Snell M90 (minimum requirement for 9.90 ET/135 MPH or faster) is the same as 41.1A (open face) and 41.2A (closed face) and do not offer flame resistance. I would recommend Snell SA2000 or it's equivalent 31.1A (open face) or 31.2A (closed face), this offers flame resistance.

90 Is no longer valid starting next year. They have a 15 year limit to them (at least in the NHRA) and as such you need a 95 or later snell rating. If you are going to spend the money on a new helmet, just look at getting a nomex lined one instead of a el cheapo motorcycle helmet. The polyester in a standard helmet isn't to friendly to your face in a fire.
