BMW Sport Integral ACU Gold?

[rup5555555]

Happy Easter!
I just purchased a BMW Sport Integral helmet from South London Motorcycles (£99 in sale - a great deal) soley for use at track days. When I got home I remembered that motorsports needs ACU Gold sticker but I could not find one on the Sport Integral - is it ACU Gold and just needs a sticker? Or is it useless for track days?
Thanks
Rupert

I was once given a ACU gold sticker after my helmet was checked by a ACU steward at an offroad event...That was five or six years ago you could contact them and see if this is still possible

Do you think they would stop me riding a track day? I've never been checked before - anyone else had a helmet scrutinized at a track day?

Contact the ACU, find out where your nearest ACU Scrutineer is based, get in touch with him/her and arrange to meet up to have your helmet inspected and stickered.

Alternatively, contact your nearest bike/helmet custom painter, preferably one that paints helmets for racers, bung them somewhere between five and ten quid and get a Gold ACU sticker. DAMHIKIJKOK.......

Never - Snetterton twice, Donnington GP, Goodwood (before they banned bikes) Brands twice and Cadwell Park. All with a variety of companies - Focussed Events and by far the best: Rapid Tracks - great blokes and a complete lack of w*nkers attempting to punt you off at every corner.
