I need to buy a Snell rated Helmet, and it doesn't matter if it's M or SA, or anything, long as it has a Snell rating, right? So, once I buy that, and show up, as long as my car passes inspection, I'm good to go, right? They can't turn me down for never doing that racing school stuff?

I'm just listing common mods here...
You can be CS with the following allowed mods are (not an exacting list but pretty close to it): cat-back exhaust, 2 way adjustable shocks, 1 sway bar, oem crash/camber bolts, race compound tires (DOT approved).
If you are running street tires (140 + treadwear), I'd recommend RTR-C Stock (RTR-CS). RTR = Road Tire RWD. This is an interim class to help pave the way for C-Street which will debut next year. Basically Stock Class is going to street rated tires only.
You are in STX if you've added
any of the following: air box, non-solid brake rotors, brake calipers, larger rims, coil-overs, springs, aero aids, 2 sways, strut tower brace, bushings & other things not listed for stock.
You are in SM if you've done any of the following in addition to STX: had a tune, boosted, changed gearing.
There are other classes like Street Prepared but most here won't be in that state of tune.
