If you are planning to do PCA events in the Chicago section, you will NOT be allowed to wear a motorcycle helmet.
Bring your car with you! Put the helmet on, and sit in the car, with the top closed. Have your seat in the right position for track driving. Make sure you have proper headroom. This is pretty important if your are tall (above 6'2"). Some helmets are taller, some are more low profile.
If you wear glasses, practice putting on and off your eye wear.
Also, purchase a flame/fire proof bandallera (spelling???). This makes putting on and off the helmet a little easier, and keeps your helmet cleaner.
In Barrington is Northstart Motorsports. The owner is John Ruther. He is a past section president, and one of the Chief Driving Instructors for our section. He has a great helemt selection, and may even offer a discount (10%) to PCA member. I bought my HJC helmt from them last year.
