It seems to me that since head mobility is not an issue in an LSR car (no need to look around), then a Hans device is a stopgap measure to something that could just be built into the car. Why not jus

Nolan White had damage to his neck that resulted in his death. I don't know that the HANS device would have saved him but It sure couldn't have hurt to have one in place. The head is a big weight att

Dick, think of your head as a 15-20 lb mass with its CG just about center. When you stop abruptly that mass pivots about the CG or slams forward. Either your chin or the helmet front hits your sternu

But cars have hit "a wall" at Bonneville when a front part of the frame digs into the salt and pitches the car up. Both of Howard's streamliner's were built to avoid this. For streamliner's, the othe

I'm not saying that the concept of the Hans device isn't good, I'm just saying that instead of being a big collar with straps to the helmet, the helmet ought to be fit tightly into a "socket" in the

I think an air cylinder wouldn't have enough damping to do the job; it would be far larger than a fluid- filled damper. Just guessing, though. Regards, Neil Tucson, AZ Good idea Neil....how about ai

Fascinating thread.......... Just an engineer's viewpoint here. Keep in mind that the compressed gas in an air cylinder will have a lot of "spring" and likely not much dampening. Different than a liq
