For those that asked about PCA CR rules, this is what I see in the '09 Rules.
3. Helmets must be certified in accordance with one of the following standards: SNELL SA2000, SNELL SA2005, FIA 8860-2004, SFI 31.1, or BS6658-85 type A/FR. Helmets must have the driver’s name on the rear and have the approved PCA Club Racing Inspection sticker displayed on the left side. It is recommended that helmets be replaced or relined after 5 years of actual use.

If this the general consensus, purchasing a SA 2005's will satisfy the requirements until they are due for replacement. At that point, SA 2010's will be the norm and easy to find.
