Think about what you've spent on brakes, pads, tires, harnesses, possibly a BBK, suspension upgrades
and all of a sudden $865 doesn't seem all that bad when you consider what it's designed to do.

I was sold after reading about that guy who 'nose over tail' flipped like 7 times at Mid-O........

You're right about the $$ we spend on stuff.... It's a bargin when you look at the big picture.

If you believe what you're saying, you should wear a nomex suit, no?
Why no nomex suit? Answer: because the decision is based on what each of us perceives to be the odds that we'll need it.

I've seen a lot of cars hit $hit and only one catch fire......
.... If I had to choose I'd go HANS.
Besides, it's a fashion thing. I need to lose about 20 lbs before my butt will look good in nomex. I'll have to buy one of those butt-masters I see on late night TV.
Seriously though.... I (and probably a lot of us) should take dress a little more seriously. I tend to be Mr. shorts and t-shirt if I can get away with it. Yes, it's wrong. Yes, I know.
