I've been letting my race group know about the NJ 2015 helmet rule. Someone
asked if Virgina, which they thought had similar state rules for
motorsports would be doing the same thing. Anyone know if VIR will have the
same restriction next year? I've never raced (yet) in VA so I have no idea
how things run there.

thanks
