Default With the speeds we were hitting at VIR and considering high HP tracks like Road America,

I decided to order a HANS device for the 2007 season. Got the professional series, which is lighter than the economy model.

I just can't justify spending all the money I do on the HP upgrades for the **** and not get something like this. It may not be for everyone and of course we all participate at varying levels, but I feel a little better knowing I'm doing all I can to maximize my safety.

Default When/if I start running a cage car, I plan get one as well. The crumple zones of a modern car....

make feel safe enough. Although without full Team Janica Racing support, I will likely get the econo model.

Default Great idea for your car

Not that anybody couldn't use it, but with your HP to weight ratio.....good idea.

If it ever had to save your life, it would be the cheapest insurance ever.

How much is one? You have to hook it to your seats? Or is it just to your body?

I was looking at them at Northstar a couple months ago for ~$900 IIRC.
