Forum will no longer be utilized!

After facing many challenges with utilization of this forum for many years, the board voted on the evening of 1/12/2026 to stop use of the forum in favor of the modern, more effective means.

Most of our general club organization will now be coordinated via Discord and results from our events along with schedules and announcements will be hosted on our main alscca.net webpage.

What does this mean for the old forum? Well, in short we are going to stop using it. This has been reviewed several times in the past few years, and there has been a desire for some of more tenured members of the club to have the historic content preserved. In an effort to preserve this content, it was discovered that we could not simply export the content to be placed in a modern website. This forum will now become an archive only forum and will not be monitored. If you wish to preserve any of the content, this is your time to search the pages to find it. There is no promise that this content will remain available forever with the fragile nature of this forum.

  • Jr Kart helmets

    After lots of time on Google, all I've found is that I should ask my club about what helmet requirements are for karts. Are Snell M or K allowed?

    4.3.1 Helmets
    Helmets meeting the following standards must be worn while on course:
    All helmets meeting the latest or two immediately preceding Snell Foundation
    standards (SA2015, SA2010, SAH2010, SA2005, SA2000, M2015, M2010,
    M2005, M2000, K2015, K2010, K2005, K98); SFI standards 31.1, 41.1, 31.1A,
    31.2A, 41.1A, 41.2A; ECE R22.05; FIA standards 8859-2015, 8860-2010, 8860-
    2004; or British spec BS6658-85 type A are acceptable.
    Full face or modular helmets shall be worn while competing in an open-wheel
    car, formula car, or kart. Face shield, goggles, or similar face protection (conventional
    eyeglasses are not sufficient) shall be worn while competing in any
    other vehicle with less than the standard-size windshield.

    Formula Junior drivers must use helmets meeting the above, SFI 24.1 (Youth
    Helmets), Snell CMR2007 (Children’s Motorsports Restricted), or Snell
    CMS2007 (Children’s Motorsports Standard) specifications. Also, Formula
    Junior helmets must be of closed face design incorporating full face shields
    and chin bars.


    For maximum protection, helmets must fit securely and should provide adequate
    peripheral vision. The chin strap must be securely fastened. Loaner
    helmets should be available to vehicle occupants not having their own.
