New Safety Equipment Requirements

HELMETS

ISR Certified helmet requirements are: SNELL 2015, or ECE 22.05 European.

RACE CEIVERS

All oval classes except 120 will be required to wear operational race-ceivers during competition. This will allow the race director or his designate to communicate restart order, possible pending mechanical failures to drivers, and relay information on driver conduct during a event. This will be mandatory at all USSA events. Please source your race-ceiver locally and have with you at the track when competing. Since they are plentiful and used in most car racing organizations, obtaining one should be a simple task. USSA will keep several on hand in case yours fails during a event. Rental of the unit will be done by leaving your driver’s license or a valid charge card with USSA, Rental will be $50.00 per event, if needed. Race-ceivers are normally sold in the $100.00 to $160.00 range depending on ear piece, so it is your best interest to obtain one before the season and have it ready with your helmet and Safe-Jac. USSA will stock spare batteries for sale for the units at $2.00 each. Please prepare ahead of time so you can comply with this new rule.
