I'm thinking of buying a HANS Device for the track.
Anyone using one? How does it feel when in the car? How restrictive? Thanks, Bill P. |

I bought a Hans device earlier in the year and really like it. Since I am getting old and it is hard to get into and out of the 914 with the door bars, so I put it on once I am inside and then attach the helmet. It is easy to hook and unhook and I did try getting out with it and the helmet and I did it okay. The only restriction it causes is some head turning restriction which hasn't caused any problems. It does spread out the load of the shoulder belts so after a race weekend my sholders don't feel any after effects of the belts as they used to. When I bought mine I had a race supply shop fit me and install the helmet fasteners which never hurt the custom paint job on the helmet. I'd say get one as it is pretty cheap insurance.
