That's great news

Always wondered about the rules for helmets though. The AS rules and interpretations are a bit of a minefield.

Would these helmets be acceptable I wonder in a closed car. I doubt I would be going any faster than 12.5

Helmet is as/nzs 1609 approved.

Helmets require

AS/NZS 1698 to pass scrutineering .

1609 won't cut it .
