But no you can't use that. It must be SNELL approved to run with any group. Many will let you get by with an M rated helmet, they are OK for autox. But to get on the big track you need an SA rated unit. Some groups will let you go back up to two ratings - helmets are listed with something like an M95 or SA00 etc - the current rating is M/SA05 and there is no reason not to get the most current.

A quick check on any of the online rules from SCCA, NASA etc will tell you what you need.
