Mike and All;
This was only an advisory type thing issued as a "heads up" for the regions
and their officials. So far full face helmets are still allowable for Solo2
in airbag equipped vehicles.
And if my memory serves...our region has only 2 full facers out of a total
of 8 loaners. This might be a good time to take inventory of our Solo2
equipment (including helmets) and inform our BOD of what we have and may need in the
near future.

Based on the Reply you you got back from Doug Gill, I understand we are NOT
required to enforce participants not using a Full Face Helmete in a Vehicle
with a functioning Air Bag.
The only problem I see from the Standpoint of DMVR would be from a liability
standpoint.
We (as a club) are providing Loaner Helmets to participants. If we provide
a full face loaner helmet and something happens, What kind of LEGAL problems
would we have being that concerns have been raised about the Full Face
Helmet with Airbags.
