For what it's worth. VARAC (Vintage Automobile Racing Association of 
Canada) follows the CASC rules:

Driver Suits: One Piece Suits  - 2 layers approved material with approved 
underware
                               - 3 layer suits
                               - suits carrying an SFI3-2A/3 rating with 
approved underware
                               - suits carrying an SFI3-2A/5 or higher 
rating
                               - multi layer suits with FIA homologation

                   approved material = material approved by ASN Canada, 
FIA,SCCA and SFI

Helmets: Snell 90SA and 95SA - "Full face helmets and shields shall be 
worn by drivers of open cars and are strongly recommended for all 
drivers. A VARAC Supplementary rule states that drivers of all cars 
(including closed cars) must wear eye protection conforming with CASC 
regs (Eyglasses and sunglasses must be made of shatterproof material.
