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.

I didn't realize there were disconnects. Any available through your source?

Steve

Steve you need to get the "quick disconnects" for your HANS. Just tape the tethers to front of the helmet and that way all you have to do is reach forward and yank and it will come undone. I think the quick disconnects are a 50-60 upgrade.

Steve

Yes they are but I don't know if they will give you a break on those though.

Due to the sheer amount of people I have on this now, the vendor will be shipping direct to you. So that means you will get your device at least 5 days earlier. They are charging a 10.00 flat shipping fee.

You have until FRIDAY morning to have your order in. 3/10/06 After that it goes back to full price.

Great job, Boyce.

[jensend]

Boyce really put himself out to make this happen. Considering how important track safety is and how critical the HANS is to it, it's really thoughtful of him to arrange a bargain on them. My wife will be less nervous this season and I'll be safer. Great job, thanks! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

[NataSS Inc]

10 paid for units! WOOT WOOT! So that guarantees the pricing.

Should be at least 6-8 more by friday, minimum. I don't know why people have to wait till the last minute but that seems to be how its working. LOL!

Bad news is that my wife backed out of the deal we had so I could get my HANS. I was waiting to be the last person to oder for this reason, I had a feeling she would do this. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/banghead.gif)

We need 8 people on this and I have 3 commited. PLEASE contact me ASAP if you want in on this. More info can be seen here

The ORR forum seems to be down at the moment. Can we pick different anchor, strap, and padding colors like the big shot pro version? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

[NataSS Inc]

Yes you can get different colors etc. They will just a little more to the price.

[NataSS Inc]

For anyone that cares.

You have until 12 noon PST to get your order in and then this GP is dead.

[NataSS Inc]

This GP is now OVER.

I will have another one in 3-6 months for anyone that didnt make this one.

[jensend]

Got a shipping confirmation via e-mail today (Sun.). Looks like I'll be mounting up the anchors before the end of next week!

[jensend]

My HANS device arrived today. Will be mounting the attachment hardware in the next day or so. It comes with instructions and appears to be a simple process. However, there was a thread with detailed procedures and good pictures posted on C.C. a while back. It's a good supplemental reference. Haven't searched for it , so I don't have the link handy at the moment.

Anyway, A huge thanks to Boyce for setting up this GP. Not only did I save $125, I also now have the most important piece of personal safety gear in time for the start of the season. This is a big relief for me and my family as well. Thanks Boyce!

[jensend]

I'm an internet techno-idiot. Pics will have to wait until my son can get some with his camera and post them. Sorry for the delay.

[NataSS Inc]

I keep torturing myself by looking at the fed ex traking page to see where mine is at. It left ohio yesterday. Its killing me waiting for it.

Not to poison this thread as I have a HANS device as well, but this statement from a non-sponsor website got my curiosity going and was wondering if anybody was familiar with these products:

Many sanctioning bodies are starting to require the use of Head and Neck Restraints. Be sure the one that you choose is SFI-certified. I/O Port now stocks the Head and Neck restraints from Safety Solutions and LFT Technologies. The Hutchens II and the R3 device are both SFI-certified. They both have some advantages over the popular HANS device (which we also can sell you). One advantage is that these devices do not require the safety harnesses to function properly as does the HANS device. This can make the Hutchens II and the R3 devices better in multiple impacts compared to the HANS device.

I've read a bit about both, but neither seemed to have the testing or approval that the HANS has. Your belts should be mounted correctly "to function properly" in the first place. Now, the multiple impact thing does sound good, but in my eyes, you are most concerned with the initial impact as hopefully the rest are less severe by A LOT.
