Before you get that 2 if you do.

Yeah, but I don't have an SCCA license or Helmet. But I'd love to before I get rid of her.

You don't need either

I figure if we both go early we can get a loaner helmet and share it

Really? Oh wait, this is a Miata thing, not a sanctioned SCCA thing, right?

Yeah it's not SCCa, even if it were SCCA you don't need a license to do solo.

All membership does is give you lower entrance fee's and a subscription to the mag.
