Where are you going racing around here that you need a new certified helmet to pass tech? Even when I was at an NHRA tech'd event (only twice in my "career"), they never looked at my helmet.
It's not a matter of passing tech. It's a matter of piece of mind and safety. I just finished up a car for my son. First time ever drag racing. Car is going low 7's in the 1/8 right now. Soon to be going low 6's, maybe high 5's. When your kids want to start racing because Daddy does it, let me know if you put that 20 year old helmet on their heads.
