Rally Crash - Thumbs up for HANS!

After years of circuit racing and rallying, whilst running 3rd fastest overall on day 2 of 5 on the 2009 Targa Newfoundland Rally, my first event using the
HANS device you guys supplied, it happened! We left the road at approx 90mph and did some kind of end over end with a few rolls to end up 300ft in the Bush. Apart from my Navigator’s broken arm we both walked away without any other issues which can only be attributed to the Schroth HANS Device used in conjunction with the correct Harnesses and Sparco Pro ADV Lateral Head Restraint Seats. I’m 100% sure it would have been a very different outcome without the HANS! Thanks for all your help, support and up to date knowledge when the decision was made to purchase HANS Devices for the team, I’ll never get in a race car again without it, it saved us for sure!

Thanks
Roger Tillotson
