Rather depends on what the required certification is. Is this for competition, track days, or... ?

Blatman,

Helmet will be used for trackdays, karting and maybe some competetion. Is it possible to buy one helmet which can be used in all three disciplines

Thanks

Ross Your right mate - you need to check that a Helmet from Westgate would be suitable for car competition. Trackdays allow bike helmets, not a lot of other disciplines do.

You need a lid with one of the following:

BS6658 Type A

BS6658 Type A/FR

Snell 2005

Anything else will not be legal for MSA competition use.

The most common spec is ECE22, which is the current spec if you are buying a lid from a motorbike shop. ECE22 is not legal for competiton use, but is usually allowed for track days and non competitive karting and the like.
