As for helmet, IIRC it must be Aus standard approved for track work. In most cases the helmet rules are slightly more relaxed for amature motorsport than at the local drag strip. I would suggest a search to check the current regs covering Drag requirements to guarantee you purchase a helmet that covers both to ensure best value.
FWIW, I bought a helmet from a local bike shop for $60 that meets all the standards but I do wear a nomex balaclava underneath.

Ok sweet! That's exactly how much the fellas hear at our local bike shop said a basic helmet would cost me.
With weather I think it only topped 8* here today! Was a bloody fresh miserable day here but!
