If anyone here has been considering a HANS device, this might be the incentive you need.

For those of you that have wanted a HANS but have steered clear of them because of price, here is your chance. Pricing on these is generally 865.00 regardless of where you go. And then some of them want to charge you to install the achors.

I have made contact with a licensed HANS dealer and he has agreed that he would work with us on the price if I got a few people on board w/ me. I HAVE to have one for the upcoming ORR season. I will have final pricing for 5 and 10 people tonight and can email it to any interested parties. This will include mounting of the anchors if you ship the helmet to him. Other wise you can do it on your own. It does come with instructions on how to do it.

I am hoping to get at least 10 people on board to drive the price down as far as possible. The more the merrier.

As it sits I have 4 definates and 3 "show me the pricing".

The dealer willing to do this understands that not all of us out there drive 200K prepped track only cars and don't have the budgets for HANS. But also knows that some of usout there with the "low budgets" need and want them. So he was willing to work something out, IF I could generate the interest.

If you are on board with this, please post here or PM me.

This is a serious safety item guys and it doesnt take much to bang yourself up. Think about it. I will be purchasing one REGARDLESS of how many take advantage of this deal. It would just make swallowing the price alot better with a few people on board.

The ONLY reason that it is here and not in another forum is so more people will have a chance to see it. Since this is a failry expensive safety item and none of our other sponsors carries the item its going to live here unless someone has a problem with it.

Hi,

I use one and it is a PITA. Difficult to fasten the straps to the helmet even when standing out of the car. Difficult to remove the fasteners. Difficult to get into the car. VERY difficult to get out of the car with it attached (did I say it was hard to get out of the car w/it on?)

In the event of a fire, I'd be toast. I have to REMOVE the HANS to get out of the car. Quite possibly, necessity would be the mother of invention, and I'd find a quick way other than removal, but it isn't easy at all. I've tried to simulate emergency egress and I've become stuck and required help.

That said, I use it, but don't like it or find it user firendly. BTW, the written instructions SUCKED and I let them know about it. They asked, "Did you follow the CD? I said no, I followed your easy to read, difficult to follow written instruction.

Wow, I installed my anchors last week and I thought it was rather easy following their thorough instructions. I just set aside a half hour or so to make sure I did it right. I also thought it was easy to get the HANS on and off while attached to the helmet. I'm not sure about the entry/exit into the car but I'm assuming that if it was flaming HOT in the car I'd get out in a hurry (although I don't have a full cage yet).

I really don't see what is hard about taking it on and off.....we'll see! It only took about two seconds with the tethers attached to the helmet (I have the standards, not quick release)
