them , so .....
Everybody bring one .
For safety's sake.

For Safety or anonymity? ;) Depending how thirsty I get at Bill's on Saturday it may be a good idea for me to have it on then................

Some of us on here have heads so big that there are no manufactures who make a helmet big enough for our head or ego.

What's a guy to do now????

Are passengers allowed on the autocross? (assuming they have a helmet also)

Also: any requirements on the helmet requirement? Dot spec? Face shields? Do bike helmets count?

I'd love to say anonymity, since it'd be all stealth ninja looking, but I'll be driving a '67 Chevy 4-door wagon. Not too stealthy.

If I wanted to fit in, I'd get a '69 Camaro. :smoke:

Passengers are allowed .
Helmets are required on the passengers.
Someone will let you borrow one .
You don't have to buy two helmets.

Any helmet will do .
You just need something to protect your noggin .
Motorcycle helmets are fine.
Face shields are not necessary ..

I have a feeling that most people may not own helmets, so I will bring a few extra for people to borrow.

As long as he has a helmet and seat belt on, i dont see a problem.

I really hope there's not. Zach (my 8yo) has attended three events already this year and has been looking forward to RTTH. It was the last place that he's been allowed to ride.
