SCCA and NASArequire Snell M/SA/K95 or better for autocross/performance driving/time trialsand Snell SA2000 or betterfor road racing:
SCCA Rules:
Autocross-
http://www.scca.org/documents/Solo%2...7SoloRules.pdf
Helmets meeting the following standards must be worn while on
course: All helmets meeting the current or two immediately
preceding Snell Foundation standards (SA, K, or M), or SFI standards
31.1A, 31.2A, 41.1A, or 41.2A are acceptable.
Performance Driving Events/Time Trials
http://www.scca.org/documents/Club%20Rules/2007TTR.pdf
For PDX Events (Level 1):
All participants shall wear long sleeves and pants (at least 100% cotton
material recommended) and shoes which fully cover the foot at least to
the ankle while on course. Helmets which meet Snell M-95 requirements
or higher are required.
For Club Trials Events (Level 2):
All participants shall wear long sleeves and pants (at least 100% cotton
material recommended) and shoes which fully cover the foot at least to
the ankle while on course. Helmets which meet Snell M-95 requirements
or higher are required. Event organizers may include any of 10.20 sections
1 through 8 in their supplemental regulations.
Road Racing
http://www.scca.org/documents/Club%20Rules/GCR2008.pdf
Crash helmets approved by the Snell Foundation with Snell sticker
2000 or later Special Application (SA2000), or by the SFI with a
SFI Sticker 31.1a for open faced helmets and a SFI sticker 31.2a
for closed faced (if purchased prior to 12/31/04), SFI 31.1 (if
purchased after 1/1/05), or by the FIA standard 8860-2004.
NASA Rules:
http://www.nasaproracing.com/rules/ccr.pdf
HPDE/Time Trial/Open Track:
Have proper safety equipment, as per the CCR (Section 11.3—primarily anM95 or better helmet. The equipment requirements are no different than inHPDE.)
Road Racing:
All drivers are required to wear an approved helmet while on track. Helmets must be
approved by Snell and carry a sticker of Snell 2000 ( SA2000) or better*. Ratings other
than that of “SA†(Special Application), i.e. “M1995, M2000â€, are not acceptable.
*Alternatively, helmets with an FIA certification of 8860-2004 are acceptable. It is
strongly recommended that any helmet sustaining any substantial impact be replaced.
Hope this helps clear things up.

As to the Snell requirement, are you referring to "M", "K", or "SA" Snell certification? Makes a big difference, you know.
