Doesn't need to be anything specific for a track day but if you fancy getting into MSA competition events then it'd be worth getting a BS one. Either way, get the best you can afford.

It's probably worth giving Alyn at ASP a call for advice.

Mine is British standards approved type B which I think is unsuitable for MSA events a Type A is recommended, Although for track days I think most helmets would be fine but better to buy a decent one which covers all bases rather than one which 'will do' as I now need to get another for sprinting events :?

I've got a Sparco Club open face - really pleased with it - comfortable, not hot to wear and A approved.

cheers for the help might spend a little more money and get a good one.
