10*10 is still 100, right?  :-)

No matter.  Any Snell rated helmet is pretty much as good as any other
snell rated helmet.  Its comfort and looks options that cost the money.

Myself, I just went with a cheapo open face M95 helmet for $100 or so.
It's not like the helmet matters much for autox anyway.
