Once again you are wrong.
The letter from Keith Copeland, you really should know the players - get a program, which was read at last Friday's board meeting stressed the fact that the R3 device he was wearing saved his life. Check with your source, he was in attendance, you weren't.
This letter is what spurred the modifications to the rules this past weekend.

If a head restraint system in and of itself was adequate, the dragster and stock seats shown in the other thread would not be designed the way they are. These seats cocoon the head to provide lateral head support because head restraint systems by themselves are inadequate to this task.
You really, really need to get a rule book and read it before you start posting.
I've REALLY REALLY seen what gets past tech inspection.
That's a very dangerous comment to be making. We all know the rules and regs as they stand now and a simple email to the appropriate people clarifies any potential areas of difficulty with said rules and reg.
You seem to be suggesting in your reply that the inspectors allow sub standard safety equipment to pass tech......as if they would ever compromise our safety.
Anyway, back on topic. I have recently been emailing Dan Wright to clarify on seat safety and he was very definite on what is an acceptable MINIMUM standard and the seats and restraining systems are certainly up to the standards of all other motorsports, in some cases exceeding them by a country mile.
Bob, is there a link I can look at a D-cell device in as that sounds like exactly the sort of system I want for the MG.
